I've never seen one in a truck before,only generators.This old girl would wake the dead with a straight pipe. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35469-lt-logger-on-cl/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhead204 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 does anyone know if Jacobs ever built a brake for the 110? I've never heard of one but I don't know everything. I ran a old mack 15 ton haul truck that was repowered with a 6-71 with a straight pipe 110db. in the cab 130db. out side. Can't even think of what a 110 with straights and a jake could do Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35469-lt-logger-on-cl/#findComment-242636 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ditchkus Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I think GMC was one of the few or only one that put a 6-110 in highway trucks. PIE (Pacific Intermountain Express) tried some in the 900 Series GMC'S in early 1950"S. It wasd a failure from article I read in "Wheels of Time" a few years back.There was a Hard Coal Hauler (Anthracite) in Northeastern Penna. that supposedly ran one in a 900GMC. Joe D.

Joe D.That is the way I remember that article also. The 6-110 apparently did really well as a stationary engine that pretty much run at one rpm all the time. It did not like cycling between a low and high idle environment that a truck works in. Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

gearhead204 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 if I remember right Terex also used the 6-110 in the scraper line as well Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35469-lt-logger-on-cl/#findComment-242711 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddog13407 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 3 speed Brownie box. they always had that damn stick close to the go pedal. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/35469-lt-logger-on-cl/#findComment-242718 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackdaddy Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 That is the correct position for the aux tranny. I liked that Mack put it closest to you as that was the stick you used the most.. when you get in you have to actually throw your right foot up and over to the foot feed. Once you are in position it is surprisingly comfortable.

fifth wheel Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I have a 6-110 that is from a Euclid 22 ton haul truck, it has a Spicer trans. and air assist clutch. I have never had it running. The "Budliner" rail cars used this engine and they have a different sound from your typical Detroit. The haul truck had twin air cleaners like the Mack. The HP is probably in the low 3's. I do like the truck, especially Macks with vendor engines. Behind this engine is a P&H diesel which is two cycle design.

Joe Ditchkus Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I never noticed the position of the auxiliary as Maddog said. I bet Government safety laws would not let it fly in this day and age. Is it difficult to switch from throttle to brake ? Thanks Joe D.

57 bcr Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Very cool LT. A buddy of mine has a '58 Pete 281, that has similar tach set up. The numbers are in hundreds and with the tach (rotates counter-clockwise) sitting to the left of the speedo(which rotates clockwise),both needles go up at the same time while pointing at each other.Kinda cool. 1 Quote IF YOU BOUGHT IT, A TRUCK BROUGHT IT..AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH IT, A TRUCK WILL HAUL IT AWAY!!!

j hancock Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I am interested in the green spatter paint that was used on the interior and a steering wheel that does not appear to have any cracks in it.

vision386 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 That looks like the spatter trunk paint kit Eastwood Automotive sells? That is a nice truck for sure,lose the leak-troit.the logging gear,and the dual headlights,add a single Mercury sleeper and she's ready to roll!...........................................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.
