[QUOTE=C10 - C90 Bill;8119360]I fixed it for you Bob. I believe the 4-53 was also available in these trucks, but they really didn't mention it in the video./QUOTE]

Thanks for fixing the link. As I remember, the 8.2L Detroit 'Fuel Squeezer' replaced the Detroit 4-53T in '79 or '80. I think for one model year both were available in the regular C series mediums. The 3208 Cat was only available in the high mount cab-high hood TopKick and Kodiak. A lot of promotional material at the time also listed the Cummins VT-225 as an option in the TopKick/Kodiak as well, but there is some doubt any were actually built.
