Dave,

Could be a couple of models that fit.  I would assume there are a few Bendix models that would fit.  Do you have a compressor now that you are replacing?

Yes but there still in the bus and working but passing oil time to replace , able to order threw MCI but they will not give you after market part #   if i order threw MCI there approx 1100.00 less 600.00 core problem is to ship back the core to MCI from Yellowknife is at my exspence and it would be real costly .
Thanks for replys

See if you can get the model number off the one in the Bus.  I did that and then cross referenced it through Bendix and found the replacement.  I also found later that there are better updated versions that would have fit and worked better but I kept looking for the same exact model. 

My compressor had a part number stamped into the top as well as a red plate on the side of it.  Was not hard to cross reference once I got those numbers.  This is off a 1984 eagle with a silver 6v-92.   One of the more experienced mechs on the board can probably tell you what models will work in the MCI.  Give them a day or two and they will help you out.

They are not hard to find MCI takes a a 75 degree tilt 700 or 750 cfm compressor here is a Haldex number 289915X any supplier can cross it over if Bendix is your choice same compressor will work on both engines and they are treat to replace on a MCI  ???

good luck

As said it's a Tu-flo 700 or 750 with a Detroit flange, 75 degree tilt.  OEM was Bendix, if you get a Bendix rebuilt unit the MCI price is about exactly what I paid two years ago.  You are going to have to send in the core to get a price in the $500 range.  I got mine from a local truck parts store, it was remanufactured by Bendix, which I highly recommend.
