If you use a mack trans i would say that you need to mount it with the mack mounts on the mack trans and let it hang the rear of the engine. A 5.9 flywheel housing is very weak at the mounting to the block and have had cracking problems with the eaton 5 speed trans hanging on the back of it.Remenber the trans will weight as much as the engine so the mounting is very important.

He may think that it will get oil pressure quicker.

I like that. ( i didnt think the printing press will take the strain )

And it may be only a statment. No question to it. Like my truck the air cleaner stops up with dirt also.

Be better than what we have now.

A parts store here sells air cleaner that has a one year warranty on it that sounds like if you ant smart that it will not stop up.A driver out at the plant just ask me this week if i tought it would work.

Ever think about taking it out and putting on the shelf?

That about what i think.

Hope you have many more happy years cause you earned them. 46 years for us.

I like that driver.

Because it is lubed by diesel. Its normal.

I wish i had one. The trans i mean.

I am not afended but whats the question? I see you posted it two times.

Looks like a good investment to me. Just rent her out per hour.And dont just break even.

Its all good.

A coyote run across the road in front of me a few nights ago coming home but the funny thing is he started right down the road toward me in the dark. When he saw my lights he throwed his brakes on and slid all four feet about twenty feet befor he changed directions. He will never want to cross a road at night afetr that. I know his feet is sore after that.

What engine do you have?

Iam thru with turkey for another year.It was good but eat too much.

Caps here is 210.00 with their carcuse but they have short supply of carcues now that the chinees tires is coming in here.Those tires will not cap.

They have a sims fuel injection pump on them and like already be stated idle on 4 cylinders and did make some think they was missing.

I put 8 samsun on and they were 285.00 plus tax and install. Dont know if they will hold up or not.

It was used too much when it was new. Better get the main brg line bore checked. Mack engine work at low rpm in time will bend the block.I have pulled the caps down on many of them to find you cant get knew main brgs back in due to misalignment of the block.*55 cummins was bad to do that in the older engines.But the mack engine with the fuel cranked up will do it quicker.I had a freind that wanted me to do the bottom end. I new that this was a maxidyne and set hot so was slow about doing the brgs. I knew what would happen. Sure enough a couple years later i ended up pulling the engine and having it aligned.He could not beleive it cause it was ok till i pulled the pan.

The difference in the two blocks is the cam size. 4V uses a larger cam bore.

Why take one load when you can take two loads ever trip.
