    I ran some tests on the 8.2L when I worked at the CAT house. I liked the engine. Can't remember if it had a min-max or full range governor.

    I LIKE BOTH!!!! Thanks Mark! Cover from old Overdrive??? FWD has good luck with the T-K girls. Maybe he can arrange for their "participation" at Macungie and Trucktoberfest in 2014.

    Nice looking B. I hope you use a safety latch when the bed is raised.

    This is the truck with the 8V engine that was for sale at Gerhart's in 2012. I don't think it is the same truck (front bumper/lower hood, fuel tank , and other items are different).

    Nice trucks! I want a Mack RD single axle. Not too many left in the fleet.

    I am not the best at the English language but let's teach our kids correct ENGLISH first!!! When I was in school, a foreign language was an elective. Now it sounds like English will be the elective.

    OE is my first choice. Donaldson and NAPA Gold are good too. Not a fan of washable K&N filters. BTW, welcome to BMT.

    Thanks for the weekly update! Alliance...not too far from Freightrain Larry and my "home base".

    I think they were "nice" because they have to be...customers. After all they are working for a big tip. But I would give them the whole thing albeit not BIG.

    I don't remember the fleet's name but they were located near Charlotte, NC. This was in the early 1980s. I don't think they are still in business. I will dig into my junk pile library and see if I can find more info. This was a factory rating for the 3208T on-highway engine. I think the marine version (turbo and charge air cooled) was rated at 500 or higher.

    My first thought was you got "lucky" with the Mrs. (or someone).

    Congrats Carl on the new addition to the family! Have fun!

    Yes the 3208 is called a "throw away" engine. If I remember correctly, the 3208 never had wet sleeves. It was always a parent bore block. The 3208 was a high reving engine and sounded good at high RPMs. For the size of the engine, they were a good engine, especially the turbo version. There was an OTR fleet that ran 3208T rated at 350hp.

    Could be, but likely the governor setting.

    Are they blowing the snow on the streets/buildings below? If so I would not want to be there.

    I have been trying for the past several shows to get a "good lookin' wommin" to attend and pose with trucks. Not sure if it is me, my truck, or too cheap to pay. Ya think?

    Post a pic of your radio. I am sure it is manufactured by an OE that supplies other truck companies. Have you contacted your local Mack dealer? Here is something I found on the internet, hopefully it will help. http://www.ehow.com/how_7447576_set-time-mack-truck-radio.html
