Geeze..I knew them suckers were heavy, but at 1000 lbs??? yikes! That would be like dropping in a IHC V8. I had considered repowering one with a Ford 300 inline six or even a Chevy 292 or a AMC 258 six..but those are quite leinthy. Seeing how things go, if I do get the M-37, I will probably take one of the 318 LA engines I have here and stick one of those in it. I also have a NP 435 with a PTO and a NP540 with a PTO. So, I would be able to run the winch if need be. I also have enuff parts here for the 318 it aint funny. I figure with a good running 318 LA, a NP 540, 4.88 gears and 38 inch tires, I should have something that would perform well both on and off road.
