mackdaddy Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I recently purchased a Superliner with and E-9 and was told that a Steve Trevitz provided the turbo, pump, and injectors. I searched his name and there was an old post from 06 that mentioned him too but no contact. Anyone have info for contacting him? Also is there a person or company that is the go to for information on the E-9? I have a friend with the EC-9 or California version and he was wanting to find out what differences there were and timing options.Someone once mentioned a guy in Ohio too?

mackdaddy Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 Thanks for the help so far!Mike,I am ashamed to say that I ................bought them both!!! Thanks for your help in locating these for me. They have been at the Madiosn Mack dealer getting minor things done on them. I am getting the 85 decked on the 88 for the drive back sometime next week or two. I cannot believe the horsepower the 88 is putting out. On the dyno it pegged it out at 1100HP??? the 88 motor was built bySteve and Antrim Diesel a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsb502 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Only problem with E9 trucks is weight they are almost too heavy to run for hire anymore, my daycab double frame 44 camelback rear 84 was 19200 this 85 is double frame 44 camelback rear E9 haven't weighed it yet but I doubt its close to the 93 ch's 18100 with a 60" stand up sleeper E7 T2090 and 34 mack rears on air ride.

Brian Blaylock Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I know in a lot of cases empty weight converts into dollars earned there are a lot of nice trucks on the road even a few non Macks when you drive any of these you are just ridin and guidin but when you drive a Superliner especially a V-8 Superliner you are STYLIN and PROFILIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 How they are lighter with E6-350 and air ride?I'm in doubt the difference is too great. Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 How they are lighter with E6-350 and air ride?I'm in doubt the difference is too great.an E9 is about 2000 lbs heavier than a E6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staxx Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 If you have ever had a E9 out on the floor you could see how massive it is . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb502 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 from my notes the E6 weighs in at around 2200 dry and the E9 comes in at 2800 dry add 56qts of oil and lots of water and the E9 gets heavy quick. The E9 only has a 5.5in stroke where the E6 has a 6.5 in stroke so the cyliners arent as tall saving a bit of weight I guess thats why they are only 600lb off, of course 600lbs is a lot of weight if you think about it.
