JumperAndSon Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Sweet! I would love to have that. You hardly ever see extreme high-performance Mack engines. Someday I'm going to take a Mack/Scania ENDT-475 and put twin turbos and a built P-pump and totaly modify it to make like 800 HP. That would be cool.Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
