Tim,

I don't believe that 8.2 is original. They did put some 4-53 Detroits in some earlier models (some '60 to '66 style Trucks) and some in later models (somewhere around mid to late '70's). I would have to check my books to see if any were put in '67 to '72 models, as I cannot remember seeing any. But there is another Diesel that were put in '67 to '72 style trucks for sure and that was the Toro-Flow (V-6 Conversions).

BTW, that is a super nice truck. 70 Step, does it have Air Brakes?
