I don't believe I've seen a twin engine Case, but I'm sure there's one out there somewhere.
You can dream about it Eugen, but you have other projects ahead of it :105:

Right! Plus, I really like tractors that are actually useful.
I'd rather build a twin rear end Case articulated loader. Retirement, here I come! :21:

I have a 99 LeSabre, Beautiful car till you crawl under it and see all of the rot and bits falling off. So I could go big with the 3.8 that's under the hood
I have seen a 3.8 in a large framed Bolens at a tractor pull, Looked cool but it did not do that much better than other rigs even with it triple wide age lug tires.

You can only go so far with the hydraulic package we have to deal with. I don't honestly know what that limit is, but I doubt it could handle a double power plant.
Going to a tandem rear would give you more possibility, but then the limit would likely be the TCV...

They look like they are nicely done. If I was a golfer that would be my cart.

How about a articulated Case with two engines. One powering the front axle and the other powering the rear axle. Please post your ideas on a build like this?

I'm thinking it would be difficult to match the speed of the two axles, and maybe not enough room to have two engines. But how about one engine, of enough power to run a bigger hydraulic pump, which would drive the two hydraulic motors, front and rear? What still bothers me about using Case transaxles is that it's not 4x4, because of the lack of locking the Case differential when needed.
