Too bad you don’t see V10s in American pickups anymore. Ford even offered them in the Excursion SUV and the Econoline van. Such American heavy-duty vehicles with class-2 variants really are reducing their options these days.
@@janjanchick no. But it’s tolerated depending where you live. It’s like tinted windows. It also depends on the vehicle. A lot of class 8 trucks in this area run open pipes and there’s not a whole lot of fuss.
Just got done driving our 84 series r with the same transmission. I know your not "supposed" to split the gears with the Hi-Lo but my grandfather, dad and now me have been doing it for 40 years now on the same original transmission lol.
That would be tough to do with the 2 stick 6 speed. Going from high 1st hi to low 2nd would be a down shift. Same with going from 2nd high to low 3rd, and 3rd hi to 4th lo and 4th hi to 5th lo. It really wouldn't make sense to shift it like that.
Actually a 6 speed 1 transmission 5 on the left stick. High, low and reverse on the right. Only used the main 5 in high with the maxidyne on the road. Gave you 5 reverse gears and 5 PTO speeds with the right stick in nuetral
Yeah you know that Ford always idled like that pretty sure it’s factory timing like 4 or 6 degrees of timing but yes as far as we know it’s a stock cam just idles real low
What the hell is wrong with you. Don’t use the engine brake in between shifting. It’s bad for the engine and the engine brake solenoids and the transmission. I just think your parents didn’t give you the attention and you have to make attention for yourself now
@@662chungus6 i wish theyd sell the american companies back to the chrysler family or to someone like tim kuniskis (i know people didnt like him but he was being turned into a puppet by stellantis, i guarantee you if he had his way, dodge wouldnt be in the situation it is rn. they also wouldnt have canceled the lighter chargers and challengers that would have had a 7L NA hemi in it). the chrysler family or tim could definitely save dodge, chrysler, jeep, and ram.
a hemi v10 with a properly scaled blower (lengthened to fit the v10), in a street truck or a HiPo off roader would be awesome! sadly unless they make a 2.5L turbo i5 based off the hurricane i4 turbo and hurricane i6 TT, a v10 will likely never happen again. and i say this because they could just smash two of those i5s together for a 5L TT v10. then do the same with the i4 and i6. TT 4L flatplane (with gt350 style crank and UEL headers) v8 and quad turbo 6L v12
The n14 is one of the greatest sounding engines on earth. Rolls Royce Merlin is another engine I could listen too all day. V-twins at low revs and MAFless and supercharged v8's also give me a chub.
I got myself a 3500 v10. Pretty great truck. Ive straight piped mine and put an KN coldair intake on it. Fuel mileage is meh but fix 02 sensors and give it more air, itll help a lot
First truck I ever drove was same year Mack concrete mixer, same set up. I got about a five minute lesson, drove around the yard twice and away I went! Won't say it was perfect right out of the gate, but I had it figured after couple hours, never saw another 5/4 set up again after that, this would have been late 90s. Another concrete job later saw me in a Detroit 6v75 with a 13 speed Eaton Fuller with the 3 range splitting, that thing was a blast to drive. Slam your hand in the door and drive angry all day
@@Darth-Nihilus1our 2008 pierce has a straight piped ISL and we also have a 2002 enforcer with some sort of Cummins that also sounds quite mean, no idea what kind of Cummins it is tho
@@Darth-Nihilus1 I would say it’s probably an ISM, it has Jake’s and last I checked I didn’t think the 8.3’s had Jake’s, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9q-3iJ0DxVo.htmlsi=RDg8khF_PvEGQQEV here’s a video I took of the engine Mabye you could tell me
gotta love that sound straight piped 6.0 make , can hear it a mile away. great memories rolling coal all over pregnant women back when I owned one back in 2006
