    Pre-chamber, is that what made the 1693 sound like it was falling apart?

    Was that A originally painted white? I knew the B's were but thought the A's were all yellow.
     
    Oxbow and Feedman Thank this.

    I knew the b's were, but I guess had forgotten the A's were. I know some of the V8's were and some weren't, I don't know if precup or dita had anything to do with it or not.
     
    Oxbow Thanks this.

    Think it varied from Paccar factories. Sure seems like Peterbilt painted them white longer the KW. I think they look good painted off white.
