Got 6 of these. Less piston, rings, pins.

Dammit Man !! Too bad im not building an E-6 right now..

Well, got my answer. 🤦 They don't offer a complete kit with .020 liners. Sooo, I have to BUY six .020 liners and eat the six .002 liners in the kit. Oh yay. Another $1208. Why not....😡 Anyone need some .002 liners??

pulled this off the internet. From the same dealership chain. Someone said they figured it was takin in 1981....

Do you know if a Series 60 Detroit ever made it into a Superliner?

Truck crazy- Last I knew there was a Gerossa white 9000 coup cab parked out back of Belltown Auto in East Hampton CT. on Rt 66.

I thought he was talking about that one on the calendar page painted the same color a few posts back

I was poking around myself, looking for those things I came across a bunch of them that were similar for a jeep four-wheel drives. Some of the sites were not very clear on thier sizes. Glad you got it figured out.

From what I've seen the owner's manuals was a generic book like what comes with a passenger vehicle. It was called "operators handbook" and just gave general information as to how to operate the various switches and things of that nature. It was not vehicle (serial / VIN #) specific. What you are a looking for are electrical shop manual items. I'm not sure if every truck built came with a shop manual. I think it depended on what the customer wanted and probably cost extra. A truck's shop manual was a binder that was labeled with the truck's serial/VIN and contained a variety of different system specific shop manuals based on the components included in the truck's build probably based on what the customer wanted. I've seen ones that were only one binder thick and others that were 3 binders worth of material. Buying any old shop manual or some type of generic "600 series" shop manual and expecting it to have a wiring diagram for a specific chassis is probably futile.

Wow missed this somehow thanks dean looks amazing

They also ran a bunch of Straight R 600s in the New England area

Sousa had all Mack engines. They used to sound bad ass coming in and out of the gas station I was working in. I tried to find pictures of them, but they are not available. I don’t even know if they’re in business anymore.

Well, I just found out the large clan thingy is Christmas Eve eve.. I suppose Christmas Day we could sit around drinking and eating salsa and chips all day and of course, lots of desserts

I notice he doesn’t get on here a whole lot we were going to book a table down downtown casino for Christmas Day since it’s just the two of us and sister in law thier booked solid so we gotta an invitation from a close friend to dine with them they have a large clan lol

Yeah, I'm talking about Randy, he usually smokes a prime rib roast for Christmas, but apparently he's shunning us.

Im not sure if the volvo dealer portal is any help anymore. Mabey "TheHeinz " will help on this one.

Thanks Joey Mack. Sounds like you have an impressive library. I hope you find your notebook. Surely there was an owner’s manual with these trucks. That would be some help. If I see manuals for 600 series would that include my truck?

My Mack MP8 was choking on DPF regens every 250 miles. Dealer wanted $6k to “fix” it. Screw that. Found DrunkLab. Used their Mochester App — no TechTool needed. Remotely deleted DPF/SCR in under an hour. Zero issues in 12k miles. Better MPG, full power. These guys know what they’re doing. https://dl.ge/catalog/truck-ecm-tuning/
