That looks identical LOL. Couple questions, how does it handle that tiller, have you had any problems with it, and does yours have an electric front PTO clutch?
I've had mine for about a week now and so far the only thing I don't like is the lack of room for my feet on it.

Nice, we have 2 1650s that we use to run augers. I really want a turbo 12v cummins in an Oliver. Not sure how well one would fit in the frame of a 16 though. Where did you find the info about the swap for the 17?


It's all about wheel speed and torque.

My dad 1755 was one of the first ones I think it was done in 1990 he bought a new ag non-turbo 5.9, you need a Perkins to 3spd or 2spd bell housing cut the motor mounts out in the frame, cut bottom of the frame alittle to get o the oil plug, make new mount that sit on top I the frame. Alittle piping and alittle wiring and you got one haha, an 1850 is real easy to do i don't know about the 1650 but I have seen a 1655 puller with a 12v, I don't know how good your rear end would hold up

you could always do a 4bt the worth of the tractor abouts doubles if the jobs done right. the 1755 is worth around $14,000-$15,000 but it also has new $2,000 tires on the rear and it has the upgrade larger hydraulic pump.

The tiller is a little much for it but Aslong as your not breaking up sod it works pretty good. Yeah mine has an electric front pro clutch. I got a front mount snowblower and it will throw some snow. My only problem I have had is the foot room as you said other than that it runs great!

I do wish I had a mower for it

Good to know, I guess when I start looking for tillers I will try to find something small.
Any idea where to find that electric front clutch? I called my case/IH dealer and they want $500 :eek:. Mine is missing some pieces of the front electric clutch and I need to find something before the grass starts growing. I might just have to eat that bill at the dealer.
