MackMann85 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Hello allI beleive I am correct when I say that during the 90's Mack offered the E9 in 450 and 500 horspeower ratings among others.Does anyone know the torque output that went with each of those power ratings?????Hopefully someone is up for the challengethank you Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24112-e9-v-8-power-and-torque-ratings/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
41180 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 i think 1660 torque on all the newer e9 engines . deffinately the 500 had 1660. im not 100 percent on the 450 or 400 e9.

41180 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 ive never been a big believer in torque. my dads 89 superliner with a 500v8 with 1660 torque would pull better than his ch with a 460xt which had 487hp and 1760 torqueand the big v8 had as much power as the 98 western star his buddy had with a 550 cat and that had 1850 torque. the 500 was stock Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24112-e9-v-8-power-and-torque-ratings/#findComment-110430 Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveigou Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Seems like mechanical Macks always performed better than what they were rated. But then again factory settings were merely suggestions and were sometimes soon forgotten. 2 Quote See my Flickr photostream page http://www.flickr.com/photos/96692978@N05/ Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24112-e9-v-8-power-and-torque-ratings/#findComment-110437 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mack mhe9 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 whats the story on the cl in this post? i think i saw that cl at antrim diesel a long time ago. could be very wrong though, Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24112-e9-v-8-power-and-torque-ratings/#findComment-110506 Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveigou Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 The CL was owned and operated by Dick Parsons from Newville, Pa. I'm sure you did see it at Antrim. The fuel on the E9 had definately been tampered with. The picture was taken in up-state New York, the 88B shovel was being delivered to a collector. Before the CL Dick had owned a Superliner, similar paint scheme. The CL in the picture now belongs to Roger Gerhart in Lititz. Parsons still runs a CL, but with an ISX 565 Cummins. He'll be the first to tell you it's OK, but it won't run with the E9 Quote See my Flickr photostream page http://www.flickr.com/photos/96692978@N05/ Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24112-e9-v-8-power-and-torque-ratings/#findComment-110526 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsb502 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I do love the way an E9 pulls and I have always been told by old Mack mechanics that the mechanical Mack engine ratings were much closer to Rear Wheel Ratings than Flywheel ratings the guys always said that if a Mack was rated at 350 and a CAT or Cummins was rated at 425 they would be a close match. I wouldnt believe it until I had driven a 300+ that was supposedly stock and it pulled better than my E7 400, then ran with a CAT 550 for a couple weeks and he couldnt get away from my E9 440 to save his life ( dont tell him but I wasnt even trying hard to keep up). 1 Quote "Any Society that would give up a little LIBERTY to gain a little SECURITY will Deserve Neither and LOSE BOTH" -Benjamin Franklin"If your gonna be STUPID, you gotta be TOUGH" "You cant always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you get what you need" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24112-e9-v-8-power-and-torque-ratings/#findComment-115389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
