    Hello Everyone,
    My apologies for falling off the map. As it turns out, I changed to a new email address a few years ago, stopped receiving forum post alerts, and forgot to check-in. Anyway, password is recovered and we are back online. If you have question, concern, etc. I do my best to answer them. Fire away!

    Thank you.
    1600 on the torque, That's what I was trying to figure out without tearing into it. I was hoping it was 1800 as I knew it wasn't 2K because it has no external oil filter. Does have an external oil cooler though.

    VIN 862723 379 Build date 11/06/04. According to what I found, the engine S/N you posted is not the one from factory. Factory shows MXS05834 which was 625 HP/2050 LB/FT. The MXS08374 was a factory 475HP/1850 LB/FT in a Paccar truck. Trans is a RTLO20918B with Dana/Spicer/Eaton D463/ R463 46K rears with 3.90 ratio. 46K Air trac suspension. Hope this helps.
     
    SAR and ODR Thank this.
