Published in engineswapdepot.com

This 1988 Peterbilt 379 semi truck was built to drag race by Mario Monette at his company Mario High Performnace Deisel in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It’s powered by a twin-turbo 15.2 L Caterpillar C15 inline-six mated to an 18-speed manual transmission. The engine produces 4,000 hp and 7,000 lb-ft of torque thanks to 125-150 psi of boost from a compound turbo system featuring a 105 mm turbocharger and 118 mm turbocharger. The rear suspension is a custom four-link with huge heim joints weighing 23 lb each. The truck runs the quarter-mile in high-11s at around 120 mph.
