BGarofalo Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Here is my version of “redesigning” a Mack and MP engine. In my opinion a CL is already perfect so just need to put a decent engine in. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Oh My God !! I wish I had youre skill's, and Pocket book... That is sweet, and the CL is AWESOME.. I love a Superliner, But when Mack replaced it with the CL, to me.. A pretty Damn Good Swap... Rock-on !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) Well put... I like the way you think.. I suck at driving Cummins, but it is still cool.. I would rather have a CL with a 460 XT, 18 spd. 4:17 rears... But to each his own.. Sorry,, I see it's a CAT.. Dumb me...

Joey Mack Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) It is.... I just saw some other pics of it.. Hell I just put an engine harness on one this summer and ran the valves..

They can have them ACERT Cats I'd rather put a 14.0 Liter 60 series Detroit under the hood of a Mack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 I actually really like a Detroit.. But i like the 12.7.. I like simple reliable engines, yes,, lower power is always an issue, but I like long time between repairs.. Of course, I am not a Pro driver/owner operator anymore.. I loved my 12.7, in the one and only truck I owned.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 i'm sorry mark,,, it was a Columbia, 2006... I got 2 trucks confused, the 3406 E was a different job, for the same customer.. See, I am already losing my touch... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOBWhite Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Surprised to see it still has the twin turbo setup. Most I've seen chuck the twins for a big single. Twin turbo's heat up the air too much they say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fjh Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 Yup nice install so far ! May have an issue with the fan shroud there the fan hub mounts quite a bit lower in the frame than a V8! Minor hicup for a guy with you skills I imagine! Got lots of Balls / patients/ and a big bag of money I hope! 😅 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a interesting swap even if considered blasphemous by some. I never knew a Cat can communicate with a VECM on the Mack (maybe it can't) and yes....hot air. the air needs a little help get'n that lean fuel mixture to light on those environmentally friendly Cats 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx610 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I have a feeling it isn’t as “environmentally friendly” as it once was and those compounds are for some serious fire power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Mack Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I still don't know why a Mack 460 or 460 XT wouldnt be enough power and reliability.. Like I said before, Mack 18 spd. and 200 series rears with 4.17: 1 gears,, Hell even 4.42:1..... I have a lot to learn... jojo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx610 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Cats are much more responsive to mods to make serious power I believe. Also a lot more aftermarket support for them like Cummins. Some people love their cats too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
