  • Your mamas Ford Pinto is a Piece a junk last time i checked. Hell, It doesnt even have an engine in it! No wonder why that junker has no power!

  • "...yo mama ford pinto bla, bla, bla, suck my cock you dick head!!

  • watch your language little lady.

  • It's NOT running in the "Hot Rod Semi" class

    if you didn't notice.......it's running "box

    stock"....it's a working Hwy truck, with a

    stock 855 Cummins....probably an NTC 350hp...

    which would have been the common size Cummins

    for that era (early 70's) of trucks....thats

    350hp with approximately 1250-1350 ftlbs of

    torque at the flywheel from about 1200 to 1550

    rpms, and a maximum rpm of 2100 to 2150 rpms.

  • I dont' give a rat's ass, I wanted to see some smoke, obviously came out from the engine, shit! LOL!

  • not bad for a street driven tractor

  • the truck has no speed , speed is power

  • Speed may be a "sign" of horsepower...but as

    speed increases...it's also a "sign" of

    DECREASED torque at the wheels.....so to really pull "you" need Vast amounts of Both,

    horsepower AND torque output.

  • seen this truck at the 2007 walcott jamboree. they stretched they frame. was the coolest ride there. cummins power rocks.

  • o really i was gonna go there but i didnt.. that was just last weekend tho right??

  • nice truck! whats in it?

  • It's definitely a 352 series Pete....somewhere

    between a 70 & 75.

    Go "Google" "Stagecoach Pull truck at Big Iron

    Truck Pull"....it's another 352 Pete from MN

    and pulls in the "stock" class, but it's running a V12 Detroit (2 cycle).

  • its obviously not a 352h

  • Your right...in that, it is NOT an "H" series

    which is the same cab as a standard 352...But,

    it sit's higher over the frame to accomodate

    some of the larger (outside physical dementions) engines, ie: DD 12v71 & Cat 1693 &

    3408 series.

  • lol, i know, my uncle is restoring a freightshaker powerliner that came with a 12v71 detroit. did kenworth make any raised cab options like pete and freightliner?

  • Hello Again....

    Yes, they did...But, KW never ID'd them..if "you" ordered a COE with any of the

    aforementioned "Big" engines...the cab just

    came, sitting about four inches higher, but as

    far as I remember, I never ever seen any kind

    of special designation suffixes after the model no. (ie:K100 etc) like Peterbilt did with the "H" after 352 for instance.

  • how hard are trucks with these engines still in them to find?

  • Hello again...

    They're getting scarce...but, not altogether

    impossible. I know where there is a Pete. in

    ND. with a 12 in it...but, unfortunately it's

    in pretty rough shape...has an aluminum frame

    which is corroding & "flaking" pretty badly

    ..especially around all the steel bolts, and

    especially around the the rear end where the

    bogie is attached....would definitely need new

    frame rails.

  • does it have a sleeper?

  • Yes,it's a 352 COE,but, of 1974 vintage and so is Not the "H" series,the cab sits at the standard height,with the 12 under it. It's tight under there,but no clearance problems with the "dog house" because the engine is Not equipped with jakes, so does not have the "tall" rocker covers. It also it has a5x4 set of boxes, and a "deep" alumminum "headache" rack/cabinet..complete with chains, binders, straps, etc,if I remember right, it's a "Merrit"and made of "diamond deck" aluminum.
  • does it have the dual intakes and exhaust i hear is stardard for the hi-po trucks?

  • Yes...it has both. Originally, this truck

    came equipped with twin Farr type air

    filters.....but when he had the engine

    rebuilt (& "built")....they converted over to

    the "old school" (at that time) oil bath type filters.....which is what I did, also...

    when I "built" my 12's in my two ex. hood "A" model KW's....my 69 Pete (with the rare "stretched" ex. hood) already  had oil baths on it.

  • were the oil bath ones the non ram air style with the chrome covers?

  • Generally...they were...the ones on the

    COE Pete..in ND. are the "hat" style.

    The oil baths that I put on my very long nose 69 Pete, and my 78 ex. hood KW were  large capacity that I

    "borrowed" off of "no longer in use" D8

    Cat dozers, and had them Chromed and added stacks with the "ram air"

    intakes.

  • were the oil baths under the cab and out of sight?

  • PS: Above, you asked me..." how hard

    are trucks to find with these engines still

    in them? ".........were you referring to the

    DD 12v71's or the older NTC / NTA Cummins.....like the one in  the video

    above ?? Also, if you watch this video

    again....look to the right of the video,

    where the other related videos are, and scroll down to the 11th one down

    from the top...there's a red KW with a

    Canadian flag on the grill....listen to it !!

  • i was talking about the 12's. i know ntcs are easier to find then a macdonalds
