leafsprings Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Does anyone know what horsepower the 3208 was rated at?HP varied between 175 non turbo to 250 turbo. Most 3208's were in the 210-225 range.
leafsprings Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Dagenham 330 112 HP replaced by the higher cube 363 128HP but both engines looked very similar. Edited March 21, 2016 by leafsprings
Force Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 You can do a Cat 3208 from the Ford/Cat 1160 in the AMT Ford LNT Louisville kit if you change the diesel injection pump from inline to a V configuration, that's the most noticable difference.Here is how you do it : https://public.fotki.com/modeltrucks25thscale/model_magazine_articles/car_modeller/cm09_sept_1991_cate/
Aaronw Posted March 26, 2016 Author Posted March 26, 2016 Thank you for the photos and other updates to the info. So many options on these trucks.
leafsprings Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 (edited) No problem, the engine paint scheme on '57 thru '65 heavy duty Ford trucks is confusing, not many color photos of original engines out there. In general, most all had black blocks, with red, silver or gold valve covers. Edited December 23, 2018 by leafsprings
