6V92 380HP - Gregory OConnor - 11-29-2006 03:37 I spotted a 198+ vintage pusher nested in a Garage in Fontana California. (Valley Blvd across from petes tire). I drove back to the location and introduced my self to the owner, Mack. We swapped stories about the mods we made to our rigs. I spoke of my under cabinet coffee maker, new LCD ,and Sporlan to Toro replacement. He bosted of a cooling path change, Horsepower boost and High rpm ratio power upgrade he did 8 years ago. Mack won. Defeated, I offered an opinion in the form of a question. " but won't the horse power upgrade reduce the life of the engine?" Mack replied "If it cuts it in half that gets me to 500,000 miles which leaves me with about 250,000 miles to go". I like Macks "use it till it breaks" mantra. Some of you may know Mack. His bus is Rose and Maroon over silver 38 foot, perfect shape,He bosted of making several trips to BB Bird nest and having factory interior upgrades. Nice guy and worth looking up if you have an interest in the 6v work. GregoryO'Connor 94pt upgraded Mr Coffee |
