Thoughts?

Cheap to make, an older Ram is under 5000$, and the chassis and drivetrain are already solid. Even a 12V-71 motor could be cool, and you can get them for cheap from Semis in junkyards

They're cool until you spend the day driving one of those godawful things. I'm deaf as shit in one ear and I'm pretty sure the vibrations killed my nuts a long time ago.

>>17244961
The ones I drove/grew up with were all cabover or mobile cranes so the engine was right under you or beside your head. So essentially riding on the engine more than anything. Or right beside your ear in the cranes hence why I have almost no hearing in my right ear

With conventional hoods they weren't too bad in the cab, but they were all notorious for cracked or completely unbolted bell housings. It was actually pretty common maintenance to do your filters, oil, and close the gap between the bell housing and engine on those beasts

does caterpillar even do semi truck/semi rtuck engines anymore?

>>17245045
no, california killed them. :'( I had heard talk of them rebadging some navistar engines to go with the cat highway trucks but dunno if anything came of that
>>
>>17245045

Don't know for sure but a 3406 is better than anything made in the last 5 years
