I don't think your 460D is going to run that 8' drum mower.
Does your 460 have fast hitch? If so, what are you going to use to convert to 3-point? I bought a 6' drum mower some years back and before my 3-point tractor was delivered I put it on my 460 with fast hitch - that's A LOT of of weight hanging off the back of a 460, especially with conversion arms in between! My front end was bobbing off the ground when I'd pick up the mower. You'll need weight on the front of the 460.
Trying to make your 45 hp 460 run a 65 hp rated 8 footer??? It would probably do it, but you'd be running wide open. That's a 20 hp deficit!
Really, just get the 6'3" cut. You will be AMAZED at how much faster you can go. Goodbye, sickle bars, hope to never see you again. Even on a haybine - what a drag. With a drum mower you can go as fast as YOU can stand it. They are simple, RUGGED machines. I love mine. Get the 6'3" cut, you'll be happy, and so will your tractor.

A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
