No way! We have a late model charge cooled MF 850 and it doesn't run the MF 1163 very well. That's with 159 HP, Your engine only has 153 HP. Horsepower is the limit to this machines capacity in corn. We ran an MF 860 (180 HP) at one time where I work and this machine ran the 6 row head excellent, with power to spare. You may be able to turn your power up some, but not without wasting fuel and smoking. If you only grow 100 bushel corn and want to drive slower than mollasses in December, maybe you could do it. Remember, if your beater speed drops below 700 rpm under load, the capacity and effectiveness of the machine will suffer.
