    Compatible transmissions for the M35a3 with the cat 3116

    Ron, I understand and that is why I said "typically". That example was really more of an exercise in math than it was on "cruising" red line opinion. For my application and from my experience, I should be able to cruise at about 20% higher rpms with my Cat. So all other things being...

    Tom, I have read all of the other posts and I do recall where it was said that another Allison would bolt right on but no one ever validated that or provided the information on exactly which Allison transmission they where referring to. Also, just because it will bolt onto the Cat does not...

    Deuce Insurance Prices - How much do you pay?

    I almost got insurance with them for $145/year but they had a garaging requirement that I didn't meet. I called to explain that the vehicle wouldn't fit in most garages and that it didn't need garaging since it was an old military vehicle. The agent replied that he understood but the garaging...
