Clovis Kapongo Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I'm looking at 2009 MACK, model CXU613, engine MP7 HP 364 10 speed day cab to buy for city or local deliveries. Anyone has knowledge of this truck or engine? Please advice guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_martell Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 never heard of a MP7 364....depending on what emissions systems it uses it could be ok. I have an EPA2010 MP7-405HP, and its been great, but the EPA2007 MP7 had their share of trouble over the DPF's.... 1 Quote Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part....

bbigrig Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 MP7 365 is the high torque rise engine in the MP7 family. It's a good engine for P/D. That should be a good truck for city use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_martell Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 By high torque rise, do you mean "Maxidyne"? My MP7-405 is supposedly a Maxidyne as well....I can say it pulls like a maxi Quote Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part....

bbigrig Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 The 365hp ratings had the highest torque rise percentage. Torque rise is measured by percentage. Peak torque would be a LbFt rating. Keep in mind the big MP7 in 09 was the 395hp. 405 came later. Maxidyne engines are known for a good peak torque rating but high percentage of constant torque rise was it's best feature. The 365 is is good mix of economy and power. The 395/405 is just wasted HP. I have an mp7 395 but would have b fine with a 365hp. Remember the days when 350 was all we ever needed. Lol.

j_martell Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 j_hancock: thanks for the link. I have seen that before when diggin for specsBbigrig: good explanation. And yes, 350 used to be a good number lol. The newly restored "spare" is an E6-350 Econodyne....30 yrs later and it still getting the job done. 1 Quote Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part....

james j neiweem Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Mr. Hancock. Great article. Explains torque rise well.Sounds like the 365 MP-7 would be a good fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
