Detroit Diesel 2 stroke - the most efficient machine at turning diesel fuel into noise…

When semi trucks start running v8 diesels again let me know!

You forgot about the Cat 3408.

It doesn't get much better than that - in a longnose 359 Pete.

And the 359 went out after '86. A sad time for mankind.

The big Mack V-8 was pretty impressive, but loved fuel.
I like a red top N-14 myself.
L-9’s are nice in smaller trucks.

Meanwhile, I sure miss my '80 359 with a 3406.

Why’dja get rid of THAT?

I had learned about all I could about it, and Class 8 stuff in general, after having gone through it almost completely. Never did do anything with the wonderful Corvette dash, but replaced or rebuilt just about everything else.

Replaced it and its custom toy hauler trailer (which started life as a basic dry van) with a normal toy hauler - which I don't use, either.

Too much to maintain here, vehicles and land, to go places. If I could stop building and modifying things it would be different, but apparently I can't stop.
