Itz still TheCaliforniatrucker...but the C-16 has a Higher Torque Rating, and also Horsepower doesn't matter in a Deisel engine ....

As I said a Cat C-16 torque: 2515 ft per Lbs Cat C-15 torque: 1850 ft per Lbs

[smilie3232]

wish I had one lol,we always bug our boss about more power but we drive what they buy

[WesternStar4900SA]

Didn't we travel on that one??

[smilie3232]

no,For this road have to carry on down the trunk past 4000 rd south quite aways

[TheCaliforniatrucker]

What's the Horsepower and Torque rating on them trucks?

[smilie3232]

@TheCaliforniatrucker  the horse power is a 475 cat,they call it a 480 has a burner which is a pain in the butt,torque rating is 1850

[TheCaliforniatrucker]

@smilie3232 ::::: it's not bad but Why dont you guyz get a bigger engine truck? I mean you guys are Haulin HELLA weight

[smilie3232]

Not sure but think cost is one reason,Even a 550 pulls that hill slow,steep climb

[TheCaliforniatrucker]

@smilie3232 ::::: it's not bad but Why dont you guyz get a bigger engine truck? I mean you guys are Haulin HELLA weight...And also whats the payload weight?

[smilie3232]

payload is around 48 tonne on that haul,we will carry up to a 57 tonne payload,not off the elevator though

[kedgwick22]

[smilie3232]

No this is off the forest trunk,Are you thinking of the narraway,thats off the two lakes and is quite a road,especially since the slide this last spring,check out my video Hold on Tight and see if thats the one you are thinking of,Theres also the Bowen,quite a ride,and the Gunderson hang on to your pants on that one lol

[haroldtheredneck]

Went in and out barefoot, but it is summer time! Still one hell of a pull!
