be intresting to know what injectors they used for sure

did you get the 460 xt file also?

rawhide added 16k to list price when new for about 5k worth of chrome and leather you could make your self one alot cheaper than the factory could oil economy is tanking in PA be alot of excess equipment over there is winter if crude stays $40

only thing Vw getts those kinda mpg in a much larger car than Chevy has been able to. hybrids are about a big of joke as us running our pickups on lp back in the 70 s

Honestly, I could care less about the VW "scandal".

If I were in the market for a new diesel car, I'd take a serious look at a VW. They are sure to have some good deals right now and I couldn't care less if my emissions worked or not (no emissions testing in my neck of the woods).

they cannot sale you a 2.0 tdi right now glad I got a 2015 back early in the year

well, I put the 460 injectors in and I'm having a problem so I pulled them out and after closer inspection I seen that the body of the injector is made a little different. Mainly talking about the oring grooves. My old injectors have the thick oring at the top and then one thin one just under the head towards the top of the body of the injector. well the new ones have the thick top oring and I realized that I had actually put the thin oring in the groove where the body screws together. It was late, and I was tired but I should have noticed that the new injectors don't have the second oring groove just under the head. Looking at some on the internet that say they are for the AC460 the pictures look like what I have without the second groove so I'm guessing that the AC injectors are different and that's what I have. I have the older 2001 e-tech and I'm guessing the way the cup in the head is made you have to have the injectors with the groove for the thin oring? right or wrong?

I'm not sure you will get those injectors to work in your 01 why not get some stage 2 injectors from rodchester fuel or atrium?

bet he's got a 505e

if you put injectors you'll do the overhead at the same time see how the valve covers be off anyway

ever thought about jacking it up and setting it on tall blocks so you could run threw the gears a tooth off a rear end will vibrate into the cab and sound like a trans

I'm a big believer that the 90-97 CH's were and are excellent trucks. I have owned both R series and CH's and find them comparable in operating cost and reliability. (CH's extra interior room and ride are nice additions too) Most Mack guys on here don't give CH's the respect they deserve. The E7 (PLN) engine was the best version in the CH. Wasn't as big a fan of the E-tech. That's a nice truck Dirtymilkman.

Agree I had a 90 or 91 Ch glider sleeper truck that was shoved in a barn and not built till 2000 had a manual e7 350 and a brand new t-2090 on older camleback rears I should have kept it ran like a switch watched ran every day it was needed

some 01 s are pre ccrs at lest mine is

you may find the only way to get the xt file is find a truck with it and let a dealer burn a copy of it and install into yours. there are non Mack dealership options also. 427 file with your mods may also work

spoke with some mexicans that put a 237 in a 2670 case, talk about a ton of work to but a great motor into a total pos not a ag tractor but a jd 1050 dozer has a e7

as cheap as they are now I would find a big cam 3 to put in it or a L 10 cummins swapped several in versatiles before not a fan of a 3306 in a tractor application its a constant load and will only live if you keep it 250 or less turn the screws and it wont make 400hours been there done that when they was brand new

sounds like some one had liner or head gasket issues before

there was a hotter 427 file for mountainous areas thats what my mack dealer told me. the books only show one 427 rating though mine also is a 01 pre ccs

from what I have seen the gold dogs disapered in the late 70's and have re appeared in about 2004 with all mack drive line's there will always be cases where the owner put one on his self

i was thinking the mack gliders are a export only item and have not titles

mack has a great warranty package on their reman motor's it not cheap though. you could go 460 but highly doubt a 454. I would rather use a 427 with hotter injectors

I thought st.louis had a decent shop. it not that far to cape

I believe you plug the dpf in a hurry if you idle it up for extended time

there is a many waste management roll off on 315 floats all they way around so yeah yes you can

I've had good luck with baldwins 40yr ago my uncle lost a new 3208 due to a baldiwn busting and they put a new motor in for him. that said in some of my new off road applications and new cummins motors baldwin does not make the filter. For those I use Wix

decent luck with double coins on my lowboys had a set fail with 80% tread and aired up tight one time virgin china tire beats a cap any day to me. to bad the US manufactures has shut down their short lines Dunlops and Daytons was the best tire for the money hands down. also if you can find them a Wanli is a china carbon copy of a firestone I've used them quite a bit

that tall of gearing you probley run out of motor before you do rpm's in the high hole and you will run out of clutch and drive shafts trying to get a load moving out of a field road
