I have all ways wondered if this would work, so happy to see someone did it. This could save a lot of old tractors from the scrap pile.

Very Cool Guys.There was a guy on yesterdays tractors website a few years ago who found an old abandoned IH on an island and he fastened a roto-tiller engine on the pto and drove it accross the ice in the winter

I picked up so many square bales as a kid on my grandfathers farm. Nice work on the tractor!

Nice setup. It shows on-the-farm-engineering and ingenuity and ability to use what you have to get a job done. I bet its fun to operate and see what its limitations are.

i've got a massey 33 wf i use to push snow, and move things around with a boom lift. the fact that all of this can be done with 13 hp is amazing. good job!

Gotta be very impressed with the way you gave the old tractor ( and the implements) a new life and a very useful one at that. In many ways this is so much more impressive than a new super duper tractor that costs tens of thousands of dollars. And...purple? Of course, the color of kings, lol.

Makes me want to find an old tractor and do something like that. Such a great idea. Nice work guys.

I found this absolutely fascinating that a 13 hp single cylinder engine could do such a good job of driving that tractor and let alone a centrifugal clutch could handle the load . Top job thanks for posting.

Wow I never thought the tractor would do all those jobs very cool build thanks for posting

Great job! I'm impressed with your engineering skills. I would have been skeptical that it could do all that with a 13 hp engine. My hat's off!

That tractor is AWESOME! Great job guys love it! Thanks for sharing!♡

Awesome to see a great working machine fixed by some extremely simple ingenuity and some work.

I've repowered 2 machines, a lap saw and a Troybuilt tiller with the Preditor 212cc. They both start on the first pull and run great. I could buy 4 of these engines for the equilivant Honda.

Good on you for bringing this old tractor back to life and use! The purple color is perfect.

Looks like it gets the job done. You did a good job making it look so well finished & professionally done.

That tractor is awesome love the paint job. Surprised that little clutch works so well. Keep the videos coming enjoyed it.

Hi there this is the coolest thing i have seen in a long time.

Holy shit...2020 and fingers crossed this beast is still working. I suppose you have worked it out and realised the power you need by the chain reduction from engine to transmission. Very good job

Unusual color for a farm tractor. Good job of putting the old gal back to work. Seems to have plenty of pto speed. Maybe you should cover the back of your control panel to keep things dry.

There'll be no mistaking the paint scheme for anything else. Cool!

That’s fantastic man. Love your tractor!

I like the fire extinguisher compartment.

Awesome build. We converted a old New Holland Round Baler into a Rebaler to unroll round bales and feed them into our square Baler. Have a good one

wow, i didnt expect that to work so well. awesome

Amazing what you can do with 13hp , I thought my tractor was small at 68 hp, don't think 13 up would be able to mow

Well done!! I bet it is still running now in 2018.

i too have a massey harris 33. my engine is out pending a rebuild. ive gone through the top end, but need to save up some cash for yhe bottom end. i may "copy" what you did to keep the tractor useful until the engine gets finished....great job!

The original tractor clutch has been gone for 30 years. It is now just the centrifugal clutch on the engine. It works very well though and is simple and was cheap. As far as how long it will last I have no idea. We have almost two years on it now and so far there is no noticeable wear to the clutch shoes or drum. My understanding is that centrifugal clutches sort of last forever and I guess if it does wear out we replace it. I am much more concerned about the motor wearing out first though.

I really like this. I have a 16hp vanguard that needs a job 😂

nice unit. suprised it baled .musta drew down when it tyed. super nice job there.

Gosh dang I’ve never seen a predator engine 13hp run a power take off that fast and work that hard wow

Awesome. Great job on saving that old tractor. Well done 👍

Well done!!! The horn is over the top.

Very fine workmanship! Enjoy it and keep up the good work!

Likely easier on fuel than the original engine lol , well done

I love the the old grass grabbing attachment and bailer!! I have never seen any of this age. Would go perfect behind my 1952 8N 😁

That's what I like to see a couple country boys making things work. Well done frend

Love that you tried it , looks like it works well. An anti friction product called motorkote seems to soak into Metal like the mfg. Claims. I run it in lg. Diesels , cars, sm. Engines , l think the smaller the engine the more they need help to fight friction. Bless you.

Cool stuff thanks for posting!

Looking good looking good looking good in lavender but that's okay which is another kind of purple looking good

Proper gear ratios make all the difference.

I feel like crying in happiness :'}

Can’t believe a 13hp petrol like that will pull a tractor and Baler, and bale at the same time! Whereas a little grey Fergie will struggle to do that!

Hard to believe that just this small engine can make it happen. Keep on keepen on.

Factory purple is a nice touch

Well done!

Very impressive!

I would have never thought of that, either. 13 horsepower is a long way down from the 39 horsepower of the original 33 tractor but, when you consider the weight reduction of the 33's heavy, long stroke engine, the cooling system, the heavy starter and generator, the clutch and bell housing the full size battery, the air cleaner, all the sheet metal and the 25 gallon fuel tank, for lighter jobs, and keeping the ground speed down 13 horsepower can manage.

I just finished repowering an electric golf cart with a 6.5 gas engine. I have a Farmall H with no engine and I'm doing research on possibly powering it with a 22 go harbor freight 670.

wow!now i have seen it all

Way cool! Great job. Your a smart fabrication man

Bro love from INDIA

Would love to see a video on how you built it! THANKS!♡

Man that thing moves right along

Wow that's just Cazy that little engine could do all that!😱

Its so cool this 13 hp engine is better then his original engine😂its a great idea i cant belive that this is the first time i see something like this.

Genuinely surprised it can run the baler

Cool! Built to last huh?

Amazing!!

I would have had to use a 20 hp V-Twin on it but hell its all about gears and torque

I never thought i would see this in this life, thank you and thank you youtube

Similar project here. 49 Massey Harris Pony getting a Briggs and Stratton 600cc 14 hp petrol. Original engine was 12 hp, but 1200cc. Those are not MH colours guys.

An illustration of why tractor WEIGHT is more important than tractor HORSEPOWER.

We actually had one of those old tractors down the road the motor had blown and they wanted too much for a new one as the entire motor was wasted so our neighbor had a chevy v8 283 and rigged it to run and run it did pulled house trailers like a scalded dog and it was an awesome puller due to the addition of an extra transmission

I was amazed that 13 hp was running that baler.

That’s really cool glad you saved it you need to build a stack for it

Thank you!

Son: hey dad I blew up the motor. Has 5 more in the barn. Dad: it’s ok, just throw it in the pile of trash motors, I’ve got another in the barn all ready to go.

Add a big muffler next so you dont need hearing protection. Love it so far

Love the purple

Allies Chalmers WC was the same. 28 hp engine from the factory. Would be light where you need for towing.

Cool video(s) and I like this ingenious solution to the issue of repowering this great old tractor, but I'd prefer a little more engine. Possibly a B&S Vanguard V-twin, or a small diesel in the 15-20 HP range.

I mean it is a tractor kind of, but it sure doesn't look or feel like one. I'm kind of impressed I really like the purple though.

Cool idea! I’m just curious what kind of load it could pull compared to the stock engine.

Great idea!

You know? You can pipe a exhaust system that would make it extremely quiet..

Thanks for the video

Kool.

Curious as to how many centrifugal clutches you've gone through, and how the Chinese engine is holding up? Definitely a good project. Just would have to question the reliability of some of the hard parts. Well done. I hope you used this on your application paperwork for Engineering School.

great job!

I mean i dont like it my myself but atleast the tractor got a new life

Great

Quite a stroke on that man lower cylinder, lol

Cool not bad guy

find a deutz aircooled diesel. they make em in single to 6 bangers

Nothing wrong with innovations,but I draw the line painting it purple

Amazing .

This is really impressive. There must be plenty of old iron out on farms with dead donks ready for rebirthing.

A bit of ballast out front would be good

I would have never have thought of that

Need to add the weight of the original engine to the front-end before it flips over.

I was wanting to see that thing pull a plow, 😂

How is the tractor holding up over the years?

Blah, why did you paint it purple. Cool project!

right on!! do another one with a Yanmar diesel and put a fuel tank off a Gleaner L2 combine for reserve!

Needs a big hood ornament mounted on the nose.

BELLEZA !!!!!

It dont have the same torque as the original engine but it is interesting still

Very cool. Does it have enough gear ratio to pull a plow or a snow blade?

I gota ground drive hay cutter . Can be pulled by horse , 4 wheeler ect.. i think it IH
