james j neiweem Posted Friday at 08:45 PM Share Posted Friday at 08:45 PM If you go on facebook and search Mack Scania (from Leonardo Favaro) you will see the history of the relationship between Scania and Mack. This is the best article I have ever seen on the history 672 Lanova and END 673. Also the V8 history from the Mack 864 through the E9 and the Scania D14 through the D 16. Instead of getting bits and pieces about the history , this article kind of ties it all together. 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75910-mack-scania-engines/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the info from the Facebook page, but I apologised because I could not copy the article in 1 page to then post it here. Maybe next time I may improve my computer copying skills 😊 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75910-mack-scania-engines/#findComment-581766 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know scania had a big hand in the Mack v8 but never new how it all came about!! All I know is after building a few and working on them learning the ins and outs I enjoyed working on them for the most part! 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75910-mack-scania-engines/#findComment-581806 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark T Posted yesterday at 02:11 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:11 AM I think the Scania / Mack V8 was more about the mighty E9. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75910-mack-scania-engines/#findComment-581810 Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrybarbon Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago It seems then that the Mack E9 and Scania blocks are identical. Scania has continued with its V8 so, given the scarcity of the Mack E9's and parts, then it should be possible to retro fit a Scania V8 as a readily easy and economical as a substitute motor into a Superliner, subject to the electronics etc. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75910-mack-scania-engines/#findComment-581878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
