  1. yes how ever physical changes will likley be needed making it cost prohibitive ! Programing ,Cam Key change, Turbo ,just o name of a few!
  2. Sorry this looks like no water pump housing I ever seen on an E9 Is this in a Boat? Auto Trans ? or something? What vehicle is it in? I see you are in Renault territory Not sure I can help! ttps://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=Z1Fxi8KW&id=A284ADA3D6B1231E9B990FFFCDE77FD80C8E8E78&thid=OIP.Z1Fxi8KW37WdpLAXD595CQAAAA&mediaurl=https%3a%2f%2fi.ebayimg.com%2fimages%2fg%2fcaUAAOSwly9c9x5S%2fs-l400.jpg&cdnurl=https%3a%2f%2fth.bing.com%2fth%2fid%2fR.6751718bc296dfb59da4b0170f9f7909%3frik%3deI6ODNh%252f583%252fDw%26pid%3dImgRaw%26r%3d0&exph=300&expw=400&q=mack+e9+water+pump+housing&simid=608011195825916803&FORM=IRPRST&ck=606F19B116014CEA107ADD47672FB14E&selectedIndex=0&ajaxhist=0&ajaxserp=0
  3. The block is mostly maxed out as is ! 350 at most you try to pull more your poking a bear with a stick!
  4. Bro if your Truck is deleted we can't help Much! Could be anything!
  5. My experience is the same and ALL the same reasons. Specially the comment about the Billion mile truck drivers that have driven more miles backwards than the rest of us have driven forwards! everybody from time to time has jammed the clutch to the floor while the truck is in gear and rolling with out thinking! Putting grease on the brake as Joe mentioned takes the sting out some what, THE FUSE (good adage ) I learned the grease thing by the school of hard knocks put one in dri and test drove the truck panicked at a stop sign jammed it to the floor and that was that! Back to the shop for a new brake! My favorite two piece clutch brake in two pieces on the bottom of the bell housing since that day ALL BRAKES GET GREASE LOTS OF IT! not just a wipe I go a little over board how ever once burned twice shy And it hasn't failed me once since! this helps take the stupid out of the job at least for a while till the grease wares off! In some cases the air( assisted clutch levers) the drivers control is amplified making it IMPARITIVE You use Grease! Rambling
  6. Would cost extra money to stock Gray Paint ! Soon They will only come in green!
  7. YUP! I hate to admit this but! the last few Brake jobs I have done on my own vehicles have been with amazon ! Have had very good luck with this ! The fitment chart works well but the cars are relatively new late 2000's ! I Hate going to the parts store and trying to Talk to some kid that hasn't any experience ! AND Amazon Was hundred dollars cheaper for the same china parts!
  8. All I know is the thread on the injection lines in the head on E6 and E9 were fine thread as apposed to coarse metric on the E7 ! Just sayin!
  9. I believe the injection lines in the head are metric on E 7 Glenn may clarify!
  10. If you haven't already done so remove the cutch lever and free up the adjustment for the clutch brake adjustment! easy to do while the trans is out! sometimes not so easy with the trans in! Just sayin!
  11. Not always sneaky either ! Blatant ignorance is more common! Taking mp ten out Mack and leaving them with no big power to sell was a dummass ignorant move as well! It wouldn't surprise me if they pull Maxidyne as they are pushing the Mtrash trans all this comes down to EPA by the way Maxidyne does not fit the bill when it comes to Emission! the rpm target is small for emission engines hence lots of gears which the mtrash is limited also! We will see!
  12. IF IT DOES FIT? you still need to tie off that proboscis that the wires come out of or you will have a major screw up in short order! there is a bracket that comes with the conversion kit i believe you may have to make something!
  13. Yup cummins is a engine company they must be exempt ! Thank your lucky stars they don't build vehicles The engines are a big enough task for them! Volvo is bad enough !
  14. What does your oil pressure look like ? may need a new sensor or you may have a physical problem! coolant level OK? coolant temp OK?
  15. Good find I for one have never heard of this function This definitely may help others here!
  16. Hopefully the whole back of the engine don't got to come off! however your not likely going to get off with out doing that! Big project!
  17. As pro mentioned Could get pricey in a hurry !the bull wheel can make a hell of a mess!
  18. There is a whole bunch of tools you could by to assist in the removal of the rockers and cam! That said there's not anything you can't improvise ! You need some heavy rubber bands to tie the engine brake slaves in place There is a special hook affair to lift the cam out a strap and patients will work! You need to mark the gear to the bull gear! Bla bla bla! This said Check the bull gear these have had issues with coming loose! something caused the cam to break! BEFORE you dig to far you may have a deeper can of worms there! take a bar and check for any side play in that bull gear! There are guys here with may more MP8 experience than my self so wait for a response from Some of the others ! Just sayin!
  19. Got some seriously big diffs in it for a rolloff look like 55s
  20. If it has a nite switch check that too!
  21. But Mack is different? Its taken a lot longer to crush the Mack brand But It will come, Vack cab will come at some point ! We all complain about it but that's what happens when money is your motive! And so it needs to be I guess! The quality and pride out the window! in the name of progress! You didn't mention the easily accessible tow hooks for the frequent road side assistance stops! You also didn't mention the free Roadside assistance Card By American express Low interest credit Card for your motel stays while in the shop waiting for parts free with every purchase! 😜
  22. There is very little we can do to help here with out the codes or the computer program to read the truck take it to a dealer have it looked at! We can stab in the dark all day long here post the cheap and easy stuff however you need to take this magic stuff to the dealer for the most part!
  23. OR the other way around! all in how you view it!
  24. Very possible we have had EGR coolers failed right out of the box too!
