ABOVE IS A PICTURE OF A 1949 FARMALL M WITH THE 264 C.I. ENGINE. THESE TURBO KITS WILL START PRODUCING BOOST AROUND 800 RPM. AT 800-900 RPM THE TURBO IS CAPABLE OF RUNNING 4 POUNDS OF BOOST. AS THE RPM RISES, THE BOOST PRESSURE INCREASES PRODUCING MORE POWER. THE TURBO PROVIDED IS EITHER A GARRETT OR AN AIR RESEARCH. THEY HAVE AN ADJUSTABLE WASTEGATE THAT CAN BE SET ANYWHERE FROM 2-12 POUNDS OF BOOST DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH IS NEEDED FOR THE JOB AND HOW MUCH THE CUSTOMER WOULD LIKE TO HAVE.
THIS PHOTO SHOWS HOW EASILY THE TURBO KIT FITS UNDER THE HOOD FOLLOWING INSTALLATION AND THAT NO MODIFICATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE. ON SOME M MODELS, THERE IS A FRONT HOOD BRACE THAT MUST BE REMOVED FOR TURBO CLEARANCE. THIS TURBO KIT ALSO CLEARS THE POWER STEERING UNITS ON ALL TRACTORS HOWEVER, SOME CUSTOMERS HAVE REPORTED THAT IT IS NECESSARY TO MOVE THE POWER STEERING RESERVOIR, RELATING THAT IT IS NOT DIFFICULT OR TIME CONSUMING.
WE TOOK OFF THE STOCK OIL BATH AIR CLEANER AND PUT ON A STRIGHT PIPE WITH A PAPER FILTER SIMPLY BECAUSE IT SOUNDS BETTER. WHEN HAVING THE PAPER FILTER ON INSTEAD OF THE OIL BATH IT LETS YOU HEAR THE AIR RUSHING IN THE CARBURATOR WHERE AS THE OIL BATH MUFFLES THE SOUND. THE STOCK OIL BATH AIR CLEANER FITS WITH THE TURBO KIT AND NO MODIFICATIONS NEED TO BE MADE. THE OIL BATH WORKS VERY WELL. THE TURBO WILL NOT PULL ANY OIL FROM THE AIR CLEARNER. |
