- I thought I would make a comparison video to show just how loud Herman really is, but the decibel app on my phone wouldn't go that high! I went ahead with filming 2 mufflers and a straight pipe for sound comparison, and then my brother filmed some great action shots of Herman discing.
It's worth noting that since the decibel scale is logarithmic 100db to 103db isn't a 3% increase. Sound pressure intensity doubles every 3 db due to the logarithmic scale. So 103db is TWICE the sound pressure intensity of 100 db, 106 db is 4 times as intense and so on. Anything over 85db will result in long term hearing loss from prolonged exposure.
That is the first they taught us in aircraft maintenance school. Working around jet engines can really damage your hearing. Sometimes we had to wear ear plugs and ear protection.
You will have to speak up, I’m wearing a towel?
This is great. Had no idea. Will do research
Luke Strasser you watch this channel too luke
@@fredorico41 sir do not mock my headdress it's called a turban
That Tractor looks like a mod vehicle for Snowrunner.
Mark V Did you scope out his shirts?
Wow, that sound is unforgettable. John Huffine used to pull an Oliver 99 with a big chrome straight pipe. It made the crowd go wild.
John was a great guy. I should have bought his Super 99 at his auction.
The straight pipe sounded like the old Euclid scrapers my grandpa used to operate...
i love them things, the terrix ones are super nice too
I think the older ones had 4/71 later they got into the 6s and even 12s if I'm not mistaken. The weirdest/coolist thing Euclid ever made was the twin engine dozer. It had 2 6/71s and pivoted in the center for better traction. Kinda s cool idea.
We use Euclid mill dump trucks at the steel mill I work at, I love how they sound.....supercharged v8’s
It's always amazed me how a Detroit at 2000 rpm sounds like it's at 10000 rpm, I comprehend the mechanics of it but it's still odd, that would take some getting used to
It fires on each top dead center. instead of every 3rd stroke like 4 stroke.
That straight pipe made all the birds leave my bird feeder.
Implements: it's been a long day
Oliver: nice of you to join me, how long have you been back there? I had no idea!
I love Herman! I especially like the patina! A new paint job wouldn't do him justice.
wonderful music to my hears
we have the same tractor out at the farm we never wore hearing protection we ran it with straight pipe once before were the glass in the cab quivered I love that scream of GM Detroit
Oh my goodness that thing sounds awesome! Someday I’m gonna build a street rod with a 2 stroke Detroit in it. I love that sound!
I've seen some pickups with the same engine they are sweet.
3-53, 4-53 will fit nicely into an engine bay previously home to a smallblock V8. Just sayin'
@@TestECull I got a three-quarter ton 2 wheel drive Dodge that's got at 4:53 and it with a five-speed it screams
Hello Chris,
Thank you for your time and effort to conduct such an experiment. The sound of the 2 stroke GM's was unbelievable. I can still remember the first time I heard such a beautiful sound. It was a Terex scraper running two. My vote is for the straight pipe it really let her speak! Of course good ear protection is a must,
God Bless, Boe
I still use my 1955, the waukesha was blown, replaced with Perkins from white combine. I still like seeing the other green tractors.
Nice video awesome straight pipe
WOW that sounded good straight piped !!!
I knew when you said that you would put on a straight pipe , they,d get a ear full. GM engines were always Loud no matter what. My neighbor had oliver with GM engine 4 ft chrome pipe could hear him for couple miles working . Olivers were built so well , that is why they are still going strong, ones taken care of, maintained etc. Our family had a Oliver / White Farm dealership 25 yrs. I still have a older 550 with several factory attachments .Oliver will remain my tractor of choice forever. Enjoy your channel.
Thanks!
Straight pipes and hearing protection is the way to go
Man I love them old Detroit's
Herman is by far the star of your channel, as well as my favorite. thanks for posting all that wonderful DETROIT noise.
After working at a Detroit 2 stroke rebuilder for many years ( where we always test ran rebuilds ) , they all sound sweet ( what I can hear , that is ) !
I was raised on a Deere on a late model 4020. But Oliver has a soft spot in my heart as being the other favorite green of mine
Straight pipe sound cool would definitely wake neighborhood up! Neighbor has a 4030 John Deere non turbo 329 6 cylinder that had a straight pipe. Sounded like a monster truck!
I drove a 318 powered Autocar 8 axle combination bringing a crawler crane home to Philly back in the 80's. About 1/2 way through Ohio the exhaust broke before the muffler. It was bad enough at first, but those Western Pa. hills made it ungodly loud, down in the low gears going like 5 MPH with that 318 screaming. My ears rang for about a week after I got home. We had a 16v92 generator on a jobsite one time and even with hearing protection on it was damn loud. If you got like within 50 feet of it you could feel it with your whole body and your teeth felt itchy
Love that tractor and the straight pipe sounds cool but if I was running it for more than a few minutes....I’d probably use muffler #2....it has a nice sound
Old herman barks with that straight pipe ! Good video chris...
Chris - Not sure if your interested in a collaboration but another YT channel, Cole the Cornstar, is planning to do a rehab of their Oliver 1950. Apparently the problem is that diesel is getting into the oil. I'm guessing it's the injectors that are bad but who knows for sure. It's Cole's brother, sorry can't remember his name, that will be wrenching on tractor.
I wouldn't be against that but they're out in Iowa and I'm in Michigan. Last time I saw them mention the 1950, they were talking about selling it, must be they changed their minds. Cooper is the brother's name if I remember correctly.
Ole Herman seems to enjoy pulling the disc and packer, He moves right along.
Love the sound of the old two strokes. Especially with a straight piped one
Great sound and those tires look awesome. Years ago I run white freight liners road tractors with v12's and heavy equipment with 6's try running 8 hours a day listening to that OUCH!!!
Beautiful sound!! Love Detroits. And in a tractor is even better!! Thank you ❤
Thank you for watching!
Awesome video!!! Love the sound of the strait pipe.
👍👌🇨🇦❤, couldn't miss a day without Herman, loud and gettin' the job done
Growing up on our farm in the 1960's, you could easily tell from half a mile away when our neighbor took his 1950 out to the field .
I love the straight pipe but it would be to much for hours on end in the field.
Agreed. I save the straight pipe for parades and shows.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris 🤣🤣🤣
To me the stock muffler sounds best at WOT. Low to mid range, straight pipe all the way. Can't beat that Detroit diesel sound!
Straight pipe sounds awesome!
even got the crocks in 4x4 good job man. I'm a John Deere guy myself but that tractor sounds amazing
Put the Power where it needs to be it's on the ground
Detroit Allison had built those Motors for Oliver
Herman is a beast. That tractor give a good name to a beast
That strait pipe sounded amazing I’m not really a strait pipe kind of person but that Detroit diesel sound amazing especially when at idle. But I would put a muffler on while working but if I took it to a show put the straight pipe on
Herman sounds ANGRY with that straight pipe on em but it’s a good kind of angry!
Let it breathe, brother, let it breathe. Straight pipe all the way.
First time I took the 4-115 out to plow, I stopped at the AGCO dealer and bought the Stanley muffler they had on the shelf since the mid 90s. Stuck it on and sent to the field. Ended up having enough back pressure to blow the muffler off and onto the ground
I was teetering on that.
My dad had a 1900. It was our favorite tractor for fitting plowed sod. It was the smoothest riding tractor, way better than the IH 1486 or 806. It pulled our 21' field cultivator as good as the 1486.
Hi Chris, My dad had a Oliver 525 combine with a two roll corn head. It had I believe a flat head 6 motor. He had that for some years and traded it in for a 7300. It had a Chrysler gas engine. Not sure if it was a straight 6 or V8. Maybe a V8. He had that for many many years. He started with a 4 roll corn head then he switch to a 6 roll corn head that fit the same size rows as the 4. I was in the service when he traded it off for a New Holland. That 525 and 7300 were excellent combines. Small but dependable. I sure like the sound of the straight pipe on Herman. Sure enjoy your video's. Brings back memories.
I've got a 525 with a Chrysler straight 6. I think the 7300 used the 318 V8. We had a red 7300 with the Perkins 354 when I was a very young. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Herman sounds great with that straight pipe!
What a beautiful tractor that is! It has two of my favorite things... Oliver and an old 2 stoke Detriot! They love riding the governor producing the most power there so they make perfect machinery engines. My grandfather had 8 Olivers at one time, bought new back in the day. we still have a 1955 Super 55 and 1959 770 today. Still running well. They don't make old iron like this any more.
Herman always seems to dry a crowd. He is like the cool guy at the party everyone wants to hang around! Just a heads up I think we finally found a new haying tractor. You'll see it when Paul finally gets caught up with his videos. It is a NH TM 125. It is a early 2000's model with electronic power shift. A retired guy from the area traded it in because he only used it about 2 hours a year! He put brand new tires on it 2 years ago. It has a quick tach loader with it as well. I think we'll keep the loader because it would be nice to have a backup loader tractor. We are gonna give it a try on the disc bine this weekend if all goes well with it I think we will keep it. So far with the jobs I've done with it I really like it.
Cool! A backup loader is always a good thing to have, especially on a dairy farm. Looking forward to seeing it!
Love the sounds of straight pipe, prefer muffler 2 for daily work.
Haha this is gonna be a popular video! He sounds pretty mean with that straight pipe. I just ran the rack on a 4-53 last week I was thinking about your Oliver. Have a good week Chris great video
Thanks Chris nice work 👍
ah, the sweet sound of a straight piped detroit at work.
You're welcome!
Great camera work Jeff!
@@lukestrasser thank you!
You know, I think I may have heard Herman out here in Central Ohio when you put on that straight pipe. Years ago I had A GMC dump truck with a 671 Detroit, good old engine.
Every other brand of engine that sounds like that: Black smoke flying, rods knocking, farmer frantically trying to stuff a board over the intake to shut er down.
Detroit: Just another day on the job.
The straight pipe sounds awesome
The muffler off the 2050 gave it a throatier sound than it's own muffler, but not as much as the straight pipe. So the 2050 muffler is my favorite but Herman is your tractor.
Dad had the David Brown 990 converted to an underslung exhaust and used the old muffler. It now has a slightly deeper voice and is slightly quieter.
I do like the sound of the Stanley on the 2050, probably because it gives it that deep sound.
We had our ford 9700 cab straight piped and a John Deere 8410 and I tell you what your Oliver sounds badass
Neighbor has a 1950 with the Detroit. The motor is loud no matter what you put on it, so he has a 5” chrome straight on it.
Yup, it's a Detroit!
Maybe could have noticed a difference with the sound meter if you put it farther away.. wouldn't be accurate, but you would know which one was loudest..
That was some SMOOTH four wheeler video!!!
Good idea, Ed. I need to put you on speed dial.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris LOL.. you knew it, you just didn't think about it 😎😁
this sounds so sweet to me.. but I grew up running 6-71 and 8-71 Detroit ..
That straight pipe sounds sweet like a stock car! 😂 haha. Really Loud!!!!
Detroit= wide open or nothin!
True that, they don't like to lug down.
I drove a Chamberlain super 90 when I was a teenager, couldn't hear for days afterwards.
You gotta drive them like that, Detroit’s make power up top that’s why it’s go or blow
Don’t seem to matter you never seem to mask the sound of a Detroit lol. I always had ear plugs when I drove our 1950 growing up!
they really scream with a straight pipe. i would like to see a 212 cubic inch 4 stroke diesel pull that load
The ones saying its too loud are the ones that hate Harley`s. Rec BAFX Products DB meter Amazon $17.99. Bought one to check my air horns on my 73 Dodge Power Wagon. 129DB highest db. My straight pipes 110db. I doubt Herman is much more than 100db. I too tried three iphone meters.
No good. You have a simple, everyday site. Congrats. Keep it up and get more subscribers. We senior citizens from farm country love to remember.
That's the meter I have on order. I'm betting the straight pipe is up around 120db. We'll know soon.
I like the straight pipe too. Should be chrome. A 1950 Detroit is never going to be quiet anyway so go for in your face. Loud n proud!
Ace :o) the last one sounds like the terex motorscrapers that every U.K. power station had :D
Charles "Boss Man" Kettering would be proud!
I live in southern Michigan, and when you get to the east side of the state there are so many things with the Kettering name on them. Schools, colleges... he sure had an impact.
He's a beauty. Detroit's are the funniest noise makers out there.
Is it a 3 or 4x53?
4-53
We have a couple at work in old Taylor container lifts. No one is sure of the year they were old 20 yrs ago when we got them.
I have a suggestion, any configuration of exhaust I guarantee you will wear hearing protection, so why not hook it up to the dyno and see which if any of the exhausts makes the most power. Sound is fine but I’d shoot toward a power gain.
That's a good idea. I've ordered a decibel meter, so I can check that at the same time. Thanks!
It makes Herman look different at a ways off because of the straight pipe sound.
herman seamed to do better with the straight pipe when you would drop the disk in the ground or up shift the over under it seamed like there was less bog down till it got to its happy spot on rpm's
Man this is straight up tractor porn. Dang I love it.
You can't make a Detroit engine quite.but you just can't beat the sound of them old Detroit engines.
Just gear up and throttle back. Herman can handle it. It saves fuel and your hearing. Also, a little chrome is in order. I'm sure Herman will appreciate it.
Without doubt Herman is a fantastic piece of kit and I wish he was mine. However, that noise is enough to make your ears bleed, I had to fast forward to the end, sorry. Herman gets a 👍 though.
May your ears Rest In Peace
Makes me miss helping on afarm most of tractor I ran did not have mufflers on them.
I've seen her grab a couple more gears out on the road but didn't realize she could under the disk load.
It has a 2 speed shift on the go auxiliary transmission.
I think your neighbors 2 county's over can hear you. 🤣🤣🤣
Seriously though, Herman sounds awesome!
Good morning love it
Straight pipe all day
I like herman .will nice tractor an. Awesome video.
Thanks!
Some of the portable rock crushers I have seen used this engine the operators would run the exhaust into a 55 gallon barrel of water even then up close they were loud but the sound didn't travel for miles.
Oh gosh! U rev'ed that straight pipe and it made me so glad I'm not ur neighbor. Hahaha! I bet that was beating through the walls of the house a mile away.
Keep the straight pipe, that thing sounds mean.
The camera mic was really struggling to handle that straight pipe. Lol. Back in the 70s one farm to the south west of us had a 1950 and another farm to the south east had 2 5020’s with Kinze 318 repowers in them. All the neighbors say you always knew which one was working ground by which direction the sound was coming from. Dad said on a calm night that sound would easily carry 5-6 miles. Wish I could have been around back then. Like Blain told me when I went out and looked at that 8700, that was back when everyone got along and there was enough to go around.
I was impressed how well the gopro handled the sound level, the biggest thing is it adjusted the gain so that the quality was still there, but the difference in volume is gone. My would have sounded like it was under water. Lol
I agree with Blane, and in many ways us farmers are our own worst enemies. We are working our butts off, so we get bigger equipment to get the job done quicker. Well, now we have extra time on our hands, we can take on an extra 40, 50, 100, you name it acres. Then we're working 20 hours a day again, time for even bigger equipment. We force ourselves with our competitive nature to be bigger than the next guy down the road when we were making a good living at the size we were. When it comes to our food supply, bigger isn't always better, as the meat packers are showing us now.
Remember your intake and exhaust Manifold Transmission Thresholds
The straight pipe. Let me sign you the song of my people. Worked on a farm that that had a 1950 with a 4-53 and a straight pipe. He used to run it on the feed grinder so listing to a straight piped 4-53 is not un common to me. We also had a silage cutter that had a straight piped 6-71 that was fabricated into it in place of a GM 351ci V6 gas engine.
A 6-71 must have roared. My 3-71s are loud with a straight pipe, but it's a deeper tone that the 4-53.
Straight pipes with the earmufs is the way to go!
Sounded great the staight pipe would make my ears ring 👍👍
Love the sound of that screamin Jimmy!
Every one of your neighbors heard it in a 5 mile radius! I'm sure it helps with social distancing! In cities it would disburse riots. All good comes from straight piped Detroits.
👍👍👍👍
Straight piped our 6V92 with 5in stack. It rattles your body and your organs inside your body. It's great 😂
Straight pipe sounds great however I couldn't stand running it very long !
i thought it was insanely loud with muffler....straight pipe proved it could be worse !
lol
did the neighbors file a noise complaint yet?
In my opinion, the Stanley and Straight pipe sound the best. The Stanley is somewhat quiet like the original but more Throaty & Deep.
Very good
It sounds like it likes the straight pipe the most! xD
I was not ready for the straight pipe that sounded amazing but would be too much to run all day being that loud but that thing barks!
*throws on straight pipe* "AND NOW WE'RE FARMING IN MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE!!!"
