I have not run across many of those basically a school bus engine. 170-180 horse class I believe emission standards killed that diesel. The MT643 is a solid medium duty Allison usually found in school buses 6 wheel dumps straight trucks etc. A good 4 spd auto.

Honest answer DT466 same trans MT643 or T444E same trans. 7.8L is a good diesel same trans. The 6.6L I did not have much experience with.
