Thanks for the information Ed.

I have a Fairbanks Morse ZC 6-7 HP throttle governed/ hopper cooled engine 
that I need to put to work doing something.  Looks like I could probably 
power something in the same size and weight range as what you have.

What I really want to do is belt it to a line shaft and run lots of stuff 
off it but first I have to build a shop that would lend it's self to that.
I have two old blowers.  One is a cast iron frame centrifugal.  The other is 
an old roots blower (6-71 Detroit style),   I salvaged both out of an old 
machine shop.  They were running on a line shaft providing air for 
ventilation and for an old forge many years ago.  I'd like to hook them up 
again.   In the mean time  a tractor like yours would make a nice project.

Charlie
