+Matt K I'm both a Dodge and a Ford guy, I made this account like 6 years ago lol so the name stuck. Currently I have a 1995 7.3 and I love the sound of it. A couple of my top favorite engine sounds come from a 1st Gen 12v and an OBS 7.3
Yes I mess with the smoke screw. On a truck with stock or slightly mild injectors it helps with turbo spool. On the other hand with big injectors like this truck has you actually back it up to help with low boost fuel. You can actually put to much fuel in at low rpm's with big sticks. Running lean is a gas engine term. All diesels run lean due to the intake being wide open. It does not have throttle plates or butterfly's like a gasser. You burn pistons by running to hot or by bad injectors.
I gotta 96 12 valve that sounds about as close to this as you can get, and im pretty sure these Cummins were originally supposed to run on Liberal Tears!!! 😆 Fuckin Mint! 👌
Oh man I have been looking for this video for years. I watched it a few times when I was 17. Now at 29 years old.. I found it. This video made me want a Cummins pickup.
From what i understand all the club cabs was assembled in Mexico. And all the single cabs was assembled in the USA, both of my single cabs are assembled in USA and my club cab is Mexico
I remember first seeing this video when I was a Sophomore in high school. I drive a Duramax now, and have pretty much gotten over the Cummins hype, but I still come back to this video every now and then to hear this sweet beast sing 🤙🏼
This vid brought back memerories from my early childhood because it sounded like those old dumptrucks that Me and my grandfather used to watch pass in front of their old house
Unknown 804...I do the same thing and it never gets old. There's just something about a 1st Gen with that 12V Cummins putting in work that is music to my ears.
Its on my 92 now. This truck now has a 62-71-14 High tech turbo. The updated H1C was just a small upgrade over stock. The whistle is louder. Never ran a hx35.
@@6.7ryan87 yeah but I'm only comparing sounds, I'm a cummins guy but I just love listening to diesel motors, grew up around semi trucks so it's like therapeutic for me lol
@1958johndeere620 I noticed that right away! Perfect smoke on both sides where others hit the right side slightly before! You did an amazing job...I watch this video over and over all the time!
i have a 93 Dodge Ram. I absolutely love the truck. It was my first vehicle. Still have it. When i first got it, it was straight piped, but no stacks. I had to put a muffler on it, after the state police got me lol. Virginia is so stupid.
I have a '92 2WD, I wish it was a stick, but I still love that truck. I have plans for a 4" down pipe and 5' stacks... to start. Nice truck man, keep her up
@joe23ba That depends. If its an auto then a tight converter is a good upgrade. The stock converter is pretty loose. If your going to tow heavy you can't go crazy on power. This truck basically never tows. The truck has enough power to burn the engine into the ground. The best upgrades are good air filter intake, 4 inch exhaust. Good air in, easy air out. Read some diesel truck forums and you can decide on upgrades from there.
I spent a few hours setting them up. I bought all the elbows and pipe then made these. I wanted them to look nice and be even smoke. Thats why they are fed dead center.
@Ryd3r22 Now it has a 4 inch system on it from turbo back. It has a 4 inch outlet Borge Warner charger on it then a 4 inch diamond eye system that dumps to the stacks.
i watched this video your truck has a badass exhaust also i love the 93 dodge truck make more videos please cause thats one hell of a screamin truck right there.
Its tuned pretty mild. The 6X16's have serious potential as long as you have all the the goodies to go along with it which I don't have yet. I bought big sticks so I would never have to buy another set when I upgrade other stuff. I can grow all the way to wild with them.
@DeerslayerMO15 I made the stacks. For it to sound this way, don't run a muffler. I put one on it since the video. It sounded good but drew to much attention in town barking off cars and buildings.
@50sChevyKING I don't drive any of them in the winter. All 3 are hiding from the salt. For a winter tire the firestone winterforce tires are the very best I have ever used. I have those on the wifes Jeep and also have 6 of them on the duramax ton truck that handles plowing and sanding duty.
@50sChevyKING Well, it depends. When this vid was made it had 235 85 16's on the stock steel rims. Now it has some 3rd gen rims with 285 75 17's Dura Nitro Grapplers rings a bell. Not sure without looking.
It won't ever get to hydrolock stage. I have had some get in there and freeze. I don't run the truck in the winter due to corrosion. I drilled a pinhole in the lowest bend in the exhaust. These have been uncovered for almost 20 years.
@@1958johndeere620 interesting, thanks. Do you park it inside or outside during winter? My truck sees long periods of no use while parked outside. By long periods, I mean, it’s been 2 years at this point 🤣 my chevy is a project to say the least
I will get vid of mine as I like the mount Idea. Wind noise down to nada makes it nice. My exhaust brake with the dual 7" sounds scary as hell ... Kinda like a beech ball getting stabbed.
I may be buying a first generation extended cab dually and was wondering if you can still hear the stacks good sitting in the drivers seat being that there is some extra cab there compared to the regualar cab? Im gonna put them on anyway but i just wondered what to expect as far as sound. Thanks!
Louis Puryear What size pipe are you running? If it's 3", (which I've heard, and it sounds awful) you should switch to 4" with a 5" or 6" tip and it will probably help. An auto will cause you to miss out on some of the lower RPM sound, which is the part I myself like, but then again, that's preference, as some people like the higher RPMs. If you do have 4" pipe, I'm not sure what's going on, as, to me, there is no better sound than a 98.5-02 straight-piped 24v.
hi there, just wondering if you've tryed messin with the smoke screw. Is it harm ful to the engine? I was told it could burn up a piston becasue it leans out the mixture if you turn it clockwise. Just looking for a second opinion. thanks
12 years later ..... still the best sounding cummins on TH-cam
Had it running today.
@@1958johndeere620 well give the people an update ! Lol
13 years, still king!
Yeah it is 🤘👍
Go buy a real semi and quit trying to make that tin can one
I pop in about 3-4 times a year just to watch this video and listen.
Mee too
It just doesn't get old...
Those are the best looking and sounding stacks I've seen
I'm a die hard ford guy but damn this truck sounds great
Yep same here, about once a month honestly.
Probably one of the best Cummins exhaust I've seen on TH-cam so far.
Anybody else revisit this video several times a year just to remind themselves of this heavenly sound?
Na, I just take the truck for a ride. LOL!
You damn right ✅️ 👌
301 hp and 731 torque. Its not clean, far from it. Multi colored, rusty. I built it so its my baby no matter what shape its in.
@Chuck Dodge Just the turbo.
@Chuck Dodge This was the 16cm 60mm cold H1C then.
Make them survive, I’ve a 3rd gen shit box I want to bring to glory, love old diesel trucks
This is music to my ears
Same
+Jacob Randall Same x2. The powerstroke and duramax guys can do whatever they want, but they will never come close to the awesomeness of a Cummins.

Who needs a sound system when you have stacks😍
@Phil Mccrevasse i totally agree, you can't compare a crappy honda with a beautyfull cummins,, shame you!
thumbs up if you believe that this is the best sounding cummins on youtube!
Yep about every 6 months I'll watch this video the best one ever I've got an 06 with a 59 runs like hell best ever
I gotta 96 12 valve that sounds about as close to this as you can get, and im pretty sure these Cummins were originally supposed to run on Liberal Tears!!! 😆 Fuckin Mint! 👌
sound like an old peterbilt love it!
Oh man I have been looking for this video for years. I watched it a few times when I was 17. Now at 29 years old.. I found it. This video made me want a Cummins pickup.
I still have all 3 of them.
Sounds likes a freaking big rig hell yeah brother
I come here every few weeks. This is therapy
Nothing sounds better than an old 12 valve
IDK Detroit sounds perty good too
Kevin McGann love a and old 12 valve. but detroit is a shit engine and 6.0 is the best sounding diesel
2 stroke detroit
Amen bro
Two sounds better than one hahahaha 😂
sounds like a real rig
That is exactly what I want my future truck to sound like
back when trucks where truly made in 'MERICA!
(mine was assembled in Mexico)
Actually most of these were made in Mexico
haha, yep cracked up because mine was hecho en mexico!
From what i understand all the club cabs was assembled in Mexico. And all the single cabs was assembled in the USA, both of my single cabs are assembled in USA and my club cab is Mexico
Michael Eyes actually my single cab was assembled in mexico
I've been listening to this daily it's just soothing to listen to an old twelve valve.
sounds great my friend. i love that its a manual.
I remember first seeing this video when I was a Sophomore in high school. I drive a Duramax now, and have pretty much gotten over the Cummins hype, but I still come back to this video every now and then to hear this sweet beast sing 🤙🏼
I have 2 Duramax 1tons I plow and sand with. I am not anti dmax or pwrstroke . But these 12v sound better for sure.
I dont personally like stacks but I gotta say, i do like these stacks
Makes for great "coal rolling".
This vid brought back memerories from my early childhood because it sounded like those old dumptrucks that Me and my grandfather used to watch pass in front of their old house
Sounds great my friend
Very nice even sound. 12v's are the best sounding engines they put in Dodge's, very throaty! :D
@ 2min and up is an absolute eargasm of a 4 gear pull
Best sounding gen 1 on the entirety of TH-cam!
I have a 12valve in my Land Rover defender 110 and she sounds just lovely.
Im not a big fan of diesels but there is no way I can deny that this sounds badass. Nice truck man.
Best sounding Cummins on youtube. Shit, better than any Cummins pick-up I've heard in person.
I love how this sounds so similar my mate's well built TD42 Patrol. Greetings from down under!
Those stacks looks so damn good. And sounds brutal. Great video.
How anyone can say that a duramax or powerstroke sounds better than a cummins is beyond me. GREAT sounding truck👍👍👍
Unknown 804...I do the same thing and it never gets old. There's just something about a 1st Gen with that 12V Cummins putting in work that is music to my ears.
The best souding truck on utube!
Man I have a powerstroke but that is the best sounding truck I've ever heard! Excellent video man!!!!
Dam that turbo sounds good and those pipes sets that truck off
Its on my 92 now. This truck now has a 62-71-14 High tech turbo. The updated H1C was just a small upgrade over stock. The whistle is louder. Never ran a hx35.
I like how it sounds like a n14 empty but when it's loaded it turns into an old Detroit V8
Elon "CheekyKnob" Musk here’s the difference with this and the Detroit, this makes sound and moves, the Detroit just makes sound
@@6.7ryan87 detroits actually make allot of power for there size
@@hamish2202 yeah but the big cam and the cats would put run the Detroit’s in fuel mileage and power

the perfect sound, the stacks look great
Sounds real good Richie.
Every time I watch this, the 5" turnout in my garage gets more appealing.
yes sr great job on the stacked and cool trucks to .
Made my morning on the bowl a memorable one.
that thing looks as clean as they day it rolled off the line
From a Ford guy........That was amazing sounding!
Best cummins sound on TH-cam ive heard so far
Thanks
got to love these diesels. my 89 has this set up
The last minute of this video was the best sound ive ever heard 🤤
Skip to 2:00 for the goodness 😋
This is how a diesel should sound!! So sick. I love it! it sounds so good.
I'm a Chevy guy, but I love the cummins sound. Nice truck
It sounds like a transfer truck holy shit! Liked.
I have to say that may be the best sounding rig on TH-cam!! I want that exhaust on my 01 5.9!!
Sounds amazing! Thats one of the best sounds in the world its unmistakeable the sound a a cummins
Watching this video today. I realize you driving this 93 back in 09 is the equivalent of me driving a 2008 dodge today… Holy shit we’re getting old
And when I drive it today I look like an old redneck. Chrome stacks and all. LOL!.
@@1958johndeere620 You still have it? Phenomenal. You’ve got me looking up 1st gen Cummins’ on marketplace lol
@@haroldmccarty1333 Yup, still have 3 of them. My 89,92,and this 93.

Hey man you have a real nice truck
sounds exactly like a big rig. hell yea nice truck

How do you prevent rainwater (or leaves) from filling up in the stacks and possibly hydrolocking the engine?
It won't ever get to hydrolock stage. I have had some get in there and freeze. I don't run the truck in the winter due to corrosion. I drilled a pinhole in the lowest bend in the exhaust. These have been uncovered for almost 20 years.

Nice truck. The Cummins sounds like it’s big brother 335 or 350 engines

What year did you get?
ILikeWafflz 2001 24v
Louis Puryear What do are running for exhaust? What transmission do you have?
Stock downpipe to straight pipe dumping right at the end of the cab, and its a 47re auto.
