This European Pulling Tractor Rules But What The Heck Kind Of Engine Is Making The Power?

The tractor you are going to see in this video is named “Metal Boy” and it pretty much rules. The video contains a walk around and then it shows the tractor pulling the sled successfully down the pulling course. The big question we have surrounds the engine. Specifically, what the hell said engine is. Obviously, this is a V8 engine and it is running on alcohol but we’re wondering if this was once a diesel that has been converted or something along those lines? Each cylinder has its own little valve cover like a Cummins diesel does and it has a really awesome looking intake manifold on it with a large central log and four legs descending from that central point in a straight shot to each cylinder.

When you watch the tractor run you can see the driver working the brake pedals to control the machine as it careens down the track with the front end a couple of feet in the air. We weren’t staring at the guy’s feet, rather we were staring at the engine and his bobbing foot got our attention. We’re really hoping someone out there can identify this engine because it is really driving us nuts!

CAN YOU IDENTIFY THE ENGINE POWERING THE “METAL BOY” TRACTOR?
