    Brent, Nice engine (and Mack). Been to Chambersburg show at Twin Bridges many years ago when they hosted the International Cockshutt Club. Nice show grounds. I will have to put your show on my 2014 calendar and try to attend.

    Red in my EM7-300. Use coolant recommended for a Diesel engine. Coolant color varies by brand and EL (extended life). Your engine should have a coolant conditioner filter in front of the thermostat housing.

    As a kid, I remember a few of these plow trucks in PA. It seemed these were put in service after a big snow storm or blizzard. I always thought they were an awesome sight pushing thru big snow drifts. And IIRC, it took two (2) persons to run it. One drove the truck and the other operated the plow. Somewhere I have a B&W photo of one in front of the homestead. I think the PA greenstamp had several of these trucks too.

    Going to look at the CF at 10a today (Friday 13th). Bid is now $4000 and reserve not met. I am out but still going to look at it since it is about 30 miles north of my house in Canton. It is sitting inside at one of their "closed" stations.

    Excellent! Thanks for the post. Looks like the pic was taken on the "back lot" at the Engineering Center. P.S. Striping scheme might be a nice additon to my MH.

    CAT has deeper pockets than Progress Rail...bigger payoff to UP.

    A 850 H.P. John Deere diesel vs. A steam tractor rated 18 H.P. It's all about torque and traction. The steam tractor, weiging much more than the diesel has plenty of traction. And steam engines have lots of torque. In the past, often only a single steam locomotive was needed to pull a long train. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=FLQhvruimfs

    My thoughts.... If he can't get it done in 8 years...put someone else in.

    I am no expert on this but I remember the OEs designing the system to be "tamper proof". The computer senses some backpressure so if one removes the filter it will throw a code and possible derate because the BP is too low. Again, no expert but this is what I remember from my "working days".

    Certainly....post your question in the Driveline and Suspension forum.

    From one truckin' slut to another....VERY NICE R!

    I doubt you will see any difference in fuel mileage.
