RowdyRebel Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 http://www.macktrucks.com/assets/mack/military/MackLHRT4pgbrochure%28finaldraft%29.pdf• Power is available in ratings up to 525HP and 1860lb-ftof torque giving the Mack LHRT the ability to haul loadsat a full 120,000lbs GCVWR– even up a 20% grade.Mack has designed the MP8 to handle severe-duty cycleswith a high efficiency cooling system that keeps heatrejection to a minimum.● The MP8 is certified to Euro III emission standardswithout any use of aftertreatment technology such asEGR or SCR. In addition to typical Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel(ULSD) the MP8 engine has been optimized to acceptJP8 fuel with no additions or alterations to the engine.No matter what the operating locations are, the MackGranite LHRT is up to the challenge.525 HP & 1860 lb-ft torque would be nice...and with no emissions crap tacked on. I like that front bumper, too...looks much stronger than the flimsy things they bolt on "commercial" trucks.

ThaddeusW Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 That is one awesome looking truck. I love the last page with the Bull dog painted in camo like the rest of the truck. That would be a great promo picture for Mack military vehicles or a calender or desktop wallpaper.As for the emissionless MP8, thats the great part about military vehicles, no emission crap that can strand a truck in a war zone. Also goes to show you how much juice they can safely get out of those engines without needeing to meet emissions. The MP10 should be able to hit 625-650 HP with 2250 ft/lbs like the old Volvo D16 rating before 2007.Oh and some food for thought: I have a diagram comparing Euro and EPA emissions. Euro 5 is equivalent to EPA 2007, in fact a bit more strict. But they have engines turned up to 700HP and 2323 ft/lbs of torque! And Australia has a 500HP option for the MP8, along with 1770 ft/lbs.Looks like we get the short ond of the stick, thanks EPA! Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog!

GearheadGrrrl Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I noted also on one of the Euro Volvo sites that they offer MP7s up to 450 horses and MP8s up to 540 horses.
