Nice job! Looks like a lot of $$$$. Looking like a nice build! That's a darn fine shop too, I might add. Wish it were mine!

I got the front hitch done yesterday
The icebox is done, and the turbo to intake manifold for when we are not running the air water CAC is doneish
Water injection manifold mounted and plumbed up to it, need to finish plumbing the other side of it though.
And all of the sheetmetal and such is off getting painted.

no, this tractor is a ground up build for the 640 Hot Farm Classes and 640 Pro Farm Classes. The tractor was a stock farm tractor that was boughten for the purpose of turning into a puller. Its never been pulled and the new engine has never been started.
The 640 Pro Farm Class makes between 1200-1400hp.

Heres a video of it running properly now. Found out we had a minor issue with the timing. It was set for TDC of the exhaust stroke on the #1 versus compression stroke. So 180* off on the pump, 360* off on the motor. Oops. So we pulled it apart and switched it to the proper setting. Runs like a top now.

Looking to make its first hook tonite. Still have a lot to finish up, a little more wiring, plumbing the water side of the Air water intercooler, plumbing the water injection and mounting the water injection tank, finishing the new steering setup since it broke a couple days ago during the test drive, mount the ski-bars, mount the secondary hitch, mount the explosion shields, then check for leaks and fix as necssary.
Gotta be on the trailer leaving by 5pm tonite, should be a long hard pressed day, heres some pictures or the progress. Literally nothing got done on the tractor since a couple months ago when we got it started up and running. Wednesday of this week we started working on it again and havent stopped.
