Re: Heavy Machines powered by GM diesels or Detroits
Great sounding Detroit. Believe it's a 3-53.
My neighbor has one like it. When he's logging out in the neighborhood, he plays that music all day, lol.

Re: Heavy Machines powered by GM diesels or Detroits
That's what I was guessing. I just had this one pop up. Little old Oliver 4wd. This video was made for this thread. I didn't see mention of which motor. What do you think?

Re: Heavy Machines powered by GM diesels or Detroits
I agree. It even sounds like a 4-53.
Interesting tractor.

Re: Heavy Machines powered by GM diesels or Detroits
Thought I'd bring this back to the top with a photo that somebody had taken at the Mecum Auction Inspection day in Davenport Iowa I believe. I belong to a John Deere collectors group and they mentioned that this old girl is one of the featured items at the auction. The John Deere 8020 powered by a Detroit 671E. As stated before they never sold well when they were new but, they command almost a king's Ransom today. They sell for about 150k to 175k today.

That John Deere 8020 with the Detroit Diesel just broke the record price of all time for any John Deere 8020 it sold for $350,000 with a 5% buyer's fee comes out to $367,500

Re: Heavy Machines powered by GM diesels or Detroits
How about the Detroit's themselves? Here's a setup called the quad that Detroit had back in the day consisting of 4 6-71s put together. I Heard that they were mostly used for marine applications. A Detroit generator and, a 12V-71N on display back in the day.
