MIne is gonna need a new heart this year. It really started using oil this spring. Hoping I can make it a bit further. We have owned it for 15 years. When we bought it it had 500 hours on a new engine. tractor has just under 6 500 hours on it. I was thinking of going to an 8.3 Cummins but you got me thinking on that 3306. The biggest thing is the RPM difference the 3208 runs out way faster at 2650 RPM
Another option would be a Cat 3176 or a international DT 466 or a 5 cylinder Detroit 60 series (that may too much jam on the crank though - - - - grin!).
I'm getting to hate electronics so I'd stay away from the electronic versions if possible.
Hopefully not too argumentative but I'd suggest that the 8.3 cummins won't last in that level of power requirement.
