I see that 99 people have registered for the ATIS forums.

Next person will put us into 3 digit territory!!!

I know it sometimes takes time for these things to take off, but it has been surprising how slow this forum has been in attracting posters.

Tomorrow it will be one month since Larry joined the group as the 99th member.  It will be a whole month without adding a single subscriber or reaching the 100 mark.

George, it sure is a little slow. Maybe everyone is busy going to auction sales. Like this one for example.

Just imagine the sound of that Ford V8!

Ralph,

Didn't find the auction with the V8 Ford.

Guessing you're referring to an 8N with a flathead V8 conversion.

Of course I've also seen a lot of MH 55's with hopped up V8 used for modified tractor pulling.

No George, it was actually a JD model A with a Ford 302 engine installed. Big rear tires and tricycle front end. The link still works for me.

Thanks Ralph!

It works for me.  Guess I just missed it when I first looked at the link.  I generally skip over JD stuff as I have little interest  in JD tractors or engines.

First time I've seen a JD modified with a V8.  Pretty big jump going from 2 cylinders to 8.

Would be interesting to see how they transfer the power from an engine inline with the frame to the JD transmission.  Got to have a 90 degree bevel gear or something like that to make it work.
