being that it is GM truck, one should put an old 8V71 detriot in it, they work great with allison trannies, but being the 21st century, an 8V92 would be more appropriate

that'd be nice, and loose the mechanical injectors for some electronics and a ddec4 ecu with custom programing... and twins feeding the scavenging blower... :-laf:-laf

newest detriots I drove were 6V92's in greyhoud busses with ddec controls, Drive by wire trottle and a nice turbo feeding the blower, they had great power and awsome throttle responce, then greyhound turned in the busses due to fileing bankruptcy in 1990 and all we had left were the older mechanical job and the power was iffy from buss to bus



but every so often, i got to drive a southeast trailways eagle 15 and it was like going to a muscle car after driving an econobox, plus no speed govener!!! and better handling than greyhounds MCI's
