theakerstwo Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Looking at the engine mount makes me to ask, did you get all of the bolts in the front mount to the block in? If not i will worry all week over this. 1 1 Quote glenn akers Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/71000-swapping-e6-engine-into-e7-truck/page/2/#findComment-520958 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onyx610 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Those should be doable. Maybe post in parts wanted for sale? There’s a lot of guys with e6 s on here. I think 67rmodel has one for sale Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/71000-swapping-e6-engine-into-e7-truck/page/2/#findComment-520971 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I do have a brand new throttle cable I bought and never used. It’s the older style maybe a middle 80s let me know.

67RModel Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 The one I have for sale is a 1972. Its technically still an ENDT675 2 valve maxidyne engine. The E6 nomenclature came around in the very early 1980s. Not sure how much difference there would be between the two versions...probably not much for the external pieces you need. At any rate I'm not ready to part this one out anyway. Still trying to get it gone as a complete unit.

67RModel Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I have the vin number for a couple late 80s R models you can use to get the parts you need from Mack.....as a last resort. I'm sure you are not yet ready to surrender all 4 of your limbs and first born child for a few parts from Mack of Sweden haha.

67RModel Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Also, for some reason I want to think you are from Florida if I remember correctly. There is a large Mack junkyard in Sparr, FL called Sparr Truck Parts. They have/had a thread on here in the parts for sale a long time ago and got resurrected a few times. You can look them up on Google. Not sure how far away from Sparr you are but maybe check with them. I think its just North of Ocala.

mowerman Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I remember sparr was brought up quite a bit a while back and yeas sometimes you have to settle for overpriced parts if you need it and they have it … obsolete Chevy parts as far as I’m concerned are the worse for ripping people off… Bob Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/71000-swapping-e6-engine-into-e7-truck/page/2/#findComment-521272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
