I think Mike's came with a matching set of kidney belts.
Shawn York's own words....Until you've used a blower driven by a diesel engine, you will never really understand (or something to that nature).
The old Venturi 777 units had 59 blowers at something like 83% of capacity, and every one of those owners swears the vacuum rivals a 68 blower as some have both, I think the 59 is plenty personally, if it's plumbed correctly, not taking anything away from my V/AT guys, plenty of them out there and they are happy.
Something I always wondered, what is the List cost of a replacement 7000 blower if one has an issue?
Anyone replace one yet, what was the out the door cost for a shop to do a full repalcement? Cause I ain't doing it in my garage! :shock:

If TerraClean has a 7000 (and I think they do) then I think they are 5k. They blew theirs using the blower to pump vegetable oil in to the tank. I don't think it was covered by the warranty.

Are there any on the road that have all the upgrades and goodies? It would be interesting to compare.

I have at least one guy who welded a third 2" port on his 777 tank so he could use my 2.5" Vanifold, that same fellow also bought a used 68 not to long ago, and reported it wasn't any better in the Vac dept, so he orderd another Vanifold, He is in MN if memory serves.

I ask the service company for tuthill in Cleveland what replacement cost would be after failure . He said about $7000.00 Dollars. And probably about a 4 week wait. :shock:

I was thinking about doing the samething to one of my sprinters before I chose a Genesis, but there is no room under the sprinter and illegal inside.
