No offense there Mike.

If I wasn't impressed with it, I wouldn't had posted it.

Keep us posted on your progress.

I was just giving ya a little static,no biggie !!!

Glad you liked it!

Other projects have been taking priority as we speak unfortunately. Right now all my time is going to my '69 GMC Crew cab project. That one is going to be powered with a 4-53T Detroit and a Fuller 10 speed! I may have to invest in some earplugs along the way!

Also notice the complete lack of black smoke from the Detroit's in the old Dodges pulling the logs! Who says Detroit's were bad for the enviroment!!!

I hear you. I think the deal was, one day they decided to outlaw all 2-strokes from on road use. What next, chainsaws?

Those Dodges were humpin' it, weren't they. No wimpy flat and level track here. A true test to who's the top dog...dge

68panelman · 10-27-2016, 07:42 AM

Looked like fresh logs in the winner Dodge and seasoned wood in the loser rig

I think California is headed that way.. if not already..

I think there is an air quality sensor and alarm that is activated every time a 2 stroke is brought over the state line.. or chugs into port....

Ever wonder why...less 2 stroke dirt bikes.. less string trimmers.. leaf blowers.. Detroits..
You can thanks CARB..

I even remember reading an article about required "clean cam and injector" requirements on all marine Detroits.. within California use..

I just picked up a brochure for my 77 Chevrolet HV70 truck... and even though the 6V53 is listed as the first engine choice.. it also states.. "Not for sale in California"...

Here an interesting 9500. It is listed as a '66, but if that year is correct, it looks like they changed the tilt front clip on it. Good sounding 6-71 with a 10-Speed RR:

You Tube

C10 - C90 Bill · 11-14-2016, 12:48 AM

Here's a GMC 970 with a 6-71 on the back roads and streets of Germany. Not sure what Transmission he has, but it is definitely 2 sticks:

C10 - C90 Bill · 12-26-2016, 09:53 PM

Here's a nice '73 9500:

C10 - C90 Bill · 03-17-2017, 07:51 PM

Brockway with an 8V-71.

Notice that he doesn't rush his shifts and it goes nice and smooth with no grinds.

You Tube

68panelman · 03-17-2017, 08:05 PM

Thanks again Bill, love them Huskies, especially with Detroit's in em. There's another fellow further up north in NY with a Brockway running along 90, good video also.

C10 - C90 Bill · 04-17-2017, 11:04 PM

Sweet sounding 8V-71 in another Brockway.

You Tube

**special-K** · 04-18-2017, 11:59 AM

Nice. A hiway sound that takes you back to the 2-lane days.

C10 - C90 Bill · 08-11-2017, 09:35 PM

Here's a cool 4-53 ride in a '41 Dodge COE.

Has a 10-Speed Road Ranger to boot:

**special-K** · 08-12-2017, 07:19 AM

That's a sweet ole Dodge. And rare!

C10 - C90 Bill · 09-23-2017, 10:44 PM

'66 MH 9500, 8V-71, 13-Speed:

jaybatta · 10-16-2017, 12:48 AM

Would a 73 1/2 ton jimmy/blazer with a 4-53 be of interest here? I met a guy who has one he's trying to get running. Bought it for $1500 and the only thing the seller told him was it had a fuel problem. He's not a diesel guy but man, I'd love to own it. It has a ranger split shift in front of a sm465.
