This is the specs on one type of Kenworth Prime mover. They also have the C-16 and C-17 Cat Engines pushing up to 950 HP with over 2,000 ft lbs of twist!! All this out of a 6 cylinder.
Portlink’s new K104s are all configured as B Doubles, rated to 90 tonnes. Each cab-over features a Caterpillar C-15 engine with 550 hp producing 1850 lb/ft of torque, 18-speed Fuller Roadranger RTLO20918 transmission with double overdrive, Dana Spicer DS462P (4.33 ratio) rear axles and Kenworth Airglide airbag suspension. In addition, each truck incorporates an Aerodyne 2.3-metre integrated sleeper as well as ABS and special square, long-distance fuel tanks with a 1400-litre capacity.
