Can anyone name another application for a tip-turbine after-cooler set up other than Mack? The turbine appeared to be the exact same design too.

I saw it today, and was very surprised. (some on here may have known of them for a long time. . .)

Fun is what they fine you for!

International comes to mind for some odd reason. Interesting question. Paul

Here's a hint....This application would have been in service late '80s early '90s... possibly earlier too....

on or off road?

Best I can tell, it was before that....

I need to say, the 'cooler box' is a different shape, but the idea behind the setup is identical and as I mentioned before, the turbine(fan?) is indeed the same...

Couldn't be the Diesel that converts fuel to noise and rainbow spots....

We had a pair of R model at Horans with them, biggest thing I saw was keeping the exchange fins clean of dust and schmegma from running in Broman's sand pit. Turbos seem fine. No idea for an OTR unit
