Bullheaded Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 And now we'll get to have some of that Scania (along with MAN) technology in International's with VW (parent of Scania and MAN) buying into them. Give us the V8 9900i!!!!

41180 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 5 or 6 years from now when it's time to start looking for a new truck, if a Scania V8 is available in a heavy spec corn binder, hell Yeah!!

That in my opinion was one of the down falls of the v 8 lack of engine braking! Scania offers the world's most effective exhaust brake, complimented by the superb Scania Retarder. Once you experience the retarder, it's hard to go back to a Jake brake. Here's some info on the Scania Retarder: https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35732-scania-freewheeling-retarder-reduces-fuel-consumption/#comment-245667 https://www.scania.com/group/en/braking-that-makes-cents/ https://www.scania.com/group/en/a-brake-with-history/ Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34624-mack-%E2%80%93-scania-cooperation/page/2/#findComment-364407 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtymilkman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Mack's parent company is full of retarders. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34624-mack-%E2%80%93-scania-cooperation/page/2/#findComment-364498 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post scania v8 Posted January 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2021 yes it has... my 15.6L engine had 408hp braking power maybe not extremely strong in comparison to a J-brake i suppose ,but SCANIA chose as far as i recall in the late 80s for developing a wearfree hydraulic brake (retarder)integrated in/mounted at the backside of their gearbox... adding an extra 610hp/3500Nm of braking power in my case. The latest 2021 version delivers up to 4700nm braking torque..... so their classic engine brake itself hasn't improved that much throughout the years because they didn't need to. 2 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34624-mack-%E2%80%93-scania-cooperation/page/2/#findComment-466858 Share on other sites More sharing options...
