storkmack Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 There was some overlap on the E-7/E-6's. We had an 91' CH that was an E-7 and a 91' RD that is an E-6. -Brad Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/23228-e6-e7-transition/#findComment-102138 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 Hi Brad, when I had seen similar I thought the truck was a repower. I'm thinking the truck was a 92, and know it was an RD600. It had an E6, 4 valve heads.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

maxidyne237 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 We had an 86 Rd with a 350 tip turban 2valve. I also have a 86 R611T with a 250 2 valve. I think there was definately some overlap in the ending of 2valve and 4 valve. There was also overlap in the use of front mount intercooler and tip turban usage on 2 valves.
