james j neiweem Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Now that's a diesel that makes sense. Individual cylinder heads for better gasket compression and if you have a valve train problem you may only be dealing with one cylinder. And 35 more HP than a Volvo D13. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/58770-scania-adds-540hp-version-to-its-13-litre-range/#findComment-430867 Share on other sites More sharing options...
