    well,all that aside,i didnt know,they were still using no turbo engines in 67..ive owned 5 macks,and did a few inframes,, but i dont claim to be an expert,it was all in conversation..also im out of practice ive been driving cummins trucks the past 20 years.hehe,thanks for the update...from 66 to 94 when i bought it,i suppose they could have done alotta changes,i was only 10 when it was new,and too far away to notice,,,bob

    wow,,looks good..i sold one just like it..back in 83...was my first truck..certainly learned alot on it.about repairing macks,was a good experiance..only thing i didnt like,was it only had a 180,no turbo..was ok on the flatlands..bob

    i think its a 250 hp,,but im not sure it should be a end673 for that year.. its cubic inches,,u need to buy a motor manual,,it will give you all the specs,and show you were the id numbers are..also if your having trouble finding those sock oil filters,mack sells a conversion kit for spin ons.welcome aboard,and lotsa luck with it..bob

    all,you really need is a power steering box,and a add on pump,,you can usually find those parts,in a wrecking yard..everything for around $500.bucks..keep your eyes peeled on this sight for people parting out,older macks,or run a wanted ad...good luck..bob
