  1. Hello. I have a 88 rw with a Mack e6 350 that is equipped with the Robert Bosch pump. Truck runs about as good as it should for a 350. The truck is not an everyday runner.  Have done some miner pump tweeks Based off of what the Cummins  5.9l tweeks. .  I was wandering if anyone has any experience with grinding the fuel plate.  if anyone had experience or tips doing it on a e6?  
     

    thanks. 

  2. I tried one on a e7454 didn't see much difference. Your better off going straight for hard parts like sending the pump out to flow more fuel and haveing the injectors honed. You wouldn't want to forget about a turbo also. Then find someone to tune it for the extra fuel. All depends how much more hp your looking for out of it.

  3. wow that is a very sharp truck.. if my superliner had a heavy front axle i would put big front tires on it in a heartbeat.. thats a nice mack lots of horsepower what more could you ask for...

    i had a exhaust box my dodge ram cummins that made years back with dual stacks and the sound was just right even cut some of the drone out..

  4. I believe the clutch and pressure plate play a big role. The one Superliner I bought that was doing some stock class pulling has a 4000lb BL plate and clutch in it and there was a spare in the side box!

    it takes some serious push to engage the clutch. Owner told me he started in 7th with the mack 18spd.

    true.. but it also depends what kind of horsepower your pushing... the more horserpower the heavier plate load you need to hold everything from slipping.. he must be cranking and doing alot of slipping off the line to get it going in 7th gear...how much horsepower was it runing?

  5. Take it from me 325 is much better! My Brother and I have both the 325 and a 375 that are pretty much stock and the 325 has a much better torque rise. My Great Uncle had one years ago in a 71 R700 and he played with it quite a bit and he had well over 400 horse power. Just my 2 cent

    Was your uncles 400hp r 700 reliable being pushed that far?

  6. Bummer i was hoping it was the 375hp engine.. but anyway i plan to sledpull with the truck alittle. my question now is, is there alot of adjusting that can be done on the pump? maybe a little timing. id likie to get it to 400 425hp with not alot of hard parts, and maybe put on a smoke show. but this is just for fun not looking to be a sledpulling champ. thanks for the info so far..
