Interesting reading- Looks like the V8s were big sellers in the 70s then faded. I remember reading in one of the magazines that before Renault offered the V8, Mack was only building two a week. Would be interesting to see the numbers with all the exported V8s to Renault, Mack Australia, etc. included.

 

Total V8 Diesel production including, marine, military, Renault and Austrailia  from 1960 to 1999  was 32,199 as per Don from the museum.  Paul

Maybe the nomenclature changes once the after coolers become standard on all V8's... because the 735 1005 engine was not aftercooled and the 736 was... All 721-22's were intercooled correct?

Yes you are correct.

Don from the Mack museum provided me the build info on the V8's. and after we talked he revised it by adding the import V8's as they were sent to Australia and France. Which explains the Renault COE that I saw in Paris with French Bulldog across the front!

Mack V8 Diesel Engines.doc

That non intercooled engine is one of the few that I have seen, Very Cool. If I had one it would be in my B model instead of an 866.

Is there an accurate count of the late E9 production? Looking at the .doc and there are fare less E9's than actually built. There were approx. 15000 MH's built with 2/3 of them having E9's. That is approx. 10,000 in Cabovers alone plus all the other applications. How many RW and CL's where built with them in the USA and Australia?  I can not find the actual numbers but would really like to know.  There are the marine and military variants as well as DM's. There were many more than 3768 E9's and variants built between 81- 99, if so that would come out to 210 engines a year. I thought I saw something like 15,000 of them in that time span.

Is there any information on the number of E9's with inline pumps built opposed to the V pump.

The engine serial number should be on the passenger side of the engine on the oil pan rail. You will see a flat area. I would have to agree with 41Chevy, I think the number built is wrong. The timeline with the engine build dates just doesn't line up. Aside from a few differences they are pretty much identical to an E9.

I got it started last night. Ill try to post a video.

Can you post a pic of the area on the oil pan rail where yours is stamped? I see a bumped out area near the front corner where my a/c compressor mounts, but I can feel or see any numbers there.

Fun is what they fine you for!

Your in the right place. I had the same problem when I was looking for my numbers. I had to get the sand paper after it. There not stamped real deep and can be hard to read sometime.

I had the heads and pan off mine when when I found it I guess so there was a little more room.

Sorry for the delay its just been madness at work. Passenger side near the front cover on the oil pan rail. Its a very light stamping so you will probly need to sand the paint down a bit.

I have a video of the engine starting but I don't have a youtube account. After only a few spins of the air starter it came to life.  The air starter must spin the motor over at 300 rpm! it is quite impressive actually.
