VALMET 8000 POWER
ENGINE DETAIL
The Valmet 8000 features a robust SisuDiesel 620D engine with a notable 402.6 ci displacement, delivering 91.6 hp at a rated speed of 2225 RPM; this enhances its performance in heavy-duty applications. The high torque of 280.3 lb-ft at 1550 RPM ensures effective power delivery for various agricultural tasks, providing an advantage in plowing and towing scenarios. However, the relatively high compression ratio of 16.5:1 necessitates quality fuel to avoid knocking, potentially limiting its operability in areas with fuel quality concerns.
