Midwestmover Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Guys, new here, but I’ve got an ‘89 R model Mack and I’ve recently learned it must have been a glider Kit as the mondel number is RD600GK. It’s a non aftercooler engine and I’m not sure how to differentiate between an ENDT and a 2 valve E6. I’m needing g to find a top turbine aftercooler for it as a standard aftercooler would not fit in front of the radiator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 what does the data plate behind the injection pump say.. I just see an E-6, 2 valve .. ENDT means engine, diesel , turbo.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 It’s a 237, beside the tip turbine I’m not sure what else needs to be done to make it a 285. Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
880joe Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Didn't e6's have drive in freeze where the endt's had screw in freeze plugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeH Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 What's the data plate say? It is a 2 valve, I'd bet E6 as the intake crossover tube and turbo/exhaust manifolds look a wee bit different than my endt-675's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeH Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Someone wrote on here a couple years ago that the engine model should be stamped into the block just forward of the injection pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midwestmover Posted November 21, 2023 Author Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Sorry guys, I could only load a couple pictures. I’ll throw up the data plate now. Pretty sparse info on the data plate. Edited November 21, 2023 by Midwestmover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) Looks like the re-man center didn't do its job with the data plate, I'm guessing it was rebuilt in 1990, the year that the E-7 came out.. maybe Mack can tell you what it is using the 11GBA number.. although, terry did say what it is... Looks good to me.. Edited November 21, 2023 by Joey Mack Pore cell fone sperring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechohaulic Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 11 hours ago, 880joe said: Didn't e6's have drive in freeze where the endt's had screw in freeze plugs the change over from screw plugs to drive in was more a manufacturing change. more then likely it was a cost cutting change, swore at many screw plugs when installing block heaters, some of which (with magnet close by ) had to be drilled in half to remove. drive in made life easier ; I didn't have much faith in the block heater style when installed in drive in port. I left Mack in summer of '75 the drive in plugs had been showing up before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 The hell I went through getting block heater out of my 673 when I put spin on filters. Geez what a mess that was. Glad I got the new plug installed and didn't leak! Heater won't fit behind spin on filter housing. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................
