Advise please. Isb 5.9l 275hp w/4 speed allison

I'm looking at 2000 MH with the above. I've seen pro and con on the engine but not anything on the power combined with a 4 speed Allison transmission. Any help here would be appreciated.

The 5.9 24 valve ISB is a very good engine. Being rated at 275 HP I am fairly sure that the transmission will be a MT642 which is a heavy duty transmission with lock up torque convertor. MT642 is better than the AT542 which is also a 4 speed but non lock up rated at 235 HP max.

Have had that combo in my 2000 rig for several years and no problems

Good to know, thanks

Jerry and Patsy, I'm looking at a coach like yours, thanks for your input. Is the single AC adequate in hot weather? We'll be mostly in Texas for a couple of years. Thanks for your help.
