Licensed to kill

Smart wife. Buy you a project to keep you out of the house and in the shop. That is how marriages last. 😁👍

Great idea for old T’s. I don’t have any “Mack” themed T’s but do like to repurpose anything in the name of “art”. A couple Mack themed “art” here. Shop art. Yard art.

No idea what pump is on this engine and do not know how to identify it.

I went back and re-read your previous post and, yes, you did explain it there. Somehow, when I read that it went right over my head and I wasn’t following. Don’t know why as it seems pretty clear now. My engine had the supply line but both others were plugged. Of course I have no provisions for that on my trans but I also don’t see any place on the injection pump for an air line either. It is possible that the pump was changed for one without this provision and that could be why the port on the limiter is plugged. I dunno.

Do you know where those air lines from the puff limiter go?

Looking through the pics I took of this engine before tearing it down and the air intake for the compressor has me scratching my head. There is a hose that comes from the head of the compressor (which should be the air intake ) but the hose goes to a fitting on the lower side of the compressor? This arrangement seems illogical to me. Can someone confirm how this is supposed to be. OK, so I can’t seem to be able to post the pic (must be too big). So that fitting that the hose goes to is just below and behind the governor bolted to a rectangle boss.

Easy enough to make. If you don’t have access to a lathe, you can get a bolt in the appropriate size and pitch, cut it to length and file or grind the slot for the cross pin. I suspect it will be ultra-fine pitch, probably 1 1/2” or there abouts. If it is some off -breed morphadite pitch it can still be easily made on a lathe. Any machine shop can easily make that if you don’t have a lathe

👍Yes, it took some research to find a valve that has feed and return lines for each tank. Didn’t want to be drawing from one and returning to the other. 😁

Two independent fuel tanks. I chose to go with independent tanks (no cross over) so I can manage my fuel. I am putting in a selector valve so I can choose right tank, left tank, both tanks or no tank ( isolate both tanks as an anti-theft feature, not that many would be thieves know how to drive a twin stick these days).

Thanks. If your engine dies NOT have that hose I would be interested in what it has in the two ports that this hose is useing.

Working out the gauge cluster. Still have to seal up the headlight switch hole and relocate it 1/2” further outboard so it lines up with the signal indicator above it as well as add the engine brake switch directly opposite the light switch (I like symmetry 😁). Am going to have to add bezel covers since the gauges do not all match (particularity the dual air gauge and the boost gauge). Was wanting one more gauge (dual needle load gauge for the front and rear air bags) but have no room 😩

Yes, that was my point.

This is a 1980 vintage E-350 econodyne. Pretty common engine so there should be someone with one that could compare. The guy I got the engine from was kinda haywire so no telling what may have been changed. I bought the engine trans (twin stick 6 speed) out of the same truck as a unit only to discover much later that the engine being an econodyne snd the trans a maxi torque that they are not compatible.

It certainly would (I am reasonably sure that there is no check valve or anything in the draft tube housing). However, that little line won’t bleed off anywhere near the amount of boost as the tip turbine itself. I suspect, assuming this line is as it was from new, that the turbo was/is sized accordingly to allow for the parasitic draw of the tip turbine AND that line to still provide the desired boost to the cylinders after such parasitism draws. I dunno, just postulating.
