Packer Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Just met what will be the president of the Wyoming chapter of ATHS!His name is Mike Osborne and he is looking for a 711 engine for his 'B' project truck.Are they out there?And are they close?Or not so close!!!! laffinBe good if he could round one up and I thought I would check out the BMT site for him.I'll see him next week-end and it would be good to have some info to make him smile!!!He is driving a Mack Super as his daily driver hauling drilling supplies.And it looks GOOD!!!!Got the V-8 at near 800 horse I was told and the man is most pleased with his Mack.And well should he!Wish I had my camera so I could post a picture!I'll get one next week-end and get it posted ASAP.Packer Quote Keep a clutchin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jake Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 I have one for parts if you decide to build one up. It has the heads on it and the internal parts in it. It ran good in my B model but the block has an internal crack.I hate to see it go for junk if someone could use it. I'm in Wisconsin.

I'm in Wisconsin.Just got off the phone with Mike Osborne and his engine has a crank issue.That's why he is looking for another engine.Paul Van Scott thinks he may have one also.I'll pass the info along to Mike.I'm just using the BMT forum to chase one down for him.He gets to make the big, but informed, decision.He grabs me as a BMT kinda guy, but haven't got him into the system yet.Thanks for the input!!!Packer Quote Keep a clutchin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
