    Wow I've never seen something like that! A few ranchers around here use military truck in winter for water haulage but the farmers seem to shy away from them. Probably not going to haul very much very fast with an LTL or B series but they would still look cool. The 60s International grain trucks have the best sealed cab (from dust at least) in my experience. Good luck!

    Off topic a bit but since this tread is about Cruisliners has anyone seen this image? Promotional stunt? I found it last night and thought it was cool

    The Mack Mh 4x4 used by UPS is the only truck that I can think of that used a front drive steer axle and I believe Mack developed some sort of special clutch just for the front wheel drive unit. Here's the post that has more details on that:

    I once saw a spec book for one of those Magnadyne engine but I didn't pick it up unfortunately. Point gap should be around .015-.020 on most engine, a business card is what I use since it's just about the right thickness. I'm not even sure what brand of ignition Mack used Do you have any pictures of the engine? Lots of the small parts have to be cross referenced.

    That is awesome! They should make the truck the team mascot!

    Also here is the Boston truckers video about the Cabovers: I'll have to watch both parts later but I really like that Cruisliner and Marmon

    Saw one of those Astros at a show the other day, think it had the 6v71 Every time I think of Astros I think of that ugmo van from the mid 80s and that weird ad that always gets stuck in my head.

    More stuff I found about the mystery tube: On pages 17/18 it shows this threaded hole Sorry I hope I didn't highjack your thread too much! What were we talking about again? Something about a boost gauge? lol

    https://www.mylittlesalesman.com/1982-mack-e6-engine-9994460 This 1982 tip turbine has the line. I thought surely someone hooked something up wrong but if you look through the pictures this one has it too.

    Unless there is some sort of check valve somewhere I can't image what that line would be used for. Your draft tube should add a bit of negative pressure to the crankcase when your going down the road but maybe this setup is for keeping a negative pressure when your parked.
