The carb is small to efficiently atomize the fuel at low engine
speeds, where this motor was designed to run. Since it isn't
designed to run fast it doesn't need lots of air.
The gas motors came first. The diesels came later if I recall
correctly.
The 10 ton's had a really cool gas moter with 844 CUIN displacement!
What a monster!

I saw a big 5 ton truck with a huge gas motor and a little bitty
carb!
Does anybody know anything about gas motors in the 5ton?
I thought the only engine options were multifuel, cummins, or
mack diesel.
