ThaddeusW Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Was just browsing some pictures on Hanks and ran across this nice twin steer Hayes logging trick. I have seen a few pictures of it before but never one of the engine bay. That sure looks like an E9 to me. I do know that Mack purchased Hayes and then sold it to PACCAR. But I don't know the years and would Hayes have used Mack engines? OR did the owner fit the truck with the E9? One thing is for sure I really like the old Canadian Iron.

Superdog Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Mack sold Hayes around '75 so that engine would have had to be a re-fit.

ThaddeusW Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 Mack sold Hayes around '75 so that engine would have had to be a re-fit.DOH! I should have realized that An E9 would have never been in the bay of an early/mid 70's truck.Interesting re-power though. Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog!
