  1. i remember it too. I was 9 and living in East Islip Long Island, N.Y. It was the coolest snowfall, .. I played in the snow and loved the vacation from school.. I made tunnels and snowmen, and threw a shi$@&load of snowballs... Jojo
  2. Storkmack is right!!.... Jojo
  3. 🤔..jojo
  4. This whole election was to make kamala president this year... I've been saying it to my folks here in N.C., since she was picked by Nancy to be V.P., some say no way, but most agree... I've taken a little heat on this thread, but i believe in what I say... Heck..... I want to be wrong, ya know what I mean?? Jojo
  5. I wasn't self employed when R M Nixon was in office.... I was from Obama to today.... Just saying... If my customers have to cut costs, I don't want to be one of the cuts,, Jojo
  6. Amen on the scrapping B.S. Obama's "cash for clunkers" was one program.. I have had many "core" parts over the years, But can't find anyone who will buy them to re-build them. So I guess I will hold on to them from now on, and look for rebuild kits myself.
  7. Starting with American jobs!!
  8. $500.00 Bucks????? Really??
  9. I dont, but I can get it this week... Thanks jojo
  10. NO MP ENGINES!!!!!!!!,,,jojo
  11. Cool Beans,,, "V"... new one for me, Jojo
  12. 500 miles... ish.....
  13. E-6 is 672 Cubic inches, The E-7 is 728 Cubic inches...
  14. basically ,,, yes.... But I have limited knowledge on different E-6's... I'm currently building an E-6 2valve. 1960'ish... So I am learning as well... Someone here will hook you up better, however, you have a great engine, they just run and run and run... jojo
  15. The E-7 was born in 1990... You have an E-6... what year?
  16. Well,,,, My Dumbass, just saw this was for a Cat. 3406.... So Never mind the Mack reference, However, the cooling tube part, stands,, sorry, jojo..
  17. Good call Glenn.... The Mack eng. kit doesn't come with cooling tubes... The P.A.I. kit I used this summer, had them and the ball seal's.. Un-real... anyway, if you don't have a "Target Tool" for the cooling tubes,,, just replace them... (after the pistons are installed and torqued down, trust me....) Jojo
  18. Good clean bolts with or without anti seize will work... they only torque to 33 lbft.. so I'm guessing someone put them in with a 1/2" gun before you got it...😃 Yes... chase the threads... jojo
  19. The cam is "Degreed'ed differently. Low HP engine were retarded 3 degrees 350+400 hp were at zero degrees, 427 and up were advanced 3 degrees.. The offset cam key is painted red on one end and white on the other. Red is low power, white is Big power... The zero degree key is straight.. ..When installing the key, the color you need faces out... (front)...Jojo
  20. I keep a C.A.C. pressure test kit on my svc. truck... in 15 minutes I'm testing for leaks.... I have found many loose clamps,, and of course, cooler leaks too... I never did like the one-piece intake that mack used. always sprung a leak... jojo
  21. I don't know the year of the truck...I looked back but couldn't find it. If it's an ASET/CEGR/ When the little air filter for the VGT controller gets clogged and cuases poor performance, by not working the VGT correctly.. Just another thought, not knowing the engine series. jojo
  22. I've always wanted to hear opinions from other country's.... Thank You, Jojo✌️
  23. I see what "F" said and I chuckled... I'm guessing this is an E-Tech engine? I used to go in to "Mack Software", and open up the governor seeing and change it from---"Min-Max" to "Allspeed". dTo try to give it a little more Pep-in-the-step... This doesnt give 50 extra horses... Just better response, "F" and "V"?? Edit this post if needed... Jojo
  24. Hell Yeah!!!!!!!!! Great post's.. It brings me back...... The 12 spd. I drove was in a 78 RD tractor. The deep reduction switch was up in the dash... Looking back. That was a real Mack, I would love to have one... Jojo
  25. In '99, I drove for a construction co. in Maine for only 2 years,, But I drove '77-'97 Mack's... My favorite was the '79 long framed RD tractor, with a tri-axle framed dump... That tranny was so versitile, and multi-speed reverse was very cool for backing on svc roads around the job site.. I also drove the X-107 twin stick.. another multi speed reverse tranny in a tri-axle dump truck.. I learned to respect that tranny... after that --- no more stopping in the middle of the intersection, to start over.. Bullet proof and proven.... It may be slow, but it will Pull!!.. jojo..
