AMC RULES 37,141 #2 Posted January 5, 2014 Humm...one of each would be different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCOOBY 312-h 14 #3 Posted January 5, 2014 i forgot to add. The parts tractors i got for this project were a 310-8, a 312-8, and what im pretty sure is a c-145 automatic. i have to strip the engines, and one of the front axles for the 165 because the one on it is completely shot. i have another 12 sitting in my garage so im thinking 2 twelves, or if i can find a magnum 10 i will throw that at it. This tractor will only be functional for pulling anything via the hitch, tractor pulls, and im going to make it tow other tractors using a wheel lift tow bar. I am going to have to take out the lift mechanism to facilitate both engines, and possibly move the dash back a couple inches. follow this post for more updates soon. craig i was acually thinking about that, put the twelve in the back and the ten in the front to "help it" along. it would be a 22 horsepower beast 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,141 #6 Posted January 5, 2014 I'd think... both of 'em would be pony motors. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCOOBY 312-h 14 #7 Posted January 5, 2014 Well after 4 hours of busting knuckles, a big hammer, and some patience i achieved getting 2 engines, a front axle, a steering bracket, an extra pto, and some tie rods. The next journey is to set the engines down into the frame to see what i have to move or modify. And now i am left with a truck bed full of wheelhorse frames, and random parts.
