Case-IH MX 100 specs: hp, weight, years
CUMMINS CDC 6T-590 six-cylinder diesel or CDC 6T-590 or Perkins 1004-4T HR or PERKINS-FASTRAM 1004-4 Turbo-HR diesel. The manufacturer claimed 98.6 horsepower. The only laboratory test on record is of one version: OECD Test 1692 measured 90.9 hp at the PTO of the MX 100 (4 WD); OECD Test 1693 measured 92.5 hp at the PTO of the MX 100 (4 WD); OECD Test 1704 measured 91.2 hp at the PTO of the MX 100 (4 WD); OECD Test 1939 measured 82.3 hp at the PTO of the MX 100C (4 WD). Compared at the engine's rated speed, where the brochure figure is quoted, the shaft gave 86.1 hp — 12.7% below the claim.

How much horsepower does an MX 100 have?
The only laboratory test on record is of one version. OECD Test 1692 measured 90.9 hp at the PTO of the MX 100 (4 WD); OECD Test 1693 measured 92.5 hp at the PTO of the MX 100 (4 WD); OECD Test 1704 measured 91.2 hp at the PTO of the MX 100 (4 WD); OECD Test 1939 measured 82.3 hp at the PTO of the MX 100C (4 WD). For the MX 100 as a whole the figure is the 98.6 hp claimed for the engine, which is not power at the shaft.
