Getting away from the Thresher scenario and onto a silage blower.My dad had a Fox apron feed Silage Blower and our silos all were 60 footers.The one tractor we had that would hum while powereing the blower was our Oliver 88. No loud tractor howl and the blower would just hum. We had a couple of old Oliver 77"s and both had downspout straight pipes.If the occasion came up where one of the 77"s had to run the blower boy what a howling could be heard 1/2 mile away. The 88 ran so smooth and it had a good muffler. It also must of had a different size pully than the 77"s as it only had to run 1/2 throttle to throw the silage 60" up the pipe into the silo.
