I couldn't understand the disparity in rank with these engines because I thought they were identical. Maybe they were hooked up to different drivelines?

Maybe they were hooked up to different drivelines? Volvo gave birth to identical twins. They deemed one a bastard and the other blessed. They gave the blessed son a dollar and the bastard ninety cents. Blessed bought chrome hubcaps with his dollar and bastard bought brass knuckles. Guess we have a winner. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/50977-mack-mp10-tops-the-grunt-factor-in-australian-truck-test/#findComment-379590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
