I took my 3321 to the dealer to put on the dyno to see if I had a problem. It was turning 38 hp. After they turned up the pump it was turning 62 hp. Its a completely different tractor to use now. Only took about 20 minutes and not very difficult at all.
 
You have just made yourself a 5721 :D

I wonder how long your engine will last cranked up like this?

 
no problem for this engine. the connecting rods are the same as in the 90 hp turbo 4 cylinder engine, and the crankshaft thickness and bearing size is also the same.

Heat wise, make sure you dont have the fine mazed radiator fitted. I replaced the one on our 5245 with a coarse mazed radiator of a 5718, now i never have overheating issues (between 90 to 95C when ploughing with a 16" 3 furrow reversible ;) ) even though i tuned that engine for some extra horses... i expect to get those 60 horses from the 5245 as well...
 
I don't use it for anything very heavy at all. I mostly just pull an 8 ft. bush hog. Only 200 hrs. in 4 years. I mainly needed more power when on the road and come to a hill. It is geared so high in high gear it would just kill it.
