Shit, I've been asleep at the switch, I had no idea I had missed all these posts.
Poking around in the engine bay today, I saw a data tag on the air cleaner assembly that indicates it's a GM 6.0L
There is a sticker on the back corner, black and white square (45°) that says PROPANE.
I was looking up propane powered schoolbuses and came across an article about San Antonio's Northside that had rolled out a fleet of propane buses; this bus has a northside sticker on the front corner by the driver seat, mustabeen one of their early trucks.
It's a 23 foot bus, but I'm thinking the wheelie bars need to be at least 20 feet for effect.
What should the PSI be for these tires? I know I deflate the rear if I want a better hole shot…Last edited by barronj; 01-24-2017, 11:45 AM.Ronald Reagan:"Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it.

Agility fuel systems. Loves also runs these on some of their fuel tankers. I do not see a diesel tank on them so looks like LNG only. Will drive one next time I get a chanceOriginally posted by Strychnine View PostAre they 100% LNG or are they Westport dual-fuel technology?Last edited by Captain Crawfish; 01-24-2017, 12:32 PM.
