Mule Magoo Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I'm looking at a 2006 Mack Granite CV713 Dump with a AI 427 with 427 hp and an allison, will this truck have an adequate amount of power? I have a Mack now with a Ai-300 with an allison, that has absolutely no power, I just don't want to repeat that mistake.

Mule Magoo Posted November 5, 2023 Author Share Posted November 5, 2023 Truck I'm looking at is a Mack CV 713 Tri-axle dump, which will be pulling a CAT 309, it has a AI427 with 427 HP and an Allison. Truck I currently own that has no power is a 2005 Mack CV 713 with a AI-300 and an allison, it is a knuckle boom, hooklift.

JoeH Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 AI-300 or AMI-300? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73505-ai-427-427-hp-power/#findComment-541721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeH Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 Google says a cat 309 weighs 21,000 lbs, a 427 should pull that just fine. These etech motors are only 12 liters, so they won't pull like a 14-15 liter Cummins or cat. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73505-ai-427-427-hp-power/#findComment-541722 Share on other sites More sharing options...
