Windows for a EG EGX1D Mack

Ok,  hunted and begged for window patterns, especially for the doors, as I had no clue what the dimensions were with some of the major components missing in the doors.  Flat glass, tempered etc. is relatively cheap...curved glass patterns...um...not so much.  After hunting everywhere,  and getting turned down everywhere,  I found a ratrod glass company:  Saunders Glass in Washington, they were cheap at about 180.00 for both side windows, tempered class and 18 x30 about 200.00 to ship,

Granite 427 issue

Having an issue with my 427 after dealer installed new exhaust studs. The first time they started it, it blew an injector. They rebuilt injector but it only lasted 3 hours. Replaced injector, no power and engine sputtering.replaced all 6 injectors, no difference. Then dealer decided computer has gotten antifreeze in it from coolant sensor so they replaced harness and ecu. No difference. Got a super hot program from mack which actually helped a little, but still no power and low rpms (1200 to 160
