I finished late last night and it was pissing down with rain this morning I'll check tonight and report back, if mine doesn't have the hose I'll check my mates as his R600 has never been apart from new, only 400,000 km from new, still very original Paul -

Also stops the diesel washing the oil fron the bores and extends engine life It does make them less revy and slower to respond until boost developed, however the benefits out way the apparent increase in performance Paul -

6 cylinder power, now your talking my language Thats a good time, faster than anything I have ever done Inline 6 cylinders were all the go in Australia up until the end of Australian manufacturing The barra Ford 6 cylinder was probably the freatest 6 cylinder ever made Anyway I do prefer the old 250 cross flow Ford 6 cylinders Impressive car and time, no good about your mates eye site Paul

Great news, so well and truely worth pulling the transmission It is a big job if you haven't done it before, if you have done it, it is a big job Now you know a lot more about the truck and the transmission A great result Paul

Finally some DM progress
mrsmackpaul replied to mowerman's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
This was a realisation a few years ago for me So I decided no more, no more asking permission, make sure the jobs are done and the bills are paid and so on The Princess was not impressed with my new attitude, she is much better now, I'm not a prick about I just don't ask permission anymore Paul
