That red button wasnt an aux. He had his jake hooked up to it. and even an aux. amount to enough unless he put a MUCH taller set of gears in the rear end and used the aux. for the low side. Either way at the end of the day, its still a ford, an its not a cat...aint much but is what it is lol
Source Grodie IKR? He keeps saying “ oh that whistle tho, from far this sounds like a ricer, you turn your jakes on for fun huh?, that lady looked at me like...”, bro stop already, he’s busy driving.
Nothing sounds as cool as the old detroits. The sound and smell are unmistakable. They bring back sweet memories of being on the road with Dad when I was young.
Seeing two young men in old Ford especially one with a 2 stroke makes me proud! Most youngsters I see have a riced out civic withe the tires cambered out.
I absolutely love my 96 F-150 with the 300 i6 and the 5 speed manual, and I'm only 20. I don't like cars, but love trucks. I plan on having an old dodge power wagon with a Detroit in it.
If he thought that was revved up, he's led a sheltered life. That engine was designed to SCREAM! I hate hearing it lug, hope you still have this truck, I'd kill to have one like it.
can't beat the Detroit for sound. but you can't beat the cummins for power. this engine stock will only generate 180-200 HP max. its definitely a awesome job done though. im also glad to see him build a FORD
6v53t is the one to get honestly, such a narrow power band on these engines it is hard to tow over 5t without a 10spd. 6v53t makes about 30% more power and torque, and is a 6cly so better for boost
Two smells I love in this world. Diesel and 2-Stroke. Listen to that 2-stroke free wheel. I wouldn't mind swapping my 5.9L Cummins with that Detroit 2-stroker.
Joe John the only place I know you can get a full 453t engine remade is us diesel remanufacturing llc. We got our engine from them but it costs 12,300 unfortunately, but they make it brand new and it’s top quality, same sound tho. I wanted to get jakes installed but I can’t find any.
A good freiend of mine put a 353 Jimmy in his 1968 Ford pickup with a 5 speed. Top speed was only 65 mph but he could pull his 26 ft. vacation trailer over Snoqualmie Pass in direct drive. He got 26 mpg with it too. I drove it and it wasn't gutless.
@@strawberryroan1941 the fact your rig has lasted that many miles must mean you're really good at shifting properly! Yes I'm bored driving anything with an automatic
555 Cummins is a good engine but the old Detroit are good to i put a 555 cummins in our service truck and I am putting a 6v53 Detroit in a 79 chevy k2500 and have many other detroits in our trenchers and other equipment they are very dependable engines
It's the perfect teenager vehicle.. loud so you always know when they are leaving or getting home, good sounding and is fun to drive, but not fast enough to really break the speed limit or kill yourself with. (unless you rolled it)
I've looked and saw your running 3.53's. Are there any gears to make it go a little faster? Also is this that D70 rear ended or whatever? I'd like to build one in my last years of high school.
Here is a trick when running stop light to stop light .. throttle up till she gets the Rapp sound ( 2 cycle diesels do that) then slip clutch in say third then dump off clutch... then stand on it!!!! sit back and hold on!!! 17 year truck driver long haul exp.. got to love 2 cycle Detroit's!!!
In other words just do a third gear boost launch and completely smoke the clutch right out of Er! Lol not a good idea. The clutch for this is probably really expensive to replace
I really enjoyed this video. It took me back 15 years ago when I was able cruise around with friends. After you turn 30 and have kids things just change. Awesome video and awesome truck.
Gotta love the 2 stroke Detroit’s. No power, but they’re fun to drive. I use to run a tomato hauler with an 8v53 and it’s was a blast until pulling the grades lol. Don’t ever sell that truck, it’s way too damn cool.
what about diff gear ratio. it sounds like its geared almost perfect. u say its got a fuller 6206, whats it out of. is it a 8 speed? I think id like t start collecting parts...nice job.
I was at a trucking show back a few years ago and found the Detroit Diesel booth. I asked the kid/young man when did DD get away from the blowers. He had no idea what I was talking about. He asked if I were inquiring about turbos. Nope. Blowers.
At least you're prepared.. you got your toolbox in the passenger seat haha your mates a foreskin, something we can do without.. but AWESOME truck though 😀🤘
Passenger knows he’s on camera and His attempts to be funny are the definition of cringe. Absolutely embarrassing to listen to. Truck sounds awesome, especially when it’s engine braking. him complaining about it being slow and loud just makes him look like an idiot. Awesome swap
Hi 👋 Sir how am I supposed to hear 👂 your Screaming Jimmy when got the music 🎵 up loud can’t hear your Detroit Sir try do better next time thank you 🙏 sir
there really is some terrible us tv shows over here in the uk, one show going on about the 8-71 chevy blower on this piece of shit gasser,,, when im shouting you stole that off an 8v71at the tv.. mention nothing about its original application. detroit diesels had the blowers,, its the petrol people who stole this idea for themselves,,. I love 2stroke the I found 2stroke diesel and its like as an engine its like that girlfriend youll never have!!!!
what do u rev it to tanner, its sounds like its over 2500rpm they sound so cool. is that stock rpm or is it hopped up. I drive semis for 30 ys remember hot rodding the 475 silver...8v 92ta we put 110 injectors v12 fuel pump& overdriven blower then we would remove that orifice off the rack to prevent black smoke. man they would lay rubber. I have a 81 gm 3/4 ton 4x4 it would b perfect for a 453.
Joe Nichol Yeah its def over 2500 hah. Around 3200. I have the specs on my other videos description. Its not stock by any means. I threw that fuel modulator thing in the trash.
I love the evil sound of this truck... Id love to have one like it .. I can just imagine how quickly I would piss off my neighborhood just putting out with it.... 😂
I can see ya friend don't knw Jack Shit about diesels...anything automotive as far as I can see...I think he's gotta a little sugar in his tank...My cummins is loud and my girlfriend loves it..
Very cool that they played Metallica. Especially when he started whining out that 2-stroke. Just coincidence that the song happened to start at the point in which the video shows a truck trying to run down the little kid in his nightmare, but very cool nonetheless.
Peachezz131 good luck man haha. I was lucky enough to find a complete running engine with them on it. but there on sale on ebay al the time for about 5800 for 4 :) hahaha
tanner zeiler Oh wow haha that's what I was afraid of. And btw, I saw in your other video that you got the motor out of a ditch digger. I just think that's awesome cuz my dad and I got a 6V53N out of a ditch digger :) I might just put that in my pickup truck if my dad will let me. But like your buddy in the video said, I really like the turbo whistle of the 4-53T. Btw, what size turbo did you use?? It seems like a good fit for that motor.
Peachezz131 its actually out of a big crane lol. nice! its just the stock airesearch to4 turbo. its alright but hard to build boost in a 2 stroke. it clears up the some nicely. im going to experiment with water meth injection and different turbos in the future but for now I cant hurt it with this setup
He has his heart right ,just needs to learn how to shift it ( and yes I do mean NO CLUTCH) and down shift. I think he's gonna come around. Once he learns that is is easier &faster he'll wonder why he didn't do it sooner.i learned to drive a dump truck in the pits when I was 14. It was a GMC with a 653 and a split shift 4/5 , it was a POS but when you are 14 it was and I was cooler than B.J. And the bear
