No relocation required, fit just like it would have from the factory. Yes they have a good sound, similar to an E9 but not as weasy. The turbo doesn't whine as muck like on the E9. The 866 is about 16-18psi with stock turbo and my E9 will peg the gage at 60psi with a BW S500, just a little difference. Yes, the B-61 will move with 3.70's. You will not get it in double-over before 65mph@1400rpm's. This old V8's do not like to be lugged down. I don't have the slobber that I have seen with other Mack V-8's, some were pretty bad. I did have the pump and injectors gone over every few years though.

New one's are on Ebay. Think I paid $20 with shipping, Bosch part not china junk. Ether old or new style Bosch will work.

No big dog house like the B-615. Really not that cramped with the longer hood. Have to take off the removable upper fender to service it but not bad. Same dimensions as the 864 it replaced. I did not have a spare E9 when the B-755 was restored but had I, it would be in there now. Without an intercooler like the real early EM 1005's, 360 hp. The Quad box would have had to go if that happened but the 866 is just fine to putt around with plus not many left to even see or hear running. It really moves with the double over Quad and 4.17 rears on big rubber.

They do sound good and idle smooth, had mine running a few times this week pulling in and out of the building. The building interior finally got painted after 6 years of thinking about it, boy what a difference from bare block walls. That engine should start with just a tap on the starter if all is right even when it gets cold. Just let it warm up before taking off with it. More than a few of them through rods when rev'd with a load cool. Had a few parts engines due to broke cranks and holes in blocks. Brother took them to scrap when prices were up years ago, so no parts really left. Rob, I had to use the Luberfinder set-up when the 866 was installed in my B-755. The engine would not fit with the newer spin on's hitting the steering column.

Mack EM6 237 to 315 horsepower?
AZB755V8 replied to Victordc98's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
A little Borg Warner AirWerks S300 or S400 would give you way more than 30 psi. for less than $1000 new. Even if you go with the same size intake turbine as you got now. I've been using them for a while with real good results. I can peg the 60 psi Boost Gage easily. Only can't keep it there for to long. Coolant temp and Pyro heat up on a few long pulls out in AZ & California. Just have to ease out of it a little to cool down then lay into it again. No downshifting required. As mentioned before, there has to be a little matching with turbo, pump and injectors to make it all work. -
Mack EM6 237 to 315 horsepower?
AZB755V8 replied to Victordc98's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Learn something new today. When did Mack first start piston cooling, what year? Did this happen with the spin on oil filters? -
Mack EM6 237 to 315 horsepower?
AZB755V8 replied to Victordc98's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
It will take all of these parts plus someone that knows how to size the parts and do the work. Once you past 300hp piston cooling is a must to have it live. The 237 is not piston cooler equipped. Better to get a 300+ or a 350 and save a lot of time and money in the end. -
NICE B MODEL
AZB755V8 replied to HarryS's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Those look like REAL HIGH buck options right there. Probably take a lot of rubbing and buffing to keep them in tip-top shape. But you get what you pay for. -
NICE B MODEL
AZB755V8 replied to HarryS's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Na, Just equipped with the optional augmented head lights.Have to look at the options list before ordering. Wounder where the road lamps are hidden? -
1000Bulbs.com is a good source for shop lighting, good prices and Great service. I have relight several shops with LED's is different forms, tube, bulb, High Bay, Exterior. They use fare less energy and do not generate the heat old bulbs do and really bright. The stuff is made in china as most is and I have had issues with the exterior light fixtures in the AZ heat. After two years I called and they replaced 6 of 7 of them for free, no hassle at all. They do stand behind what they sell.

Superliner RW713 dashboard
AZB755V8 replied to NLC's topic in Exterior, Cab, Accessories and Detailing
Can't help as there are 4 pieces to the dashboard or do you need them all? The R, DM, use the same dash with little modifications if any. If the RW dash is not available it maybe for these other model Macks. The RW dash was available about a year ago when I purchased the 2 main pieces and was going to make the other 2 to mount the gages and switches. The old original dash was metal and naugahyde covered the new one is plastic and textured. There are probably superseded part numbers that the parts guy did not look up for the parts you need. -
It's amazing how quick all those drafts go away when you plug up the holes. Same thing when I built my barn that top section is the worst to get up there and sealed. If a good dinner is all it took to get a little work out them you got off cheap. When you going to start working on stuff and not on the building or is this side just for storage?

Boy Oh Boy, Tony has some GREAT stuff down under. That is A Real Pretty Truck👍

Superliner II bumper part#
AZB755V8 replied to Vladislav's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
It took a few days to check on the different bumpers that I have to look at. The 5887-MM0613 date code 03-19 made by Hendrickson is the bumper with no fog light holes that I got about 4 months ago from my local dealer. By the date code it was made this year. This currently available bumper is steel and chrome plated. It is nice chrome but not show quality, to be expected for the price. The other bumper is stainless with the rectangular fog light holes, same as in your photo, part # 24QL4430M3 date code 08-04 made by Hendrickson. The Hella lights fit perfectly as in the photo as well. -
The Officer: You see son them there fuel tanks are Aluminum and they ain't going to rust anytime soon, You say there's rust but I see RED die. Boy your in a heep of trouble now, so bend over real slow now Ya hear... LOL!

new air cleaner for b model
AZB755V8 replied to davehummell's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I did the same thing as here with a Vortex SS off a Western Star. Both these cleaners are longer than stock but with the B-75's with the fender extensions it is EZ to lower them and not hit the fender as with the B-61/B-42 etc with shorter hoods. I used a 15" diameter cleaner with the same B-Model air cleaner top as this photo. -
91 to 93 Superliners
AZB755V8 replied to mackey58's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Alway knew and the throttle lock works for setting a constant RPM at a job sight to run the PTO or warm up the engine in the mornings. Using the throttle lock as a Cruise Control is just Dangerous and Stupid to use it that way. Thought we were on the Electronic Cruise Control topic??? -
91 to 93 Superliners
AZB755V8 replied to mackey58's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
This post started with Superliners but got to Cruise control on other models. Out of my wheelhouse on the newer stuff. Learn something new everyday and I'll go with it. So how far back did cruise control go with Mack engines? -
91 to 93 Superliners
AZB755V8 replied to mackey58's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Don't think that electronics back then were that advanced on the E7's to support cruise control. There was no electronics on the E9 that was in those year Superliners or after that in the US. -
MH Statue Of Liberty Edition

You might be waiting awhile for a response from, mackboy, he has not been on here since Feb 2017. -
NICE... Except for that second R/T time... Sleeping, I mean snoring at the light.👍

It was rebuilt by Global Industrial Automatics in Tucson Arizona. I worked with Richard there to get it set up with higher shift points and quicker clutch engagements, super guy to work with and knows Allison Transmissions. There are no super duty parts for the HT Series trans as they are super duty already. We did not over ride the shift governor yet until we get a few runs in to see what it does. So just leave it in first gear and it will shift at the governor through the gears for racing. The old Chevy turbo 400 would do the same thing, not for the faint of heart to drive that way. Rated at 1450 lbs/ft torque (continuous) at load. That said in racing an old Chevy 2 speed Powerglide was rated around 275 hp but with a few mods can easily handle 900 hp or more in a light car. Same here 11-12 second run at full throttle with only the weight of the tractor, it will be fine behind 6000 lbs/ft or so of torque. It is an Allison cable shift HT754CR, 5 speed with lockup in 3rd gear so acts like a 6 speed. It has the big high stall torque converter. The reason for the cab over is ease of lifting the cab to work on everything in the open.

Just browsing Ebay 10/2/2019 in Vintage Mack parts and found a mislabeled Quad box as a 5x2 trans. Closer look and it is a very rare complete with PTO duel disc clutch Quadraplex with needed equally rare bellhousing. This is the first complete one I have seen for sale in 20 years. If you need it, get it for $495. A smoking DEAL even if it needs work. There will not be another one I am sure in a long long time if ever.

EN 540 color
AZB755V8 replied to yarnall's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
That is the color that I remember all Mack engines were painted in the early 60's. My engine and trans are that same color in my B. Then came the silver, gold, red and a few blue engines in the late 60's, 70's and 80's. Almost forgot gray and black for Mack used in the 80's and 90's. Those colors are only for Mack engines not other manufactures engines available in a Mack. Hope the memory is correct.
