80 hp with 92-90 injectors I bet. This tractor looks great, I have one myself and built it for pulling. It is now putting out 340 hp with a bunch more room to go. Great job!
I have several Massey Harris 55s. I have a crazy idea of putting a 4 - 53 on one. The Tractor Transmission, knowing Massey, is more than up to the task. Someone tell Me that this is a nutty idea.
the tractors 😊😊in the late 1950s were going 2 more HP so farmers could get more work in a days time ⌚ 😊 the GM DIESEL 😊😊 sounds some like of good its still a horse of a tractor 🚜 😊 even 2 day there was a time when the tractor dealerships had these tractors when they were brand new 😊😊 OMG 6 1 2O24
Noisy and they leak. Wow. So much insight, like that of child. Let's try from someone who loves gm diesels. They are yes loud but extremely strong and great working motors. Torque and power bands on them are beyond compare. And from our 53s to our 92 that my grandfather owns I see nothing leaking cept tears from cat and cummins fans as we blow by them and yes nothing beats the sound of them.
I worked along side the fellow that had our local Oliver dealership in the early 1960's. He had many stories of selling Olivers with these Detroit diesels to farmers replacing their old John Deere A's and B's with newer, higher horsepower tractors...and how fast those farmers were to come screaming back to the dealership complaining about these scarry LOUD tractors that had to be tearing themselves apart. Farmers don't seem to adjust to change too easy, especially with that kind of RPM change and two cycle to boot.
Could run a muffler? These engines when ran with correct oil and general maintenance will rarely let you down ,they shouldn't leak unless your gaskets are shot ,they use a little oil by design.
My Dad had one...Him and my uncle farmed together for years... Also had a Massey F,(no cab)... Both were traded off for bigger and cabed tractors, of which I have better recollection of.. One 1130 MF, and a Minneapolis with a cab. I remember the motor went out on the Minneapolis, I was a passenger.. The steering wheel looked like there was a thousand of them and there was pieces of the motor on the ground...(I was young, but I never forgot that and what it sounded like) The diff' went out on the Massey.. Which led to both being replaced with a 5020 Jd... It payed for itself plus the other two. Ran it for years... It was still running well when traded off on a bigger one...
What a comparison. They might’ve only had one more Cylinder but, unlike the JD two Cylinders, They were perfectly balanced. Also unlike those miserable, antiquated two Cylinders, They were instantly responsive. I have several MF 3 Cylinders ( four stroke not two ) that run very smoothly. The two Cylinder Deere should’ve been retired in 1940 not 1960!
I like those old Olivers you don't see many around anymore
Very smart looking machine, the painter wants praise or 2

Super 99 has to be the coolest tractor that Oliver ever built. The loudest for sure.
1 Super Motl no the 1950 is
Nah. 55s are awesome. 70s are pretty good also.
The bigger Oliver tractors had Detroit diesels in them too.
@@joshuathewelder24 the biggest had a 3208 cat in it

@Brendan M thank you brendan very insightful into what no p u ss. y does to a mf
...great tractor...and another Detroit saved for posterity...should be capable of almost 120 horsepower with the big injectors...

That is cool and my grandpa has supper 99 code of like that
I'd like to hear that tractor plowing
"It's noise y" Hint, there's no muffler.
What is the serial No. I have 55 model also.
is that a muffler or just a strait pipe?
Mr Sollevi You got to have an Oliver tractor on Your property (its green)...
It's only got 1 more cylinder than the 2 cylinder JD poppers !
Is the transmission synchromeshed or how did you downshift ?
What a comparison. They might’ve only had one more Cylinder but, unlike the JD two Cylinders, They were perfectly balanced. Also unlike those miserable, antiquated two Cylinders, They were instantly responsive.

That tractor looks familiar to me
the air cleaners with the "jars" are NOT original.
Its a detroit 3-71
353 detroit
3-71
Actually Oliver put a 371 gm diesel into their Super 99's.
