Hi Jean! My Cummins Big Cam III would produce 430 horsepower at 260 and something on the order of 1200' lbs of torque. This is enough to pull 80,000 pounds (legal limit) at 76 mph. Would have been even faster had I had an overdrive transmission. Got about 6.6 miles to the gallon. Diesel was around .98 cents back then. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
