      @@adammoe2061 Whats funny. I’ve straight up flew past the new volvo with supposedly “600hp” in my Cat 3406E 550 horse. I’ve also passed teucks with the newer Cummins “X15” that are supposedly the hottest thing out. CAT still wins

      @@josefastboats5874 yes I have a Cummins ISX 15 that’s the slowest bitch ever. The funny thing with Cummins is that there is 3 different types of ISX engines. Performance, efficiency, and productivity series. Most people think all ISX is the same and that’s how Cummins marketing screws the consumer.

    @speedandmarine9066 2 года назад

    Rare to find such a good install on a retrofit like that from a shop. Never exactly the way you'd do it yourself, but looks like they treated you right. I like a BigCam, but a 3406B is pretty good too! At that power level I'd keep fresh rod bearings in it, my experience with turned up B's is that they wear the rod bearings fairly quick because the B's use a narrow rod journal. Cool to see Old Red back at work and faster than ever.

    Greetings from the Ohio Porters! 🇺🇸 I like the old fuel filters that you can see through. I loved the old cars and trucks that had the glass fuel bowls! I like a Cummins, but a Cat engine is so much better in my opinion. I mean, you have a classy Pete to start with, but now it has a classy engine to get you down the road! 🤩 Sounds totally radical! I’m glad that they did a good job for you! 🤩 I like those new blue hoses! That’s the real proving ground…out on the road! 🧐 So glad it’s working out for you! Keep the wheels a rolling my friend! ✌️🙏

    That’s a very clean install and sure does match the rest of the ‘ol Pete. I also recently put my new truck to work and it’s a real nerve wracking experience every time not knowing if somethings going to go disastrously bad. I don’t have a truck nearly as nice as yours but we all start somewhere. Heck I’m just happy I can run outlaw whenever I want now. Those corrupt three letter agencies can keep their bullsh- and eLogs.
    1999 Freightliner Classic XL high roof, Detroit S60 12.7L 500hp, 10sp, 3.50 gears. I’m doing real light stuff just Reefer work. So it works for me and has just enough aerodynamics to stay away from the pump for a few days.
