The best thing about having a detroit in a truck is that it removes the need to install a stereo system. Nothing beats the sweet music of a jimmy singing its lungs out.
Oh I concur, that’s some good medicine now.
Burned five gallons of diesel today just to hear my straight-piped 8v71 behind me for a while.
@@macelius OHH! So you’re to blame for these gas prices after all ay? Lol.
@@OVRxNxOUT LOL, it's hardly gotten driven recently, but she's no sipper.
@@macelius I miss my diesel. I didn’t have anything like y’all though. I had a juiced up 08’ Duramax.
Anyway, many ppl on those left-winged media outfits say, - all you ppl with these big trucks need to start thinking twice about keeping them. Saying you should take em all down to the crusher then go buy yourselves a Prius or Tesla.
…Boys, that shit got me heated. They don’t understand how shit works in this country like they think they do, do they.
The Detroit Diesel is the single best way yet found by man of turning fuel into sound and smoke..
Love that quote! Thank you. 😊
Any engine will do that. My snowmobile did
@@jlo13800 Nope, not the same in my book.
The 2 Stroke Detroit Diesel was one of the best friends that the hearing aid industry ever had 🤪😍😇
WHAT? Cant hear you.
Yep just a bad left ear. Summer window down and a screaming Detroit.
Tell me about it. I'm hearing disabled from 30 years of unregulated noise control in the work place!
Imagine a backfire from a 12v71 on alcohol and klotz techni plate
Agreed. My grandfather had a hearing aid well before he retired. Detroits were common in BC, Canada. The entire fishing and logging industry relied heavily on them.
The Greta Dumberg clip after the tractor pull was epic! 😆😆😆
How Dare You
😂😂
Yes, greetings 👌.
What an idiot.
@@satunnainenkatselija4478 🤣🤣🤣
She’d much rather have natural gas
Yeah those old Detroit two stroke engines carried the industry a long time I never get tired of listening to them , so many companies relied on them Caterpillar , Michigan and so many more and alot of those companies are still around and alot richer because of that one engine just amazing to me !!!
I hear one every fall, can't believe my ears but it's true.
My town still has an old international with a 2 stroker in it for leaf pickup.
Probably one of the last road ones ,an early 80s model.
They sound good to everyone except the man sitting behind it all day. They did more then lead the industry the Detroit built this country.
Detroit diesel engine's & the old school mack trucks with the cummins engine would always catch my attention because there so menacing like a monster roar godzilla comes to mind whenever heard either one of these engines
Don't forget their role in WWII!
@@jamescarter1500Yes they did! And even some parts of the free world. Love those old Detroit's!
When I began long haul truck driving in 1974, and I began as an owner operator, my first truck, a 1970 international cabover, had a 318 hp detroit V8. They used to "lope" like the ones in the video. You had to drive them "like you were mad at them" was the conventional wisdom.
Like Jon Bonham drumming
Nah, more like Ginger Baker.
i was driving a 1969 dump truck down around a friends shale pit after school that had a 318 in it. now i was only around 14 at the time and the first thing he told me was to beat the crap out of it and just stay pissed off at it or it will never run.
he junked that truck back in the 80es but i have that old 318 and the transmission a 8 speed ranger sitting on a stand in the back of my garage. i have never turned a bolt on it the thing is a oil crusted mess and it will start and run every time i crank it over.
Great story!
They were the best at the high range roms!
“How dare you”, Hilarious!!!
Great compilation video.
2 stroke Detroit Diesels:
Converting fuel into noise for decades
Some decades ago (ca. 1970 until about 1991), Seattle Fire's trucks were mostly Kenworths w/ either 6-71 or 8V-71 power. To me, there was nothing quite so haunting as hearing a bunch of them, responding to a night fire call, Federal "Qs" screaming away, air horns, and the straight-piped (w/ Jakes) sound of those engines...
A local fire truck manufacturer where I live in Pennsylvania called Hahn Fire Apparatus or just Hahn motors also used 8v71 Detroits in their trucks too they ran from 1916 until 1989 a Buddy of mine owns a 1982 hahn Hcp-10 pumper truck with an 8v71
Detroit powered just about all fire apparatus during those years. Good thing too, you might be in pump for a couple of hours, or a couple of days. They are loud, leak and not very fuel efficient. But when you hit that button and it fired, you knew as long as it has fuel (Jimmy Juice) it wont quit. We trusted our lives to Detroit and those Jimmy's never let us down! I Never could say that about CAT.
Ha, Federal Q2, that brings back a flood memories. Many a night i almost pushed that foot switch through the floor board coming up to an intersection! Jimmy Jakes and a screaming Q...sweet music of good times.
Around here in Connecticut all the older Seagrave ladders and engines were the old Detroits you would get to the scene before the fire started
@@longrifle. somebody’s house burning down while they stand in the street in their pajamas is probably not the definition of good times, as thrilling as the occasion may be for a fireman.
@@redbluesome2829 Your focus on two words is noted. However, let me educate you on another word, Firefighter. It's Firefighter because not all of us are men. We call it respect.
34yrs on the job, don't question my empathy.
Started my career in 1979 working on detroit 2 stroke marine engines in the Navy, they were used in all the small craft, all the 71 series from 2-71's to 16-71's, all the 53's and 92's. I loved those engines, After the Navy I ran a marine repair company, I still have all the special tools and all the factory tech books for the Detroits.
Badass! I plan to buy a truck w a 671 someday.
That’s amazing, a lot of the information will be lost someday unless someone scans in all of the pages to digitize them
Nothing compares to the sound of an old 2-stroke Detroit
Just love it.
I actually like the sound of the mercury optimax 300SX v6 a bit better
Scania V8 :P
@@lolishit6071 Scania 2 stroke brapp forever. Ported liners too and running castor 927 maxima 2 stroke oil.
I used to pass trucks going up the grapevine, fully loaded. Other truckers would always ask about the engine. It was a V-92, V8.
Silver 8v92. I got one sitting out back with garret turbo.
LMAOROTF!! That Greta insert freaking killed me!! Lol 😂
Those Ol' Two Stroke Detroits had a very distinctive sound about them. Kinda miss that now days, they all sound about the same anymore. Thanks for sharing.
The Achates opposed piston two stroke engines sound a lot like a D.D. and it's the most efficient diesel ever made.
The Coast Guard still runs them in our lifeboats. Twin 6V92s sound good cold after a weekend of only hearing 4 strokes. Parts are hard/impossible to find. OE at least.
I don‘t believe those 2stroke- diesels were as efficient as 4stroke diesels of that period. Besides the good sound and maybe good torque. - It‘s about cost- efficentcy and air-pollution- not loudness or call it good sound. Do you like loud good sound when you want to sleep near a road ?? Nostalgia has it‘s room in the small numbers of old trucks still driving.
Would think a new Polaris. 850 patriot turbo snowmobile motor is a jimmy. It’s a 2 stroke and jimmy is done slang term for them.
KX500 brapp
I started trucking with a freight shaker with 318 Detroit 13 speed and 4.44 rears. I was 23 and in tall cotton. I'm 67 now, alot has changed.
Me too! And still drive it today
I'm 68 now, drove 8v71 and a 8v92 for a week while the old Transtar got fixed, we put a lot of miles on that 1970 transtar with the 8v71, 2 of us over 6 feet tall stuffed in there like sardines, buddy paid me $100 a week and all I could eat in 1982.
I just retired from 30 years in the fire service, we had 3 trucks with Detroits in them, a 1974 American LaFrance with a 6V92 and a 1971 Pierce Snorkel with a 8V71 and 1991 E-One with the Silver Series 8V92, they were all incredible powerplants, that scream they had at the upper RPM range would give me goosebumps.
Luv yth sound rap and tap!! Lol
Enjoy retirement brother!
@Michael Freeland You can't be serious, I drove a firetruck in the early-mid 1990's with a Silver Series 8V92, 450 horsepower, 1,450 lb.ft. of torque at 1,250 rpm's. So how you figure no torque
@Michael Freeland I've forgotten more than you'll ever know about engines boy.
@Michael Freeland that's right, boy. I'm 57 years old and like I said, I've forgotten more about engines than you'll ever know!!! And just what do you consider a good torquey engine then smartass???
That Loping cadence is sweet music to my ears.
Diesel, the modern power, the life blood of a nation proud and free.
Same goes for gas ethanol DFI 2 stroke. The mighty Polaris 850 turbo khaki new sleds. For tge same boost PSI an ethanol SI makes way more power than the same sized 2 stroke diesel. Tge Polaris patriot scaled up to 660 CID inline 6 2 stroke.
Love those engines lol and that Greta part was hilarious
Lol! For any who wonder it’s at 4:27
At trucking school, back in the mid 80's, we trained on a bunch of old LTL White day cabs with 6V92T's hooked up to long-throw Spicer 7spds. That engine was so easy to drive, with it's lack of heavy freewheel, it shifted just slightly slower than a car tranny. We got spoiled on those trainer trucks, and when they got us driving on the GMC cabovers with the CAT motors with road-ranger 9 spds, we had to totally re-learn what 'double clutching' meant!
I hate cats they don’t reve worth a shit. Some 4-53’s turned up almost sound like the new Polaris patriot 850 khaos turbo sleds out now.
I have driven both and prefer the fast jimmies, never liked the road ranger 18. Why do US diesels black smoke so much? I do not remember this from years ago.
@@howardsimpson489 With a minimal 300 hp, a 13sp is really all you'll ever need. An 18sp is a tranny for severe mountain work, usually involving logging....
As for smoke, I think drivers are putting more miles on their motors these days, and more black smoke is a result of more aged engines.
There's been a couple generations of Americans that would have starved to death without the tens of thousands of Detroit Diesel powered trucks that hauled agricultural products from the field to the silos all over flyover country. Then throw in all the other vehicles and pieces of equipment that have been powered by DD engines and their contribution to our country is undeniable.
@@alexclement7221 Black smoke is more fuel than necessary, or high torque demand. Blue smoke is wear. Most of these trucks likely have larger than spec injectors for additional power.
I'm 72 years old and haven't had the pleasure of driving tractor-trailer for 50 years now. Sure brings back the finest of old memories! How I love those sounds!
12v71 running ethanol/methanol 118 octane
Godamn! Puts a big ole smile on my face every time I hear an old Detroit 2 stroke 😆☺️💯🔥
Nothing sounds like an ole school Detroit, you knew what kinda engine it was without even seeing the truck, and they sounded real good when they were on the open road, wound up and humming.
The mercury optimax 300SX sounds good. It’s got way more power N/A than any NA 6v53. Done 2.5 push over 450 HP.
Nothing compares to the sound of those two-stroke Detroit Diesels! The first Diesel engine I worked on was a Detroit 8V-71 and I have been in love with them every since then!
This makes me even happier that most of the fire departments including mine still run the 6 and 8v92ta. We took the muffler off of most and since the stations are not even a mile apart, you can hear them leaving the bays 😂
Magical!!!!!
That dude at 2:35 sounds like he should be running 150m.p.h. lol
I would never let a detroit hunt like that - turn on fast idle and keep up oil pressure if you want that engine to last. I ran 16v71's and 16v92's and fast idle is a must!
I haven't heard that word "hunt" as a description of the loping behavior of the engine at low idle for half a century. You're right about it.
The hunting is from a bad tune-up. The buffer screw is to be used for not dieing at idle after rack goes from full throttle to idle abruptly. Injectors are not set properly. Rack is out of adjustment.
love marinized Detroit Diesel (Gray Marine) - th-cam.com/video/0TKIxy6K2Ak/w-d-xo.html
My late uncle ran an 8V92 on livestock after growing out of inline Cummins in the late 1970s. He had to lift 2 decks of steers from Black Mountain Station, SW of Suggan Buggan in the remote Victorian alps. He always said with pride, that they put my breakfast on (as was the custom then) when they first heard that GM bark. It was cooked by the time he arrived.
Got a 6V92TA in my 1985 Bluebird Wanderlodge with a 5" exhaust running through a single resonator. What a beautiful sound! Thanks for the great Detroit's screaming away in this video!!
Knew a farmer that stuck one of them in a Farmal tractor. Man did that thing go through the field, when it was running. Spent quite a bit of time waiting for a new clutch or ta. The clutch or ta would of probably held up if it had been operated proper. He was one of those crazy ones.
Throw in a Nissan UD6 2 stroke with turbo!
Best sound ever, I love them with air starters.
How about a pull starter!
In 74 we trained on the inline and V 6-71s in the Navy. Loved those babies. Powerful and easy to work with.
3:13 How cute. A couple who first talked calmly, but one got mad and then started arguing with each other later on!!
Got a 79 grain truck with a 671, all the old farmers love hearing that truck coming up the hills
I hear 6V92TA's fire up every morning in our boats at work. Very recognizeable sound !
I had a pair of 8v92s in my last boat. Great motors, and unmistakable sound. Series 60s are better in every way, except for the exhaust music.
The green screamers have personality and a soundtrack like no other. As a little kid in Jersey I still remember all those gm buses and day cab freighters playing their song.
Learned for my CDL on an 8v92 Silver with 13 speed western star. Felt like a giant hot rod with how fast it rowed through the gears. It was actually quiet with the turbo and twin mufflers, but still had that cool sound and big power.
5:47 Now THAT is one BEAUTIFUL Kenworth!! I love it already!!
In the mid to late 60's there was a carnival that came to town every year. And what supplied all of the electricity for the entire carnival? Not one , but two (2) Detroit 12v71, both had double turbos and blowers, both engines were painted white with lots of chrome accessories and were cradled and bolted to a flat-bed trailer. The engines were covered on the flatbed with clear Plexiglas (I think). Anyway, those Detroit's would sing. As a son of a truck driver and a young boy it was a beautiful thing, and that is why I always loved Detroit's. Seems toooo me that who-ever owned the carnival loved and was very proud of his power unit as well.
Whether it's a Silver 92 or a Buzzin' Dozen, or whatever, you can't beat the sound of those old 2 Stroke Detroit Diesels.
Yes sir! Could listen to that all day long! Thanks mate!
I first learned to drive in a 1974 International coe and a 1974 Ford Louisville 9000 and they both had 8V71 318 hp. My first truck was a brand new GMC General with an 8V92 435 hp. For those who don’t know what the 71 or 92 means is the amount of cubic inch per cylinder. And they where 2 strokes engines. If tuned right they pulled pretty good for the time.
When I started working on Buses they were phasing out the ones with the 6v92. The rest of the fleet had Series
50s. A handful had the Cummins M11. Never got a chance to work on the 6V92 but absolutely love watching these videos. Thanks for sharing.
In person gives a whole new meaning. There is a deepness that goes with it that video can't deliver. Sweet video either way
I miss going to bed with my ears ringin' from a screaming jimmy!
Nothing sounds better than an old Detroit especially when you throw on the Jakes
I drive a 12V71 in a freight liner through the mountains to Vancouver BC. It had top power that made the trips enjoyable. 👏👏👏
The 2stroke Detroit in my dad’s old rig had 278,000 miles on it before he had it rebuilt. By the time he got rid of it, It had well over a million miles on the road, everything (drivetrain wise) had been repaired, replaced and/or rebuilt.
Thanks for sharing the video, best of luck 🍀
Such a unique engine and used in everything, in every possible combination
more moving parts per cubic inch of any engine out there.
Loved to hear them run hated working them but when they come apart they always got me home
That's the sweetest sound I've ever heard, does something unexplainable to me, screw efficiency that sound is worth every dollar of diesel.💯
mart.cummins.com/imagelibrary/data/assetfiles/0058689.pdf
🤣😂🤣 GREAT JD PULL ENDING!!!
I had a 4-71 in an old Galion T500A. That thing was a beast.
As a diesel technology student...these kinds of videos are ones I really enjoy watching!
Are you into 2 stroke design. How about going a Cst 3516 2 stroke conversion with cutting Polaris patriot 850 port patters into tge liners. Making an aluminum water jacket and air boost with power valves.
Bring back a lot of memories
As someone who isn't deeply into trucks, it would be so unnatural to be walking and hear something that sounds like an old Subaru, but then you turn and see a giant ass truck flying down the road.
I loved the sound of these motors so much that i could still hear them 4 hours after i shut the truck off...
Brings me back childhood of dad's Detroit screaming down our streets as he came home from work, triggering off our liberal neighbors.
In the end the truck was sold off for part and a decade later I saw it in the scrap yard in pieces and it broke my heart. Because that truck was my hero as a kid and now it felt to me it was slowly losing its sole in a junk yard.
Old screaming Detroit's!
That John Deere pulling the sled was Awesome & the KW log truck at the end
We had a Trans Star with a 318 Detroit, it always ran great. I drove my friends military Gama Goat its and amphibious 6 wheel drive transport vehicle and it had a 3-53 Detroit in it and you were almost sitting right along side of that engine when driving. I drove it about 40 miles to a truck show and I didnt even make it out of his driveway before I was wearing ear muffs. Currently I have an M977 HEMTT 8 wheel drive military transport truck and its got an 8V92 it makes just under 500 hp and its a true joy to drive, love that Detroit!
I loved my Hemtt wrecker. That thing would pull anything.
I have a lot of time driving the gama goat. We had them in my Army reserve unit. They were loud that's for sure.
Very enjoyable! Keep on trucking!Thank you for sharing!
I worked for Mission Ready mix in Ontario CA that had a pair of 2 axle petes with 8v92s pulling bottom dumps to feed their redi mix plant. They raced them at ontario motor speedway in the drags.
You never see that anymore on trucks the old "rain caps" the sound of those things popping up and down in the morning when she's cold sounds beautiful. 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Love the sound of those 2 stroke Detroit diesels sweet!
I might want to convert my 8v92 2 stroke silver into methanol or ethanol and 6 gallons of castor 927 maxima 2 stroke beam oil! I’m already running BRP XD-100 etec oil with great results. She runs smoother with a bit more power. I dumped in 2 quarts of amsoil interceptor 2T for good measure. Full synthetic 2 stroke oil is amazing stuff! Interceptor is at 60$ a gal but I get the XD-100 for 48$ a gal at Walmart . An achates power 2 stroke probably will run with quicksilver TCW3 full synthetic.
Man some classic videos in this playlist, cool!
Thanks for making this video. It’s like music to my ears 🤩
Legendario motor y mitico sonido que en México conocimos por los autobuses Dina y Masa Somex , esos 8 y 6 v 71 son una verdadera maravilla.
I love the cold start clip!!!! Turn over. Stop. Turn over stop. Smoke comes out the stacks means the symphony is warmed up!!
Wasnt it why starting fluid was invented.? Because those older Detroit's didn't have a cold weather starting system, glow plugs, intake grid heaters, engine or fuel heaters. Probably still today, you'll see empty cans and/or open case of starting fluid behind the seat inside of the cab of those old Detroit-powered trucks. Love those Detroit's!
Now that's some sweet rides . Love that Jimmy .
That tractor made a full pull. Greta Thunburg pops up. HOW DARE YOU! 🤣🤣🤣
Always loved the sound of Detroits.
Everything we had, had a Detroit in it. Draglines, Cranes, Trucks and Concrete pumps. Great stuff.
Those GM Detroit’s, nice and LOUD!! That’s what I’m talking about! 😎👍🏾🥳🤟🏾🇺🇸🤴🏾
I think the 71 series sounded best . However the little 6V53 made a Magical Noise . 8V92 TTA series were the Fastest thing around in their day .
A Nissan 8VM75 603 CID 2 stroke diesel
My dad learned to drive truck in a 1967 Kenworth conventional with an 8V71 Detroit in it. Ill never forget how loud it was. He came rolling up to the house one day in it, and you could hear that truck coming up for at least four or five blocks; it really sounded cool.
Years later, he went to work for a fellow who leased his trucks out to Elliott Bay Trucking out of Seattle (the ones who haul the trailers whose cans were removable and stackable on ships and trains). Dude put my dad in a nice black and silver 1979 Peterbilt 359 with a Silver 92 in it.
Loved them old Detroits
Trucks have come along way since then so easy to drive and just tame since these days
Yes, I will take one of each, thank you!
I'm lost for words music to my ears nothing better then old Detroits
Amazing sound!😍
That Detroit sound is music!
Beautiful!
Ah yes. The GMC brigadier pump truck I used to drive sounded like this. I always wanted to drive the brigadier instead of the Volvo truck.
Loved the sound.
Late ‘70s summer nights listening out the window at Parleys Summit 6% grade. Jakes headed down and full throttle going up.
Nothing like a double breasted Yamaha my dad retired from Detroit diesel I loved going to work with him on dyno days and listen to the sound of them running on the dyno
My first 4 years Driving for my Dad. Were spent running one of his 2 1975 Dodge Bighorns from Denver to Dallas 3 turns a week. Powered by 8V92 Silver.
it was a 1982 KW K100E that got me hooked on stroker Detroits. 8V92TA hooked to an Allison automatic. Sexiest truck that ever pulled tanks. Sitting on top of that 435hp Silver unit was a joy.
Yup I remember the first silver we got was a ta 435 then we got a 445 The exhaust manifolds on the 445 were painted like flames.
I got a 475 hp 8v92 turbo
@Bruce Miller what oil do you like to use in your engine?
Nothing beats the sound of a Detroit two-stroke!
This does and makes way more power for it size m.th-cam.com/video/DUhC6VnL6_s/w-d-xo.html I would hate to see that rotax scaled up to an inline 6 850 cubic inche 2 stroke.
I still hear and see them now and again. Not nearly enough but a few.
Ein Traum, da geht einen das Herz auf. Danke dafür.
Such beautiful sounds
Nothing like the feeling of oh shit that comes over you when you experience your first Detroit "run away". You hung in there like a champ and got her to shut down. I imagine it had the old style rack probably ? I miss working on these. Cool video. Peace be with you
That brings back memories of when I was attending college in Oregon back in the 70’s I was living in a motel and right across the highway in the other motel was staying about ten contract log truck drivers for a company that the trucks where cabover GMC trucks with a sleeper. They would start those trucks at around 4.00 am and immediately run them up to about 1,800rpm , no need for a alarm clock 🤪🤪🤪👍
Those 8V92 sound so angry, I love it🥰
I got a silver turbo 8v92
These are the trucks I remember feom my childhood.
I miss these sounds.
2:20 Hey, I remember that video!! So funny when the guy made the engine run away!! (But sadly felt bad for it since 2 stroke Detroit diesels are legends.)
Delaney and Alf out of Bakersfield CA, tuned all 12v71s then into the silver series 8v92 They definitely had some Personality when they come out.
Takes me back to the days where you learned how to drive a truck, you wasn't taught. You paid attention to what the old timers told you.
now thats music to my ears
brings back memories of happier days and and real trucks! that looked and sounded like real trucks!
beautiful creatures! 👌
What do you mean real trucks. They are still real trucks todays but look different.
i had a 68 coe with a 318 Detroit and it was loud as hell white freightliner
That 71 K100 sounds like a pissed off monster
Nothing beats a big old Euclid screaming up the incline at the steel mill
