Metro CSW Posted December 5, 2012 Share #8 Posted December 5, 2012 NaviStar MaxxForce 8, Detroit Diesel Series 50 and/with anything Allison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion VII 4 Life Posted December 5, 2012 Share #9 Posted December 5, 2012 DETROIT Series 50, diesel or CNG. When it comes to motorcoach engines, Series 60 or CAT C13 (though I don't really like those engines in transit applications, i.e. NJT's NABI suburbans or the Bee-Line Neoplans).

MHV9218 Posted December 5, 2012 Share #10 Posted December 5, 2012 6v92 / S50 CNG for me. The 6v is still a powerful engine even today, and the S50 has always been a potent one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
