Popular Post j hancock Posted August 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 19, 2019 Chrysler 413 power under the hood with plenty of room to spare. The 413 was called EN414A by Mack and the R-410 was produced between 1965-1970 with 450 units produced. 3 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

HeavyGunner Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Any idea what kind of torque and hp those engines put out?

JoeH Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 That hood cracks me up. It's fiberglass, but is set up with the foldup sides you see on steel hoods. You flip those sides up and the motor is 4 feet down below the hood! Lol that hood is useless like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol that hood is useless like that. my bet is at one time in it's life it wore a snow plow out front and the doors were cut in the hood because it would not flip open with the plow on to check oil or other fluids. 2 Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp..

JoeH Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 (edited) With that motor in that truck I doubt it could handle a 7.5 foot plow. But it's possible, no holes for plow lights on the fenders because the engine can't handle anything bigger than a pickup truck plow which would ride below the factory headlights anyways, or would have its own light bar. That'd make a decent yard truck for someone that just needs to putt putt around moving dirt on their acreage. That's what we use our U685T for. Run it like once every 5 years for projects on our property. It's days plowing snow are long gone unless I replace the whole cab and redo all the airlines brakes and tires and hydraulics.

RoadwayR Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 (edited) Neat truck, I always thought the R-410's were a preview of what Mack would have been like under Chrysler ownership! The 413's were among the best truck gas V-8's. Very much different than the passenger car-light truck 383's, 400's, and 440's. Wasn't there a R-400 very early on that had a Magnadyne flathead 6 in it? Edited August 20, 2019 by RoadwayR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS7 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Dodge Truck built and sold a lot of C-800 single axle dumps and tractors with the 413's for power. There were a lot of C-800 plow trucks around the Detroit area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been an R-402 with a flathead. Offered between 1966-1968 with 219 built. The Dog would have been a real dog! 2 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

KKERGALL Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hood and bumper not original. Later model hood with openings not sure what bumper is from. Town of Newington, CT had several of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j hancock Posted August 20, 2019 Author Share Posted August 20, 2019 The hood might be OEM to the truck. It was cut with a jigsaw by Bucky the Beaver and is a little rough vs what a factory fiberglass hood with correct molded access panels for snow plow duty. 7 minutes ago, KKERGALL said: Hood and bumper not original.

Matt-If T-800 not a Super Duty (401, 477,534) If it was a 477 would have been a T-850 or T-950-and 477's were not known as being dogs. Depending on year I think a T-800 would have been a 391-which would explain why it was a dog compared to say a 549. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog13407 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 was def a 477, tandem tractor, red with white headliner and white steering wheel and dash insert, 5 and a 3, was not a slouch I been told but the 549 V200's we had would walk them all if you could keep them together.

RoadwayR Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) I drove a Fleetstar once that had a 537 V-8 in it, sort of an improved 549 I guess. Truck had a 5X4 in it, geared really short. I wasn't the best at driving a 5X4, but I could make it pull pretty hard. Don't know what the issues were, but I remember hearing the big International V-8's were not the most reliable big gassers. The company I work for had a bunch of 534 Fords back in the day. Last one I remember seeing was a 70-something LT-900. I never got a chance to drive it, but never heard anything bad about it. I know by then the 534's didn't make a whole lot of power due to emissions, which was why they were dropped a couple of years after the Lima 429 came out. The 429's were great, only problems I ever saw with those were the cams going flat and the oil pump pickups falling off. Even that wasn't much of an issue if the driver shut it off quick enough. Outside of the 413/EN414, my favorite big gassers were the GMC 401 and 478 V-6's. That 702 V-12 must have really been a monster. Always wanted to drive a REO V-8, heard they were pretty good.

Maxidyne Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I lived near some gravel pits in the 60s so remember seeing a lot of those gas powered tandem dumps. The V8s made some melodious music, but they weren't all that fast, as most has only mid 200s horsepower. Short lived too, as by the 70s they'd been mostly replaced by diesels which went faster with less drama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
