Where is everyone #5

It did cool off. It does appear we made our ok. I slept through most of it.

 

That Classic black flat top in MO sure checks just about all the boxes.

Got lot a potential

 

Yes, FLD 112 is screwed on large displacement engines..
Well, a guy with the right motivation could make it happen? It's crossed my mind to move the cab back 8" on the frame, then source a wrecked 120 & get everything needed off that. Think'n I'd need another bucket to drive & make money in the meantime as sounds time consuming..

But yeah, it not the only truck like that.
Pete 384 for example, you'll see lots of ISM, & ISX12. Can't remember if a MX13 fits, but really who cares anyhow.. lol I didn't even know ISX12's existed.

Kenworth t400, is another one. Stuffed with L10's, M11's, & 3176 Cat's..

 

I’ve got a 335 hp V series that would probably set down under the hood….

 

6V92T?

 

My best internet search also come up with the M11 being longer than the Series 60..
It ain't..

Again, we (Myself & Tug Toy) pulled a tape on er every which way and it ain't seem doable without moving the cab back, or creating some sort of doghouse to squeeze er.. Before he turned that Columbia into a tandem to pull them buckets round, it was offered to me for cheaper than one could source a clapped out core..

Had no interest in a 12.7 DDEC V until he told the price. If it'd a fit I'd be runnin it with a nice new decal on the rocker box read'n date de fabrication 1999.. lol

 

May as well stick a 3208 in there.

 

Just cut the firewall and shove it back. Like an old L9000 ford.

 

Yes Sir. Came out of a yellow freight truck….

 

LOL… you know better than that. 3208 would never see a day it would out run or out pull a 6V92T.

Those drilling rigs are both Ingersoll Rand TH-55 top head drive we had at R&L Drilling.

White International was a 77 model with a 3208 / 6613, and an air operated clutch brake.

Red International was a 81 model with a 6V92TA / 12513, years later I personally pulled the 6V out and installed a 855 CPL 625 from a donor truck just like it.

3208 ran good long as you were on flat ground, sight of a hill and you were grabbing gears much more so than the red 6V powered rig.
