Truckers, lets see your rigs!

You know that Aussie file has no adjustment for altitude, so when you go up any mountain it doesn't adjust fueling for thinner air, good way to cook an engine.

I've not ran to high in the mountains but I've been running it daily now grossing around 110k and I've not had any issues at all with it. It's ran great and seems to have picked up some fuel mileage if you can drive it with some common sense. I added the 130-9710 cam so that may be why it runs so cool.

Doing truck stuff today. Little C12 is doing well

What all is there in emissions equipment on an 06? I'm assuming EGR, what else?

Egr and the tuning basically is all they have

 

[will24]

thats badass, I always had respect for those guys like that when i saw them on the road, any pics of it working? He run under his own authority?

 

[SmokinCAT]

No egr on an acert, that was the purpose of the acert engine, the Iva's hold intake valves open during exhaust stroke to allow some exhaust gas to mix with intake charge. This is also the driving reason for the compounds, and why if you change programming and disable the Iva's you loose boost but can make the same exact power.

 

[Mr.T]

I stand corrected, I thought Acerts had an EGR cooler on them.

U gotta change around some wires on the harness. You can't tune a bxs/mxs more than 550 that I'm aware of on the hp rating.

You can tune them high enough to lift the head and put the crank in the dirt.

That's new info to me. I'm not swapping the harness. Just moving pin locations and removing a few wires. It's not as bad as it sounds. What's tuning like that cost?

On a BXS you can move about 10 injector wires and supply pin 8 with key power for the coolant diverter valve (or remove the cooler all together) and install an older 70pin ECM. But those ecm's are $2k. On an MXS/NXS you have to swap cam gears ($1000), drill front plate for cam sensor, buy a BXS harness ($800) and move the same injector wires, buy the ECM ($2000 + core) and all of it is pointless because you can do the exact same thing with a simple ECM flash.

I have an MXS converted with 16:1 Pistons, 800hp cam and a custom tune. I did it to see what it was like and it was pointless. I had all the parts so it didn't cost anything but it runs just as good as it did with the 120pin ECM and IVA's deleted. Lowering the compression is a huge help.

Couple pics I snapped today.
Mine this morning.

Jimmie stopped by the shop this evening to fix an air fitting.

I knew you'd be along eventually with your extensive acert knowledge haha

Got a
Fitting decal since I have moved from a binder to a paccar.

rick why the extra 2 axles...what are ya hauling ya need to spread the weight out like that.

tris and minis is all we got in fl

Probably just state requirements on spreads and loadings.

Bingo, 6 axle dumps in Ohio can gross in the 70's and 7 axles can do 80k. It's all based on axle spacing and lbs per inch of tire

 

[kubotaorange76]

for some reason i think i may have seen that truck at a mill in south GA somewhere, or one similar

I love the look of old iron like that, thx for pics

 

[Mr.T]

Anybody want an FLC?

 

[Mr.T]

Here in Idaho these super 18's are everywhere, legal for and can bridge 80,000 pounds

Can that thing even turn a corner with all the wheels down?

With where the drives are I bet it can barely make a corner with the pushers up LOL



Speaking of... in Illinois they have spread axles. Should try turning one of those gems. The drives are a mile apart from each other. Pushes through the damn steer tires on a concrete truck in gravel or wet roads.
