  4. Don't know what weights your pulling but that's doing ok Remember they are 350 hp I know that they go well I pull 420000 kg gross every day and up some huge climbs and it still surprises me what these motors will do I drive at my mid 90s it will run at 100 + but at 95-97 I get a fuel burn of 2.46 km per litre day in day out with reliability Just my 10 cents worth
