@farmerphilly Boost to 180 hp when required under certain sets of conditions,operating speed, draft loading etc. In around 140-150 hp in standard normal operating guise. Nice machine, the modern say 8340 - seems to be little offering from the competition in this weight and power, most have moved to 4 cyl completely in this class this 6cyl s the exception rather than the rule now days. JD have no real equivalent 6 cyl - 6145r and 6155r would be more aligned to compete with the T7 New Holland series.

A dealer (MF I think) recently said their 6 Cylinder range now started at 150hp, and it won't be long until it is 180 and even 200. The demise of the small 6 cylinder is a sad thing indeed. Nothing can replace the working rev range of 6 cylinders.

So it’s a T6070/TSA135 equivalent?
