Case-IH CX 80 specs: hp, weight, years
PERKINS-FASTRAM 1004-40 Turbo-HR four-cylinder diesel or Perkins 1004-4T HR. The manufacturer claimed 82.9 horsepower. The only laboratory test on record is of one version: OECD Test 1896 measured 73.0 hp at the PTO of the CX 80 (4 WD). Compared at the engine's rated speed, where the brochure figure is quoted, the shaft gave 71.3 hp — 13.9% below the claim.
