kscarbel2 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 The upcoming all-new Scania heavy truck range will see the legendary (Mack) Scania V-8's top power rating increased to 780 horsepower. The engine variant, designated DC16-106, delivers 3,600 N.m (2,655 lb/ft) of torque, and conforms with Euro-6 (EPA2010) emissions regulations.The legend continues............stay tuned. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/41397-scania-to-raise-v-8-power-output-to-780-horsepower/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

kscarbel2 Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 Just the thought of one of these mighty V8s in a Superliner...!You should be able to special order a truck-spec DC16 V-8 through Scania North America (http://www.scaniausa.com/).

TeamsterGrrrl Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Yup, already perused their web page! I suspect the V8 would be a better fit in a conventional than Volvos long and tall D16.

fullfuel01 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I vote Scania. I'm a thrue Mack fan, but a rebadged volvo engine does not turn me on at all. To me Scania V8 is more Mack then a mp8 or mp10. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/41397-scania-to-raise-v-8-power-output-to-780-horsepower/#findComment-300544 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmyb Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Volvo should make a scania v8 conversion kit. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/41397-scania-to-raise-v-8-power-output-to-780-horsepower/#findComment-300548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtymilkman Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I think Sacania is a swear word to Volvo. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/41397-scania-to-raise-v-8-power-output-to-780-horsepower/#findComment-300552 Share on other sites More sharing options...
