This one’s for the tractor men. No highlight reel, no rush — just a proper workshop tractor chat that didn’t make the cut in last week’s #onThePull driver video.

We’re in the shed with Ken Cooke, a man who needs no introduction if you’re into Fords, Countys, Muirhill's, tractor pulling, or pushing mechanical diesel engines way further than they were ever meant to go.

Ken & Allister Cooke break down:

The Genesis engine and why it’s going into the Ford 8830
Where real horsepower comes from (and where it starts costing money)
Mechanical pumps, turbos, limits, and why some engines live while others grenade
Pulling setups, gear choices, reliability vs bragging rights
Why some “rules” exist — and where the real danger line actually is

This is pure tractor talk — engineering opinions, real numbers, hard-earned experience, and zero social-media polish. If you like diesel smoke, mechanical logic, and conversations that only happen when the cameras don’t usually roll, this one’s for you.
