Like we said, this is not a flame throwing crazy dyno video but rather a look into the real numbers that help get the freight down the road. I just love the E9 because it's a good, sturdy, old fashioned 90 degree V8, and you got some pretty big cubes. Do you figure an E9 would fit between the fenders of a B61? The sounds themselves are not mine, please do not credit me for them. And if I can get B61 looks with the power of an E9, I'd practically have my dream truck. Check out the new Scania V8 and you realize what Mack could have delivered if weren't for being taken over by the damn Swedes. Nor, of course, will these traits do anything to harm fuel efficiency.
Also a 275 set up the same way. The older 350's and 454's were the best in my opinion. At the lowest rating of 250 hp the mack e7 engine will put out 975 foot pounds of torque. Deadheading from Dallas to Baltimore at 65 to 70 was 7. I like My Pete but would of liked to have gotten a Mack.
That '78 Econoline is my daily driver, too. Engineers had spent a lot of time attending to noise, vibration and harshness, McKenna explained. As a promotion for the line, Mack built a series of special edition Super-Liners. In its 300-horsepower spec, torque is 1,160 foot-pounds at 1,200 rpm. All gauges and controls were well laid out and easy to see and use. It would just make one mean truck! Each mirror had two panes, one of them with a convex surface, so I could effectively peer downward and to the rear. When compared to the existing engine, the Mack E9 is expected to be more reliable and offer lower life cycle costs.
I found in the extreme hills of Vt. The 460's are good but are hit or miss, I've seen reliable ones and I've seen ones constantly broke down. The Titan can haul loads up to 200 tonnes and comes with many heavy duty options that are not usually found on highway trucks. All engines are rebuilt with in our machine shop in Denver, Colorado. The G box with the 5 speeds downshifted so one didn't use the over gears in the 3 speed, Example: 4th over to direct to under, go to 3rd direct to under, go to 2nd direct to under on a steep highway grade of say 6 percent.
But Titan will rule the road for anyone who hauls lots of logs, coal, dirt or rock and will spend a lot of time off the pavement, and wants a Bulldog on the nose. I would maybe go up to a 4. The vast majority of mack e7 engines still on the road are later models which are all water cooled. When they went to the electronics they have had problems. Those are Titan's primary intended duties, and the first ones produced went to a coal hauler in Kentucky, McKenna said. Jake-------Cam's explanation assumed you had equal splits in the auxilliary , which you could have in some models of the 3 speed and also with a 4 speed that would operate like the Quadreplex Mack transmission.
It had the low range which was pretty much off highway only, then low split, hi split and overdrive. In 1999, Mack introduced the E7-460, which sported the Mack E-Tech technology. Remember when the biggest engine out there was a 425 cat? Engine: Mack Power 10, 16. Price kept coming up out of my range. This improved combustion efficiency and fuel economy while reducing emissions, maintaining proper oil viscosity and expanding oil change intervals. I'd like to have heard more sounds from that big diesel, but cracking open a window let in some of the tunes from the exhaust stacks.
Its interior was nicely appointed in grey tones contrasted with faux wood facing on the instrument panels. I looked around at a few web sites to try and find out a little about this E7 but couldn't find much. The Whispering Giant as Mack coined it was the baddest of the bad when it comes to high horsepower engines. . Reason I was looking was gonna start teaming with the Fiance and I couldn't do it in my current set up. I've had two, but right now I've got nothing.
I expected the tall, wide hood to block my view to the right, but it didn't. This Titan had a 20,000-pound steer axle and beefy wide-base tires and wheels which, with the long 255-inch wheelbase, limit wheel cut. I got another question to throw on the list, too. The galvanized-steel cab comes from the Granite vocational series. Love that sound and power. Price kept coming up out of my range.
Landstar wouldn't let us because I had to many axles. Then the industry pushed for bigger litre engines. In its 250-pony garb, the torque was 975 foot-pounds at 1,200 rpm. With the four speed main usually you ended up in 2nd direct on a hard pull, except for the 275. Glad to see we're both from Iowa, too.
