Great combination with the 6-V92 in the Mack .

Those Mack's got a funky stench about them to begin with … The Detroit Diesel will help tone it down . :)

I like to keep them stinky Dog's " downwind " behind me when possible . LMAO ! :D

I don't think it's much of stretch to say that may have been an optional engine in the day. Local county road district had a bunch of 600's with 3208 Cats and Allison 653's in the 80's, little 5 yard dumps.

V12 anyone?----I knew of a 79 Superliner Mack that made it's home in Indio Ca. that sported a multi turbo-ed 12V71 built by a marine shop. Anyone who ran I-5 in the early 80's
that was passed on the Vine by that black painted Mack that thought they had a real runner with their 3408 or KTA 600 was put to shame by that 12V71. He passed me climbing
the grade going south from Biggs Junction on HYW 97. I didn't even exist.
