Mack Engines

[ThaddeusW]

Was the Lanova engine the first Mack diesel? Was the 673 the successor to the Lanova?

Lanova --> 673/thermodyne --> 676/maxidyne --> E6 --> E7 --> ASET and now the MP7. Am I missing anyhting?

The Lanova was introduced in 1938. During the early thirties both Mercedes-Benz, Cummins and Buda diesel were offered in Mack Trucks.
