lol, i know, my uncle is restoring a freightshaker powerliner that came with a 12v71 detroit. did kenworth make any raised cab options like pete and freightliner?
Yes,it's a 352 COE,but, of 1974 vintage and so is Not the "H" series,the cab sits at the standard height,with the 12 under it. It's tight under there,but no clearance problems with the "dog house" because the engine is Not equipped with jakes, so does not have the "tall" rocker covers. It also it has a5x4 set of boxes, and a "deep" alumminum "headache" rack/cabinet..complete with chains, binders, straps, etc,if I remember right, it's a "Merrit"and made of "diamond deck" aluminum.
This Pete is incredible! LCM cover truck of the 2009 year !!!! What a beauty!!!

It's NOT running in the "Hot Rod Semi" class
if you didn't notice.......it's running "box
stock"....it's a working Hwy truck, with a
stock 855 Cummins....probably an NTC 350hp...
which would have been the common size Cummins
for that era (early 70's) of trucks....thats
350hp with approximately 1250-1350 ftlbs of
torque at the flywheel from about 1200 to 1550
rpms, and a maximum rpm of 2100 to 2150 rpms.

the truck has no speed , speed is power
rab6030 4 years ago
Speed may be a "sign" of horsepower...but as
speed increases...it's also a "sign" of
DECREASED torque at the wheels.....so to really pull "you" need Vast amounts of Both,
horsepower AND torque output.

nice truck! whats in it?
dirtbikeracer40 4 years ago
It's definitely a 352 series Pete....somewhere
between a 70 & 75.
Go "Google" "Stagecoach Pull truck at Big Iron
Truck Pull"....it's another 352 Pete from MN
and pulls in the "stock" class, but it's running a V12 Detroit (2 cycle).
TurbinePower69 3 years ago
its obviously not a 352h
richardman1992 3 years ago
Your right...in that, it is NOT an "H" series
which is the same cab as a standard 352...But,
it sit's higher over the frame to accomodate
some of the larger (outside physical dementions) engines, ie: DD 12v71 & Cat 1693 &
3408 series.

richardman1992 3 years ago
Hello Again....
Yes, they did...But, KW never ID'd them..if "you" ordered a COE with any of the
aforementioned "Big" engines...the cab just
came, sitting about four inches higher, but as
far as I remember, I never ever seen any kind
of special designation suffixes after the model no. (ie:K100 etc) like Peterbilt did with the "H" after 352 for instance.

how hard are trucks with these engines still in them to find?
richardman1992 3 years ago
Hello again...
They're getting scarce...but, not altogether
impossible. I know where there is a Pete. in
ND. with a 12 in it...but, unfortunately it's
in pretty rough shape...has an aluminum frame
which is corroding & "flaking" pretty badly
..especially around all the steel bolts, and
especially around the the rear end where the
bogie is attached....would definitely need new
frame rails.
TurbinePower69 3 years ago
does it have a sleeper?
richardman1992 3 years ago
TurbinePower69 3 years ago
does it have the dual intakes and exhaust i hear is stardard for the hi-po trucks?
richardman1992 3 years ago
Yes...it has both. Originally, this truck
came equipped with twin Farr type air
filters.....but when he had the engine
rebuilt (& "built")....they converted over to
the "old school" (at that time) oil bath type filters.....which is what I did, also...
when I "built" my 12's in my two ex. hood "A" model KW's....my 69 Pete (with the rare "stretched" ex. hood) already had oil baths on it.
TurbinePower69 3 years ago
were the oil bath ones the non ram air style with the chrome covers?
richardman1992 3 years ago
Generally...they were...the ones on the
COE Pete..in ND. are the "hat" style.
The oil baths that I put on my very long nose 69 Pete, and my 78 ex. hood KW were large capacity that I
"borrowed" off of "no longer in use" D8
Cat dozers, and had them Chromed and added stacks with the "ram air"
intakes.
TurbinePower69 3 years ago
were the oil baths under the cab and out of sight?
richardman1992 3 years ago
PS: Above, you asked me..." how hard
are trucks to find with these engines still
in them? ".........were you referring to the
DD 12v71's or the older NTC / NTA Cummins.....like the one in the video
above ?? Also, if you watch this video
again....look to the right of the video,
where the other related videos are, and scroll down to the 11th one down
from the top...there's a red KW with a
Canadian flag on the grill....listen to it !!

i was talking about the 12's. i know ntcs are easier to find then a macdonalds
