E6 237 into a 285 Not to be discouraging but I think you could purchase a complete engine, (core, or runner) for what all the parts to build one would cost. I've done a couple in the past and it's a great platform for a B-6X series conversion, but good parts are getting hard to come by.

Erik Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 (edited) ok so it would be better to find a engine like a 285 with a tip turbine on it Edited February 8, 2021 by Erik Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/65809-looking-for-a-mack%C2%A0-tip-turbine-assembly-or-any%C2%A0info-e6-237-into-a-285%C2%A0/#findComment-468535 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 That would be my opinion. I would look for a later variant myself like a 300+, (ETAZ673A) or E6-350. and have your injection pump recalibrated to "Maxidyne" settings of which you now have. Again they are getting scarce but finding individual parts to completely build the platform can be done, but it's kind of expensive. Again, just my opinion.

Lmackattack Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 you will want a 285 turbo. We run a 237 at work and at best its around 15 psi of boost where my tip turbine pushes 25psi.
