  @slash9dotnet Not too bad if the windows are up, but even a slight crack at any of the windows and it's deafening. It would be better to have it mounted under the hood, or otherwise concealed (I'd definitely blow it more) but regardless of being under the hood, under the engine, or under the ch...

  I've got three compressors set up now, all viair, 1 380, and 2 450s, with 3 manual toggle switches rather than an automatic on/shut off. Allows me to keep the air at optimal psi and allows me to turn on and off any compressor at any time. With all three compressors running, I can go from, for e...

  Always possible, but limit your psi to the rating on the tank and put a T-fitting in with a safety release valve and it shouldn't be an issue. I've experienced probably a 20-30 psi increase, possibly more, from the closed vehicle sitting in the sun, but with a proper release valve, you should be...

  @K5H13760 Sounds like a nice set-up. 9 years?! I'm sure you have some stories to tell. I haven't noticed a drop in pitch without a significant drop in pressure. I recently bought a db meter to test various sound levels at different distances and tank psi's. Always a work in progress, happy ...

EMD Bronze bell (more info than you ever wanted to know)

I really lucked out with this one! A bronze EMD locomotive bell from the mid 1950's. Right now, it's filthy dirty and old and tired, barely works...

  Hey Danwat,

  That viair 380 ran for about 20 minutes to go from 115 to 145 psi. It never shut down due to heat. About 6 months ago, I added two viar 480s, and now have manual switches to run all three compressors. I also added a five chime leslie and installed a second manual valve, but recentl...
