  • WOW thats bad ass!!!!!!!!!

  • How did you make it fit & compensate for the weight?

  • Comment removed

  • I am listing some 53 series jakes on ebay sunday night.

  • Couple questions... How well did the IFS handle the engine weight and other than cowl hood and body lift what had to happen to get the engine tucked in there?

  • i watch this a couple times a week it makes me smile

  • OH MY GOD I WANT THIS TRUCK!!!!!

  • Sweet!

  • Stick shift would sound so much cooler.

  • what transmission do you have in it 

  • @12valvepower1 : Allison 4 speed.

  • 6 litres roughly yes.

  • was there enough room in the engine bay, you probably had to do some rearranging but i was wondering how much because i dont know weather i should put a 6v53t in a 78 ford f350 or an 80's model chevy?

  • Damn i love the sound of that Truck so bad! with the auto-tranny it sounds bad-ass too without loosing Boost!

  • Nathan you have the best sounding truck ever.. I love GM and Detroit Diesel it is such a beautiful mix. I enjoyed your video and watched it like 10 times in a row. Did you build this truck your self? When i move out to the country side you can bet i will be building a truck like this. I have seen Detroit Diesel engines in Truck's before but with a automatic? never. Is it a manual trans with some automatic actuators sitting on top of the transmission plate? how does it work. Well great job buddy!

  • is it an Allison automatic tranny?

  • How was this truck on fuel?

    

  • Best sounding truck... ever :)

  • to everyone on youtube filps are junk oldladys cousin had one let a friend use it and she droped it in and parkin lot...all kinds of fucked up it wasint like they abused it or beat on it just droped it ive droped my ipod my phone my camara they didnt break...dont buy flips!

  • what wheels and flatbed are on her?

  • Wow! That is just too cool!! Too bad there aren't more diesel powered trucks in this country. Everyone is obsessed with big block V-8 and getting no MPGs.

  • @NJStormSpotter

    In America?

  • Comment removed

  • Man what a sweet rig. Nicely done

  • ok thanks

  • mind if I ask were you found the engine I am in the market for one

  • @squirrelcurtis This is a friend of mines truck. He told me that he got it from a guy that was into tractor pulling. I think it was originally a military application.

  • @Nathansfarm you can look up oshkosh they have alot of them in there old military applications for the 90's but not sure if they sell just motors

  • @Nathansfarm That's fuckin cool man

  • my email is yamaha125biker@yahoo.com

  • are you still selling the truck

    

  • @wemoy it is sold

  • @Nathansfarm Just wondering how much did the truck sell for?

  • Just fits LOL

  • nice

  • i wish i didn't live so far from this sweeeeet pickup, nice job looks and sounds great

  • parden my lang but holy shit that is the baddest truck i have ever seen.. supercharged turbo diesel is the way to go

  • Jiz at 3:10

  • What model Allison does it have?

  • Auto detroit - sounds great, you only see a few old busses around here these days.

  • what transmission is it and how many gears

  • That's so fucking awesome. Everything about it.

  • Im lookin for a chevy Diesel with power but i llike the old style body

    

  • @whiteorc3 what bodystyle?

  • How is the power down the i mean torque wise?

  • that is a nice truck man, if you get the rear wheels to match the fronts it will really make it stand out. =)

  • SO DAM COOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i want this in my van...detroits old 379 is great,but this would make so much more power,not to mention the goosebumps from driving it.

    

  • what is the clicking noise associated with these engines? The only time that I have ever heard anything like it would be when the cam bearings were going out on a gas motor.

  • @ucf08 injectors

  • injection

  • Gosh I wish I still worked there, reminds me of engine test at Redford.

  • Absolutely gorgeous engine. Only Chevy/GM I'd ever think about owning.

  • I noticed the turbo on the pass. side there, did you get a turbo engine, or find a turbo after and put it on?

  • @PITBULL35383 What computer do you have. I have a TCI unit. I was runnig a TPS from a 92 5.7L TBI untill I blew the tranny case apart. Never had an Issue with the sensor.

  • beautifull truck, you did a great Job building that thing!!

  • sweet

  • is this a five speed allison auto????

  • @AussieDusty sounds like a 4 speed at545

  • one person likes Japanese Rice

  • would you ever build one for a customer??

  • a john deere tool box for the guy,oh it must indestructible

  • alot of noise thats all pos

  • many of the videos of detroit diesels are in the same old trucks. Why is that, are they built with a heavier suspension then others?

  • Jesus Christ! what hell i would spread through the night in this town with a truck that sounded like that! :D

  • Great video. I would love to see more of this truck.

  • two stroke Diesel!?

  • Too bad a 653 won't fit in my Safari... :(

  • @Mysterio2276 a 6V53 will fit in ANYTHING. Trust me.

  • @whitscot - The 4.3L V6 is crammed in my Safari van so tight I can barely see the engine, I doubt a 5.2L diesel will fit in there.. :(

  • that would be a perfect truck to pull truck for a parade!

  • 1 person must hate the sound of a detroit

  • @RockinGuy1994 I think youtube put the like and dislike buttons too close together.

  • @whitscot I hear ya

  • That thing is awesome!!!!

  • OH MY GOD. This is the BEST detroit swapped truck I have ever seen!!!! where is it located? I would buy it in a heartbeat!!!!

  • i wish chevy would make standard pickups like yours

  • Best Damn pickup truck ive ever seen! I wish it was in person!

  • my dad use to have an old white constructor flatbed tandem, with a 6-71t, and 2- quad boxes, that thing was slower then heck, but you could load 80,000lbs on it and haul it screamin all day. i remeber he letting me drive it around the yard. Detroits run backwards, i found this out when somehow i stalled it cuz i didnt push in the clutch, I slammed on the air brakes, it stalled and it bucked, somehow i got it to run backwards. Smoke started poorin out the filter, an went backwards in first.

    .

  • What does this have for hp and tq?

  • A TWO-wheel-drive? Surprising. With all the work that went into doing it so well, I'd think a 4x4 would have been the final touch to make it right. Just my own opinion, of course.

  • You won't be sneaking up on anyone with this truck but it's nice anyway, nice 2 stroke sound

  • i think im in love

  • 1 mean bitch just in the process of doing one similar for aussie roads was going 4 53 now maybe 653? great truck be proud of it

  • How does the front suspension handle the weight of the engine?

  • If you make another one but with the 6v92 I'll for sure buy it!!

  • @creedmty A 6v92 (or a 6v71) would be TOO nose heavy with almost 800+lbs more weight, and although the

    71 and 92 series can live at rpms over 3000, the power to weight ratio is best with the 6v53 series.

  • Badass engine swap. That's one evil sounding pickup!

  • Still up for sale? name your price???I'll buy it.

  • @mpedward2 Truck is is still for sale. Contact Dave @ (615) 268-9322 and talk to him about it.

  • @Nathansfarm

    what transmission is in it?

  • @mpedward2 have you bought it? :(

  • screww cummins and powerstroke gimmie a detroit any day

  • @MegaSk2009 exactly 100% agree on this one

  • @MegaSk2009 cummins really? detroits are fuel guzzling, oil leaking pieces of shit...and theyre not overly powerful

  • @SuperDutyCummins well for a design that has hardly changed since 1938 between 5 series of engine's, sold more than 1.2 million, had a 50 year run, used in every application imaginable, and pretty much indestructable. i would venture to say that DD did a pretty damn good job

  • @nm9730 They merged right? thats why there are no more Detroit diesels made?

  • @PrimitiveStrikeForce no DD is still making diesels and still holds a large share of the market. they just dont make the 2 strokes anymore.

  • @MegaSk2009 too right brother

  • fuck cummins

  • is this truck still for sale? if so i am VERY interested!!!!! it would make a great little sister to my 67 brockway

  • This is probably the most badass light duty truck ever. How does the front suspension handle the weight of the engine?

  • is that really what the engine sounds like, or is it distorting the microphone? if it dose sound like that, I WANT ONE!!!!!

    

  • @ClassicCountryBoy1 What you hear in the video, is what you hear in real life, only its ten times louder in real life. They don't call 'em "Screamin' Detroits" for nothing.

  • sweet truck

  • Haha this billclintonwasdumb guy cracks me up. Try an take my 6.9 idi and I'll chain it to your balls and... Wait that won't work considering you ain't got none. Diesel all the way.

  • @PITBULL35383 the Allison 545 was a non computerized 3-spd(no overdrive) trans. I think there are others' out there, but i can't remember them all. Knew a guy with a tow truck from the 80s that had a 427 and Allison 2000 behind it.

  • very nice. turbo too. nice job! maybe ill see ya around!

  • @PITBULL35383 no way is it a 700R4. The 700R4 was garbage. I had one in my 6.2 blazer, which had much less torque than this Detroit Diesel 2 stroke in this guys truck, and it still started slipping and fell apart. I ditched it for a SM465 instead. It's probably an Allison of some kind.

  • @billclintonwasdumb, the food that come to your plate was brought by truck, this whole world could not work without diesel. Suck it up man.

  • Hey billclintonwasdum, go chain yourself to a tree in the rainforest somewhere and go on a hunger strike........so we can forget about you. This truck rocks, alot of hard work went into making that truck/motor combo work i am sure. So stick it! Very cool nathansfarm!

  • @BillClintonWasDum Why the fuck is someone like you watching this video anyway? The Marxist ideas in your head, in no way coincide with your username.

  • @BillClintonWasDum Obama isn't the answer. Obama is the problem. If you think this truck ruins the earth you should see what concrete and asphalt do to it!

  • @BillClintonWasDum yeah bud shut the hell up diesel is waaaaay cleaner burning than gasoline and this trucks a beauty. i dont like chev but if i had that truck ide put a big push bumper on it. nice truck boys. and fuck you BillClintonWasDum

  • @BillClintonWasDum and if you tried to take my truck or my gun or anything else from me without MY permission i'de give you a good ass kickin and blow a big cloud o black smoke right in front o your house. you'de have to pry my 303. from my COLD DEAD FINGERS

  • @BillClintonWasDum Are you a nigger or a pussy hippie? Oboma is already draining this country dry giving hard working americans money away to the niggers and any other free loader. If i had a time machine id send you back to early 1900s russia and youd get every thing you need to live for free but NOTHING you want for fun. Is that what you want for the USA you communist? Not me. Not to worry next election will be different. Sorry Detroit fans. This comy pissed me off. Lets talk trucks some more.

  • @BillClintonWasDum We start wars to depose retards like you.

    You're just jealous that the best thing you can ever own is a key to your parents' basement.

  • @BillClintonWasDum I should hunt you down myself and gut you like a two pound trout "for even thinking about doing any of that shit you fucking tree hugging prius driving leftist, Marxist, Socialist, douche bag..... It's people like you that are ruining our country with your thinking you know how to run my life better than I do.... FUCK OFF AND DIE

  • @BillClintonWasDum If you knew anything about anything you would know you so called green hybrid and all electric cars cause way more pollution in the end.... what do you think happens to that big pack of LEAD ACID batteries in your fucking prius when they are worn out retard and the black smoke you see here is way less harmful than the exhaust coming out of your prius so go do your home work before you start bad mouthing diesels douche bag....

  • the only thing i would change on this would be a manual tranny and nice either dually rims and tires or singles in the back just like the front. but other than that its AWSOME!

  • Still for sale?

  • BITCHIN! GREEN BELTS! LOL AWESOME TRUCK!

  • BITCHIN!

  • the automatic ruins the whole sound of the beast.

  • @TheLuke2reeve Actually I don't mind the thoughts of the auto... keeps the foot to the floor and goes like hell. I am putting a 6V53 in a F-450 and I am thinking of going with a 6 and 4 combo.

  • nice truck, sounds like a tad low geared but otherwise awesome. What state are you in?

  • I am interested in this truck but can't get your contact info please email me at bullrider1337@yahoo.com Thanks.

  • anyfuel up od/ IT DOES HAVE Mechianl fuel pump right?

  • @Nathansfarm Where is this truck for sale at? 

  • amazing truck. does it have an automatic tranny? if so, why?

  • @polish1stdivision The owner got the transmission from a friend that did a lot of tractor pulls. The transmission is built up for heavy use

  • @Nathansfarm Oh, niiiiice!! I was just thinking why for I would think manual to be more affective with a detriot diesel because you want to keep the rpm's high. suuuchh a nice truck btw.

  • @Nathansfarm If you don't mind me asking what kind of tranny is it? I'm curious. Was it direct bolt on or did you have to fabricate it?

  • @Nathansfarm Awesome truck and very origional! What kind of tranny is it? Was the engine ever dyno'ed? Moves with authority when you floor it!

  • @Nathansfarm To bad the engines not

  • THATS BADASS!!! lol

  • somebody help me out: what is the advantage of a 2stroke diesel? i thought they were for apps were power to weight matters (ie stuffing it into a pretty small vehicle)? I would think 2strokes get worse mileage and less torque than a 4stroke.

  • I love that sound at 4:35! Waht is it called when the engine makes that sound at 4:35? You should put auto meters on your truck. This engine would be so awesome in a Mercadies ISL convertable. Especially when it would make the sound at 4:35.

  • I was also wondering if the truck was still available.

  • Shot in the dark here, but is the truck still available? I was digging around on craigslist and noticed it was still listed.

  • @thegreatkingdaniel It is sold pending pickup around Oct 10. A fellow in Canada is in the process of acquiring it. Per chance that something falls through I will contact you

  • Is it just me or does that look like a H1C turbo????

  • Awesome!!

  • Awesome!!

  • @Farmal Doctor I know why You like it so much.Darryn loves the John Deere decal on both sides of the toolbox,MA HA!:)

  • Great vid!! Detroit Diesel swaps are the coolest diesel swaps around!! Love that screaming Detroit sound!!

  • The truck the engine is in is a 1981-1987 Chevrolet C30 Custom Deluxe flatbed.

  • What model Allison's in that thing?

  • This is awesome! but what are the two red buttons next to the shifter?

  • @scottums5427 maybe shitflights

  • @Bamchucknorris Kill switches. I'm guessing one for the blower and one for fuel.

  • Awesome truck!

  • This truck has an all aluminum Detroit Diesel 6V53. The owner has upgraded the fuel system, installed a turbo and other modifications, making it a truly unique truck. The automatic transmission shifts great, and man, that engine is cool.

  • that thing is awsome sounds great sounds really healty too love the sound of the 6v53 screamin thanks for posting this ur freinds truck or?

  • @Unlimited3406 This is owned by a coworker, and it is for sale.
