Still haven't identified my transmission...
I know less than shinola about diesel engines, transmissions, and drivetrain.
I hoped a vin search would help me identify my transmission (ID plate painted over, and not stamped)
But, vin search pretty much told me what I already knew.

From everything I've read on here over the last several months, the DT466 and MT643 combo is like the Holy Grail. I'm envious!

It's a great combination. But the DT466(e) or ISC 8.3L with the MD3060 is the holy grail.

I stand corrected. I will henceforth refer to the DT466/MT643 combo as "The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch".
