holy Yeoow! VT-365's in big long RE busses.. take Heed of that... and the fact RE busses can have cooling issues.. and a temp gauge of 240-250 in a VT-365 is an INSTANT death sentence due to use of plastic internally in the oil circuit of those engines..

Gotcha, that makes sense now.

When I saw it, I was scratching my head, reading it as "accessory" and MCI (thinking of the coach bus manufacturer).

Allison 3000 in a dognose? I thought the 3000's were all for RE..

ACC / veleo makes a decent A/C system.. still current and able to get parts for most of them.. i almost used their gear for the DEV

ive never heard of mci for A/C.. not sure what that brand is..

ECCB - if I find the perfect shorty without A/C, and you find the perfect one with A/C, I'll take the A/C off your hands lolol
