Farmall 1066 Dyno test
I did some engine work to this lovely 1066 and this is the dyno test that I always do to bring the tractor up to operating temperature and maximum Horsepower to check everything over for operation, and for leaks. It is at stock fuel delivery setting and pulled 145 HP. When looking at the dial on the dyno, look at the HIGH scale which are the smaller numbers. The dyno is more accurate using the high scale at higher ratings. Thanks, and enjoy!!

Sounds like a good deal to me! The TAs are reasonable to repair and they last a long time!

Yes way, I think you just got lucky by finding a nice 1066 Turbo for around $10,000.
My 966 has more than new paint. It is in very good condition. It has hardly ever been pulled hard. It was mainly used to pull a bush hog.

That sure is a nice 1066 Turbo. I have a 1974 966 Hydro in that’s in almost the same condition as yours. I’m gettin ready to sell it, but I don’t really have any idea what to ask for it. I’ve seen other 966s sell for around $10,000 but, I don’t know how many hours they had. Mine has 5,874 hours on it. Do you think I could get $11K for mine?

The 145hp is the same that the 1466/1486 is rated at the pto

Great shape! My older brother had a 1086 when he was farming. I don’t know what the hp was But I think 180.
