First start in several years, it's a new engine to me and had been sitting a long time before I got it.
It is an 8V53T even though it appears to be only an 8V53.... I removed the turbo for now but it'll go back on soon. You can look forward to a another video as a true 8V53T!

  • Thats an 8V53N

  • @LarryNewlin Actually it's an 8V53T and came that way form Detroit new. This is just a test run without the turbo installed.

  • YOU SHOULD HAVE NOT STARTED IT WITHOUT CHECKING FOR STUCK INJECTORS..

  • @buzzindozen Who told you I didn't check for stuck injectors????

    I actually unstuck a few before starting it.... Even so had an aluminum plate sitting on the engine ready to block off the blower inlet if necessary.

  • how much are you asking? and were are you located
