Put some of the toys away until spring today. More room in the driveway for Thanksgiving visitors.

They can be made for a push clutch, but then you loose the clutch brake. 

Is the bell you have now made to SAE spec's?  If so, I think you can use the single disk set-up with a push front bearing retainer on the trans. That would have to be "special ordered" as very few use a push clutch.

The Bell on my 9 speed has the holes below the input shaft for a push clutch yoke.

They made a clutch brake for a mack push clutch, it had a lever that went down and pushed a disc against the counter shaft.  Terry

I have one I think it's on a 711 not sure it's the same but it did have a twin disc push type clutch and the starter is on the right, I am quite a good distance from NE Ohio in western NC

Some of the later triplex and quads came with a twin disc push clutch terry

Are you talking a wedge shape piece under the hook on the hood, I believe they were there to tilt the hook more so latch would not come unhooked.🤷‍♀️. Terry 

They are probably body bound bolts, which can be even harder to get out.  Terry

That is a rare engine, a 350 two valve engine, have to agree with that line from intake to downdraft tube.  Terry

Just put in neutral and pull cover, and make sure forks go back in to shift collars when replacing.  Terry

Don’t forget you have to have your fuel return line to which tank your drawing from.  Terry

I have seen a bunch of tip turbine engines, and never one with that line to the draft tube.  Terry

Would that relay on the firewall engage the big solenoid on starter?   terry

That port has a line going to the mount on the valve cover that the draft tube come off of. 

That line from intake manifold to downdraft tube looks like a place to lose turbo boost?   terry

You’ve probably posted this already, but what is wrong with the trans. In the truck right now?  Terry

now we just need an update..  I hope He got lucky with the E.U.P.'s..  

yeah nice to know how any tips worked out !  Terry

Does it draw and return to the same tank?  Terry 

By the time you add up just a little wear on the inner cam, peanuts, and outer cam themselves, can be alot more than you realize.  Terry

That steering shaft adaptor on the steering box looks like was specially designed to clear the turbo tube. A factory part definitely. Don't remember seeing such ones on DM's. At least of 600 series.

That 70 DM i had that early miter box on the steering gear box.  Terry

This is what I found.  Was getting dark.   This what I think it says 

D 722

6B 8852

11 KBA5850

 

P 2

Probably a TRD 720 which is a overdrive duplex, but if it is a 722 not sure what that last 2 means, and if it is a 2 then it is a direct trans.   terry

That is interesting. Honestly, that engine doesn't really look like the other Scania engines I have seen in Macks before, which have been very limited. The ones I have seen in early 80s R models If I remember correctly had 3 separate heads. This version seems to have a single head. Also, I thought the Scanias were a late 70s, 80s thing. Didn't realize they existed back in '73. Interesting. Those two DMs would be neat to have just because of the uniqueness of them. The frames and chassis are in near perfect condition and they will probably sell for next to nothing.

I once owned a 70 DM with the scania with a automatic trans. Was a ex mixer truck.  Terry  it was also a DM 400, 487 model

yeah,  well if the swap you want is good I would think you can run it..  It's hard to give a good answer when we are not there to see it..  

could there be a small difference on the turbo fins? And the inside of the housings ? Would fit one way with to much clearance and the other way fins are rubbing the housing?  Terry
