AZB755V8 Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I would say by the green exterior and frame that truck belonged to Stan Leman. It has external air cleaners now and pin stripping but that sure look like the one he had. He is a real V-8 Guy. Great looking engine with the inline pump!

ws721 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Wish they had put 24.5s on to fill in the gap in fender well. But a very sharp looking Superliner just the same Quote Remember if it's got a hood it's no good!

Specially if they are turned up a bit. About 2400rpm (500rpm over stock governor) those V-8's start sounding like a locomotive and pull like one too. Smooth as Silk, good thing you don't need to shift for nothing those Mack T2180 trans don't like to shift much above 2000rpm's. Just hang on to the wheel and Smile. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/62287-another-v8/#findComment-450176 Share on other sites More sharing options...

david wild Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 WHAT a Mack trans that doesn't like to shift, what's new ? 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/62287-another-v8/#findComment-450230 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, got to work with what I got, an E9 and Mack 18 Speed, it was the hot set-up years ago. Guy's made careers out of shifting Mack's and got by. If I was really working it a big Road Ranger would be a consideration. But just because I am getting soft in my old age! Just think there are "Truckers/Drivers" that don't know what a clutch is these days. If it doesn't have and Automatic they can't drive it. Let alone fight with a Mack trans. An old Mack 2 stick Tri-Plex would be out of the question to shift, no synchromesh, no nothing, just sound and fell. It would be considered Driver abuse to have anyone drive one now. I get deliveries and the Drives ask about the old Mack's in the building and want to see. Everyone sees the two sticks in the B-Model and says they heard of them but never seen one. Then I show them the three sticks in the LTL and blow them away. "How do you keep track of what gear your in" is the fist question. I just say it's on a indicator plate above the windshield, they look and say which one? I say it takes all three. They leave and said good thing they drive Automatics. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/62287-another-v8/#findComment-450254 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hicrop10 Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 No sweeter sound then a Mack V8.Had a few in my day the last was in a 98 CL700,one of the last mechanical ones Mack built.Had that pump turn all the way up,pulled like a bitch and smoke like a locomotive. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/62287-another-v8/#findComment-450255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
