Case-IH Puma 165 specs: hp, weight, years

CNH 667TA/EBN or FTPIndustrial F4DFE613M*B. The manufacturer claimed 164.7 horsepower. The only laboratory test on record is of one version: OECD Test 2410 measured 163.2 hp at the PTO of the Puma 165 (4 WD); OECD Test 2971 measured 151.3 hp at the PTO of the Puma 165 CVT. Compared at the engine's rated speed, where the brochure figure is quoted, the shaft gave 139.7 hp — 15.1% below the claim.
