If you have the new Big Cam IV or 88 NT, you will have to also buy a new front water manifold section and thermostat housing. If you have an early Big Cam IC, this can be done with used parts off a Big Cam II or III, along with a new radiator and water pump. We at Pittsburgh Power can convert your low-flow cooling system back to full flow. Peter Sharp, Vice President of Pittsburgh Power, has been working with the Big Cam Cummins for over 30 years and he highly recommends that you revert the low-flow system back to the high-flow system used on all Small Cam and Big Cam I, II and III engines. They can easily overheat in demanding situations, particularly in the heat of summer. The only issue these engines have is their low-flow cooling system.

The Big Cam IV engines are great to work with, especially the later 88 NTs. And congratulations on hitting your 25-year “Chrome” anniversary – what a great accomplishment! Keep up the good work. So, thank you Erik, Jean, Dan and Shannon for your help and friendship during the past 16 years to spread the word to owner operators who want and need a better running diesel engine. Any time one of their clients has a problem, they ask us for help, and we always solve the problem. My how time flies! The working relationship between Pittsburgh Power and 10-4 Magazine has been harmonious, with never a problem between us. The first article I wrote for 10-4 Magazine was in their July 2002 issue some sixteen years ago. We can always tell when it hits the racks, based on the comments we get, about our articles regarding high-performance diesel engines.

Many owner operators wait each month for the arrival of the next 10-4 Magazine. They are always smiling at the truck shows, a lot of fun to go to truck show dinners with, and a pleasure to do business with. WOW – 10-4 Magazine just turned 25 years old! What can I say about the best trucking magazine in the USA – and it’s free! Erik, Jean, Dan and Shannon are the nicest people in the industry to work with.
