Verplanck's New Engine 128

Is that a front suction or front discharge?

Good eye - To me it looks like a front suction, with the cap having the ability to reduce down to 2 1/2" for the smaller diameter hard suction hose, but I have no idea of knowing if they equipped the rig with the smaller diameter hose.

If it is a 6" LDH discharge, then that would be a first for me.

Hopefully someone from the Point can let us know.

I Do know that Darien CT Engines 41 and 42 have 6" LDH front suction hookups. that they set up for drafting.
