Old cab over options for work

Why not ?

 

Add about 3 to 400 rpm to what your used to running on that mechanical engine.. never lug them if you want it to survive . They get their best fuel economy around 1700 rpm and power 2000 ish pulling a hill.. shorten your oil changes also oil will get fuel in it quicker especially if you lug it below 1500

 

I’m not sure. It would depend a lot on the condition of the interior and such. Probably not much to be honest. between 4500 and 7,500 would be my guess. Unless it’s just something special. Which no offense it’s not. But it is a nice decent shape 4070.

 

I’d say you’re right.

 

I ran one line that,was a 78 model, had same type setup, 400 cummins,9 speed, had 3.90 rears though.

 

Running Cocoa, Fl to WV and to Ky on this trip. Run a Big Cam every week grossing 60K to 100K+…. As said earlier don’t lug it, try to stay between 1700-2100 when working it. You know what CPL number it is….?
