JumperAndSon Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 John The 92 Series with the cast aluminum valve covers are a pretty dry engine.Like I said in earlier post if silver series pretty reliable. If the one you bid on has the stamped covers just find a set of cast aluminum and new gaskets for it. I bought the ones for my 6V-92 from NAPA. Joe D.Yea, the steel ones with the spin on bolts leak for some reason. The aluminium ones are great though.Ben Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24361-detroit-8v92/page/2/#findComment-113033 Share on other sites More sharing options...

convoyduel Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 The 8V92 between the jade green and the silver series was a OO92 and was painted black. It was marketed as the Owner Operator 92 I believe at the end of the 70's or very early 80's.

Vladislav Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) I have a two-stroke engine now at the yard. Somebody put them in my WW2 Mack NR truck. I didn't try to start them because it was stuck hard. Though this one was made in the USSR.

Vladislav Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 During WW2 Soviet Union recieved an amount of 4-71 engines for use in track artillery tractors.Also equipement was bougt for a reason to make repears of these motors. By using that equipement a production of 4-71 and 6-71 engines was organised.They were installed into 2 and 3 axle trucks of MAZ and YaAZ. And early KrAZ. Production came to early-sixties when 4-strokers got his place.

Joe Ditchkus Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Dan Double oo 92 was the name of the one we bought new in a 1979 GMC Astro 95. I think 1980 was when the Silver 92'S came out. Joe D.

Joe D.I think it was something like 1980. I know they made a whole bunch of improvments to the Silver 92 in '84.Ben Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24361-detroit-8v92/page/2/#findComment-114769 Share on other sites More sharing options...
