ADDING PROPANE INJECTION TO THE CAT 3208 TURBO SP

[HANK]

Ron is correct.................in 89, BB put the ZF tranny in the SP because it
was rated at a higher horsepower than the allison tranny..I guess they could
have installed ahigher horsepower rated alison tranny but chose the ZF
instead...The ZF company makes BMW & Mercedes trannys..It is a bulltproof
tranny.many garbage trucks use th ZF............I'm just not sure the top HP
rating of our ZF in the SP/.......I was hoping GREG would answer with that
data............he seems to know a lot of stuff.........
I am very interested in adding the PROPANE INJECTION to my SP wihin the next
year or two...I may as well keep my SP and enjoy it as the price bottomed out so
I cant sell it and I aint giving it away..........take care..

and may tax the trans. the zf was used because the allison wouldnt hang with
300hp, could be that the zf is set up for 500 hp and things would be ok?????.
the short drive shaft wont absorb any twist so all the torque added is at the
ring gear and the transmission. I tuned down the hp in a dump truck because I
twisted a drive shaft when spinning tires caught traction. went from 500 hp to
315. The 94pt is the best bluebird ever built, just go with the best and save
the money trying to make your underpower rig run like a pt
