  1. dont forget that the e9 is comparibly small for a V8 at 998ci and is also 15 some years old. The marine E9 engines were 600+ HP and some milatary engines were tested to 900HP. I think the reason the E9 is not availible state side is that it is heavy, and most current 6cyl are making the same hp/tq as the older v8s. also less things to fail on a 6cyl dont get me wrong. a V8 under my hood would put a big smile on my face
  2. WHATS THE "FUSION" CAB???
  3. great pics . i like that cat v8 and that sweet b model
  4. I think I have one in a junk truck but the mounting tabs are cracked?? I will check tomorrow
  5. Hi dave. There were a few trucks used, the main truck was a 1977,78 RS700L powered by a 285 tip turbine with a 10 or 12 speed. it had a 60" ablebody sleeper the other truck(s) were R700s with simmilar setup. look in my photo album for pics of my RS700L

  11. Barry thats great.... That must be funny when some punk in his Riced out Honda gets beat by a ford wagon LOL . Back in High school there was a kid that had an P.O.S chevey wagon for his first car. I remember it was pretty rusty and all the rich kids driving mom and dads bmw thought it was fun to pick a race after school with him for braging rights..I mean old chevy wagon vs. bmw easy race right?? NOT. he was spraying a simple nos set up and just left them in the dust after he got traction. LOL lots of kids lost money that summer word got around quickand no onewould race him

  15. try some aftermarket companys like pai indistries...my work gets some parts from them when mack is out of stock on needed items. Trent
  16. someone told me to wait untill winter, fill it with water and let it start to freeze. keep your eye on it and it will push back out??? never tried it as the risk of cracking it?? or you could cut the ends off and have new skins welded on

  20. the B cabs are always a rust issue. my first B model had "for sale" signs for a floor boards.. you know the ones made from steel a little thinker than pop cans LOL. the rest of the cab "looked" ok but when i started to remove the window rubbers all hell broke louse. I would try to save the cab if its reasonable, but if its not look for one in better shape. If you live out west near CA I know a guy that has a great cab. You can only save so much before its unrepairable. Larry i was just looking at your floor pics on the old BMT site last week I will have to see if they are still there!!! I was looking for the door hinge placement.LOL Trent
  21. good find there and the price is not to bad for a Magnum. figures it ended up as a dump truck most old macks do. I found my RS700L only a year after it was used in demolition, Luckly it was not beat up. Trent
  22. correct me if im wrong ...to add piston coolers to the END673 you could "simply" tap into the oil gally??? I heard that from someone that added a turbo to there non turbo 673 trent
