Chrysler Slant 6 225 Cubic Inch. Great, strong engine, hard to kill them. They made tons and a lot were used in various farm equipment, including a 300 Massey combine, and lots of balers.
I’ve got a 76 dodge d100 with one in it
300 I6 Ford would like to say, "we took that title"
That engine was the mainstay for Dusters and Darts!
I think you've just created the world's biggest zero turn mower
😂
As a machinist by trade, I applaud and love your ingenuity and mechanical knowledge to put this together. I love watching your family’s farm, it’s always a pleasure, and I think of it a relaxing music. If I could be a farmer, I’d love to be one like your family’s. Keep up the great content, and God bless you with fortune and bumper crops
to the Welker family thank you for feeding America without you we cant eat thank you for the great food!!
That thing is so cool! I love home made ingenuity. That pic of your mom on that years ago is so cool!! As for the engine it looks like the Chrysler/Dodge slant 6
Hello Walker farms I am a huge fan of MN Farmer and when he teacher 200,00 subscribers he asked his fan to extend the courtesy to Walker Farms for putting your support to him. I did this and I most say This is Farming a whole new level. It brings the past to present day. I grew up around my Grandfather's Tobacco farm that did a little of every thing and my uncle's Grain and little of everything farm. Both farms were Farmall and International. Later Highschool and early audit hood I worked on hayfarm with racehorses which was Ford tractors. I got out of farming and went into EMS. At 50 I sure miss my youth of farming. Your CZcams channel is so over the top. Thank you and Your farm for giving back my youth. Thanks to Zach I discovered you and your family. Your new fan

Ingenuity at it's finest. And better than a live streaming video. Thanks.
I like it! We had an old Holland self propelled hay bine where you pushed the steering wheel forward to go faster and then of course turned it left or right to steer and MAN OH MAN was it touchy!! I fixed fence more than a few times because of tail swing!!
Lovely kit awesome fun stuff nice seeing it still alive and put to use
Pretty nice little mower❗️ You can even get up close and personal to all the sitting machinery❗️‼️👍
225 ci Chrysler slant 6. Had one in my very first car. A ‘66 Plymouth fury III. real neat project!
Really cool old combine/thrasher mower love it.
I see a new member to your Big Bud Fleet ...... Baby Bud
Make it a mod please
Collin Williams MP only makes maps and objects, not machines.
FordFarmer97 Photography yeah but he mite have contact with other moders
Collin Williams Not really, I talk with them on discord quite frequently.
Make it out of a little loader tractor
Cool use for an old swather! Nice video!
I come from Bavaria and i found your Videos Great!👌
every antique tractor ive seen has a trademark of a cracked steering wheel but yours is the first to be bandaged with an extra large hose clamp, it looks like its holding up well
Wow a mopar 225 slant six. The leaning tower of power! Nice mower project!👍
So fresh and so clean
That’s awesome man love the innovation
Very good video. Love it when you can just make old stuff just do anther job that way u not really throwing money away u just ues what u got. I'm all ways looking for stuff like that to make stuff more fun as well. Rather just going out and buying that just to do that one job around the farm and u are sat right up and can c every thing. I think it's a great bit off kit. From Andy in UK
Farmer ingenuity at its finest 👍
Awesome now give it a big bud cab and paint it white to match the fleet :P
I feel loved that people actually care about us farmer 😍😁🇺🇸
That is a 225 slant six. I had one in an old '65 Dodge Dart, my first car. Great little engine.
Oh man, that is cooler than ice cream. The Chrysler 225 slant 6 was extremely popular engine, I think it’s one of the top 10 engines of all time. They ran about 145 hp or so. My mother had two Dodge Darts, they both had the 225 slant 6 in them, good old motors.
Nick, I would really like for you to talk about in a video how you guys got all of your mechanical skills. I noticed that there’s basically nothing you and your brother and Dad can’t do mechanically. Very impressed with what the Welkers can accomplish!
Those old slant 6 Chrysler motors are excellent motors. Wish I could find an old truck with that motor.
Like a merry go round!!! Nice Hollywood
Love your videos!
Very interesting! Thanks for the explanation!
Great build!
very creative , it gets the job done, I believe there is a digital rev counter that works by sticking a label/tab on the rotating part and counts it with a hand held scanner .
Same thing as a White 6200 self propelled haybine, we had one for years with a 12 foot header, was a great machine. Cut a lot of hay with it. Finally the header just fell apart on it.
Omg Hollywood macguyver creator of the coolest stuff!! Totally envious!!
This is very similar with something my brother an i threw together. We used a logging tractor (a Ford of some description originally, it's been modified successively by at least 10 people) the really tall ones and made a deck from some scrap bits and a aircraft hanger door section. Thing's a death trap, but does its work, cuts very well in fact, we even use it to cut shrubs and whatnot by engaging the killer mode (IE lifting the front of the deck and exposing the blade). Fabricobling is the best.
aserta I believe the piece of equipment you need is termed a hydroaxe,a most dangerous machine.

Frankensteins monster does a pretty good job. Lol! Thank you for sharing. Take care.
Hi, I'm in the UK and play fs17, that's how I heard about Welker farms, I thought it was a fantasy map until I came across you guys on youtube, needless to say, you're amazing, your youtube vids are brilliant and you make farming seem like real fun, even though I bet it isn't sometimes, you even manage to come across as really nice guys, thanks for all you do to bring a little sunshine into our lives.
The venerable Chrysler 225 ci in Slant 6. Not a powerhouse but hard to kill. Its been used in everything. Cars trucks boats generators, you name it.
Have you ever done a video on the combine graveyard? I would like to see it.
The trusty ol Slant Six. 😍😍👍
You welker boys are something else lol
Your contraption is clever an all, but I think I'll stick with my Ferris zero turn with an airseat if for no other reason than to save space in the garage. LOL
Nice!
That’s awesome!
It's a Chrysler 225 slant six, used on a lot of ag apps in the 60's like a Case 700, 900 and 960 combine. I think maybe a Massey 310. Good motor for it's size, will run forever if taken care of.
Dodge slant 6 225 - spotted it right away. Pretty sure I've had those in about every type of Chrysler from the 60's up into the early 70s. You just about couldn't kill one. Cool mower!
hey guys that is a cool mower ,, cheap and simple ,,works good too from the look of it
good use of an old machine that would otherwise be in the boneyard or cut up for scrap
as for the the engine ,, this is a Chrysler 225 Slant 6 ,, it is a very well built durable engine and was made for many years all the way into the early 1990s ,it was also known as the super 6 ,, it was used in generators by the military , and all types of industrial machines from combines and mowers like this to large water pumps and power carts to start airplanes ,,it was a very dependable and economical power plant ,,easy to work on and parts were readily available at any chrysler dealer
this is a far cry from my wide area mower which i bought USED and paid $25000 for it ,,I mow a lot of pastures and do a lot of finish mowing ,,my big mower is a 1994 TORO 580D grounds master ,,it's powered by a 125HP mitsubishi turbo diesel ,,originally it had a 90hp yanmar diesel but i t was under powered ,,and I ended up buying a new engine for it,, the updated engine was for a newer toro mower ,, it's a monster , 4 wheel drive ,with rear steering ,totally hydraulic driven ,, it has 2 folding side wings each a 60 inch independent mower with a 72 inch front deck ,,I can also use it as a dozer to push dirt or plow snow ,, and i also have a 6ft snowthrower that will clear 18 inches of snow while the machine moves at 12mph
I'm excited for y'all's farm on fs17.
Guards? Just put a 'do not touch' sticker there
Thats how we do it in Minnesota
Things a beast put another mower on the other side somehow and really get it done man sweet machine I like it cool quick video keepem comin
McGuyver! Next one w 10ft deck and can double for a deer stand. LOL, back to the 24hours of Le Mans.
I dont even farm but man youre videos are so impressive on information on how farming works, i appreciate every farmer , without you guys the US will be fuck lol
Love you videos
That thing is awesome.
New intro? Awesome
Cool vlog Hollywood
Like this. Way to make those machines work for you.
We have the same swather on our farm, but its badged Sperry-New Holland. Literally the same body and powertrain system. Still use it to swathe oats every year. Just throw a battery on it and go
225 slant 6....nearly unstoppable! Had a few of them over the years. They chew through starters but seem to run forever. Had a Volare wagon that came to me with 200k and we put 300k more on it. Sold it and the new owner had put almost another 100k on it the last time I saw it. I think the chassis rotted out eventually, but that engine would just not die.
I've seen a lot of swathers converted into giant lawn mower mostly Versatile swathers that had 2 to 3 3pt mowers on them the people who built them when through trial and errors but got it working wouldn.t mind building my own.
Well that was interesting like my favorite saying if it looks stupid and works it is not stupid
Info Warlock well I guess you are to
Info Warlock aren't you everywhere Weirdcock?
plz make a vid of the tractor graveyard
echoboy2006 I like to see that also
Chrysler Slant 6 225 common in the vehicles back in the day.
That's the weirdest thing ive seen lately lol. Love it!
Man you need a second mower for the other side. I've got that you can have. Its in buffalo wy if you want it. Wait i mean you can have as long as I get to drive a bud. Lol
Jgthxfyjv
That’s cool and u seen the one where they take a swather and turn it into a forklift too
Love it !
Very interesting great vid
Eyeball engineering at its finest.
Thanks
It's the Dodge/Chrysler 225 slant six. They made their way into many ag applications. Our John Deere swather had one.
As someone else said, it’s a slant six. Bulletproof engine and will last a very long time with proper maintenance. The only problem with them is they will develop an oil leak at the valve cover.
Maybe this machine is the right one to be named Rose Bud, as earlier suggested for Big Brute. Soon Nick you can have your daughter mowing with it. Nice crazy build! Next step is to find a 12 ft pasture finisher deck at some neighbours scrap yard.
nice mower, it would look absolutely amazing with two decks and PTO shafts, and sounds like it could handle it ;P
Awesome machine, looks great 🙂 Only a little bit of paint on it. I suggest the colors of the Big Bud 💪🏻
It is a 225 ci Chrysler slant six...great motor!!!
That’s awesome I love it
In the '70's The Plymouth Volare came with a slant 6 engine that was nearly indestructible and seemed to make a bunch of torque.
Neat, i see a project in my future
love it, I'd like to place an order for one. :)
Had a 655 Massey exactly like your Renn model!
That thing had a slant 6 Mopar in it!! Cool!!!
The funny thing is that this thing is probably more reliable than the modern crap you buy nowdays...
Good idea so you can get to sme of the equipment that gets parked off to the side when not in use plus som stuff has a tendency to get buried if you can't fffffind it/LOL. Nice little mower and then you must have areas that crowds your cutting fields access..... like berry vines
Does the job. Thumbs up!
Had a 1971 Plymouth Duster with the 225 Slant 6
If it hasn't been said already, that's a MoPaR Chrysler Corporation 225 ci, slant-6 engine. These were typically in Dodge Dart and Plymouth type vehicles in the late 60s to somewhere in the mid 80s IIRC.
The engine is basically bulletproof and in all the years I worked with them, I never had much trouble with them. Some minor oil seepage at the valve cover, but, especially with the spark plug well tubes that were later on redesigned integrally into the head and never needed new o-ring gaskets when you changed plugs.
There was a 170 ci version too..... it was used in vehicles with manual transmissions, while the 225 almost always went in vehicles with automatic transmissions and AC, because of the early automatic transmission and AC power sucking losses being greater.
I have 10 acres on my Hamilton property......and not anywhere near the scope of your gear, but I've built my own MOAM [Mother Of All Mowers] with a Kohler 22.5 pancake twin and a JD 48 inch, three blade deck. It runs parallel with the left front wheel of my 1956 Case VAC tractor...... mounted on a boom with the mowing deck swiveling and self steering front tires so it can get 180 degrees around fence posts. The Kohler engine only powers the blades.
I chose that Kohler engine because it has an actual oil pressure system with a filter and a Low-Oil sensor...... and it's what I had........ that's Farmer's I.Q.
You've got your Ford Implement Blue paint..... I've got my Chevrolet Moly Orange.
PS..... we've got rain here today, so I'll send it up to your end of the state when we're done with it. It will most likely be snow when it gets there though.
Make some snow angels for us.... OK?
Good ol’ Marysville, Michigan.
Cool!!
You have a frikin Mopar lawnmower haha. Mopar for life!!
Awesome all need now is some cup holders, umbrella and radio 👍
Nice Bush-Frog!!! LoL
Mow-wow-wow! 😉👍🏻
1980 Renn 2000 Windrower, 14' Wide, 6 Cylinder Gas Chrysler Engine,75R14 Rear Tire
I live in the town that the motor was made in Marysville Mi..... Mi proud
The Chrysler slant six was introduced in 1960 in the cars and light trucks. most industrial lad intros a couple of years. I would guess your swather was built in the mid to late 60s
Hi nice video good work
Add another 5 or 6 foot mower next to that one!
lol
So this is where these amazing, bonkers, mods for Farming Simulator come from!
Thanks for the fs17 map it is amazing
I've been wanting to do this with an old Lastec 12' Articulator...
Nice adaptation.
The leaning tower of power inline 6. We have one in our old Massey combine lol
