These machines WERE monsters in thier day, and still are by today's standards. The biggest downfall was White didn't build heads big enough to feed these machines; - 8 rows of corn wouldn't even tap thier capacity potential, and 260 horsepower wasn't enough to utilize thier true potential. Overall, a winner of a machine from the time they were introduced. White did an excellent engineering and development job on these combines prior to thier introduction, although there were numerous minor field changes within thier first 2 years. Massey built a similar prototype machine called the TX903 about the same time, although that machine never made it to market! (too many patent infringements)
