Massey Ferguson 1655 Horsepower FAQ

How much horsepower does the Massey Ferguson 1655 have?

The listed engine output is 55.4 hp, below the 80 hp benchmark average. That is a lower-power result, so the smarter match is lighter implements and jobs that do not demand more than about 55.4 hp.

How much PTO horsepower does the Massey Ferguson 1655 have?

The listed PTO output is 43 hp, below the 65 hp benchmark average. For real use, size PTO implements below or near 43 hp rather than using a bigger engine-horsepower number.

How much engine power reaches the PTO on the Massey Ferguson 1655?

The PTO-to-engine transfer works out to 77.6%, from 55.4 engine hp to 43 PTO hp. That is a normal usable range for judging PTO implement fit.

How big is the Massey Ferguson 1655 engine?

The engine displacement is 180.4 ci, below the 260 ci benchmark average. Smaller displacement usually means less engine size behind each horsepower number.

Is the Massey Ferguson 1655 engine stressed for its PTO horsepower?

The engine has about 4.2 cubic inches per PTO hp, using 180.4 ci and 43 PTO hp. That points to a larger-displacement, lower-stress style setup.

How much PTO horsepower per liter does the Massey Ferguson 1655 make?

The output density is about 14.3 PTO hp per liter, using 43 PTO hp and 3 L of displacement. Higher hp/L means more output squeezed from each liter; lower hp/L usually means a more relaxed engine tune.

What rpm is the Massey Ferguson 1655 rated at?

The rated speed is 2,500 rpm, above the 2,200 rpm benchmark average. A higher 2,500 rpm rating can make power well but may feel busier under load.

Official information note

Horsepower and engine specs can vary by year, market, engine option, fuel system, test standard and tractor configuration. Check the operator manual, spec plate, parts book and official masseyferguson.com website before buying parts, sizing implements or making repair decisions.
