1979 INTERNATIONAL S1900, 3208 CAT STARTUP. 

Awesome. At my fire station we have at 84 DM mack with the same engine. 210 hp, 5sp auto, 5000 gallons of water. Dual pipes, no mufflers. You can here her form a mile away. Approximately 64,000 lbs fully loaded. Tops out at 55 mph on level ground, but the instant she hits a grade 15 to 20 at best. Oh her nickname is the rolling roadblock. She is reliable, and brings a lot of water to the scene.

The 3208 evolved from the previous 1160, which also displaced 10.4 liters. The 1160 was one of three engines Cat developed in collaboration with Ford and Gillig during the final months of 1967, the other two being the smaller 1140 and 1145 (both 8.6 liters) and the 1150 (9.4 liters).

Awesome classic international dump truck with a good sounding 3208 V8 Caterpillar engine it doesn't have a Doghouse in the Middle like most are

Good thing that 3208 has at least a 13 spd. I used to pull doubles up to 80000 lbs. with ten speeds. took a while Lol. Todd the retired trucker

Yea. Good stuff. Northman

I can smell it now.....

Nice 👍

Are the 3208s good if you turbocharged them??

👍😀🇺🇸

I never new international offered a cat 3208 engine besides there 466 engine

Is that engine original?

My 1980 3208 starts much nicer and doesn’t smoke. Although it only has 16,000 miles unknown hours.
