umm, well first off you would need the standard wieght bars, pulling hitch(preferably adjustable), wheelie bars, pulling tires and wheels, and so on, i see you already have a larger briggs shoe horned in there, but idk if the 3 speed will be willing to take the abuse like a 8 speed with 1 1/8" axles and an 8 pinion rear could, this should get you started, im sure others will chime in as well

heres mine and my friends pullers for some ideas

I asked you in a PM for the numbers off that engine and you never responded.

If it is a model 19 it is only 7 horsepower.

As far as pulling with a 603.... you probably shouldn't. They aren't really the right tractor to "destroy" by turning them into a puller, but it is yours and you can do as you choose.

I know it's already modified a little, but you might find someone who will trade you a newer tractor for the 603 - and they'll probably even let you keep the engine. :thumbs:

Yep. I tried to tell him it wasn't 25hp way back in this topic:

but he sent this to me in a PM:

no its a 25 i got it from my buddy with all the origonal slipps with all the serial numbers

I replied to his PM asking for the numbers but got no response. :thumbs:

I'm not implying that it wouldn't be OK for pulling. The short stroke & long rod = lots of torque for the internal size of the engine - they're just huge on the outside.

yea thats deff not a 25, more or less a 9 to 14, we have a 9 here off the economy we are restoring, but those briggs do have some decent torque
