The M818 and M52A2 both share the same 6.44 gearsets. The M39s, M809s and M900s all used this gear with only a handful of exceptions and those has 10.26 gears. Oldgoat, is that 210 HP from the dyno or is that number listed somewhere? The only Multifuel to eclipse the 200HP mark was the LDS 465-2 that came in the M656, M757 family. Curious minds want to know. Now I'm no 5 ton expert at all, matter of fact, I've not owned one for nearly 20 years but I thought the primary fuel filter was different but don't quote me on that.
The hp number came off the spec sheet, listed on the gl auction. Mine is a depot rebuild, if that helps any.

I may be missing something but I am going to say it any way, sorry if im not on the same page, the 939 series trucks can have 2 different fuel filters set ups, I am not sure in the order they came out from the factory, But, there was a retro fit to put the 2 filters same to the 800 series of trucks, So I am thinking they went back to the old style for some that got the retro fit, i have the kit for my 925, not saying I will use it, but it is cool to have...:-D... I am trying to remember it was only a month ago I learned this....
