1641 7/30/2005 4:37:25 PM 7/31/2005 Ken White admin@LuxuryCoachLifestyle.com I'm looking at a 76 Newell Hi Brian Johnston or anyone else who may want to comment on this post! I have been pondering what to do with my 1976 Newell with the 555? I also own a 1978 with the 6V92T turbo which was switched out by a previous owner in 1986 from a non turbo 6V92. The rated horsepower is 375 and seems to fair well. The 555 in the 1976 only has around 150k miles but has some rattling going on the left side of the engine and smokes gray on that bank, I was thinking of changing the engine out with a modern power plant but since Newell does not really think it's feasable I may consider the Cummins 903 since, if it is easier and does not need the trans changed. I see a lot of 903 engines around, what I'm wondering is what kind of power are you getting out of yours with the turbo?
