YT feature story about Ford?

JDEM · Jul 16, 2019

I thought my memory was going bad. YT feature story says the Red Tiger was 132 cubic inches? News to me.

"The Ford 600 Series tractors began production in 1954, and continued until 1957. Quite similar to the Ford NAA (Golden Jubilee) in design,
it used the same 132 cubic inch Red Tiger engine with 31 horsepower."

IIRC, the 9/2/8N were 119ci;the NAA/600 were 132ci;the 800/900 were 172ci.

NAA and 600 had the Red Tiger 134 cubic inch engines, not 132.

Ford called it a 134, not a 132.

And they would pull the dirt road lose from the highway.

I noticed that, too, in the "brief history". They got it right in the "specs" though. That was a great engine in that size class. I could never figure (other than for sentimental reasons) why anyone would pay nearly the same price for a 9n, 2N or even an 8N when they could get a much better engine and tractor with the NAA or even better with a 600.

I have both (NAA Jubilee and a 641). Very well built engines. I too cannot even compare either to the N series considering the live hydraulics in the newer series on top of the overhead-valve engine.
