The maximum width of 10 ft 8 in (3.25 m) on 41 ft 3 in (12.57 m) (AAR Plate B), 46 ft 3 in (14.10 m) (AAR Plate C) and all other truck centers (of all other AAR Plates) are on a 441 ft 8 + 3 ⁄ 8 in (134.63 m) radius or 13° curve. [30] [31] In all cases of the increase of truck centers, the decrease of width is covered by AAR Plates D1 and D2.
Fuel tanks of a capacity greater than 25 US gallons must adhere to specifications for spillage, leakage, mounting, impact survivability, weld requirements, venting and a host of other stipulations. The regulations require side-mounted fuel tanks to survive a 30-foot drop test, while non-side-mounted fuel tanks must survive a 10-foot drop test.
Output is 167 hp (125 kW; 169 PS) at 3,400 rpm with 380 N⋅m (280 lb⋅ft) of torque at 1,400 rpm. The fuel system is direct injection, and adopts the electronic fuel injection (EFI) system. Redline of this engine is at 4200 rpm. The 4 valves per cylinder are actuated by the SOHC, by using bridges so each rocker actuates a pair of valves.
