The owner's wife (girlfriend?) and I chatted a while at a show. She said they've driven it all over Florida from the pan handle to Miami for car shows. Never trailered it anywhere. It ran a lot quieter than I'd expected.
More durable engines. Compare a 4-53t to a 6bt Cummins. The Cummins is 6 cylinder and just under 1000lbs. The Detroit is 1300lbs much bigger parts too and just Beefier. You can’t hurt one, plus it sounds way better and is much louder.
+K.D. Pearce That tank in the back ain't diesel bro....full of water....there's a hose in the cab and the driver squirts water over the engine when he's doin' burnouts. True, I've spoken with the owner.
turbo queiten down a bit,the main screaming you hear on these engines is the strait cut rotors in the supercharger,they twisted the rotrs in later engines to make them quieter
I'm starting a project with a 653V Detroit and no one seems to know a number for a turbo or size of a turbo wanted to know if you have part numbers or companies etc that I can contact for that turbo
It doesn't take much to cool a diesel. I had a switch on the dash to turn the fan on and off and only used the fan in stop and go traffic. On the highway I didn't use the fan.
A V6 53 Detroit diesel... The motor alone.. Dry weighs about 1800 pound... Before you add any accessories... Such as radiator,, Alternator, Battery And who knows What else.. By the time you add everything you will be well. Over a 2,000 lbs..... On the front axle...7
Not an antique engine! The 2 stroke GM/Detroits started just before WW11 and the V configuration even later. Some whippersnappers consider 1938 as antique but come on, those engines are still in use in many trucks today!
***** Given your name, I'm sure you understand how a turbo works, and that the heat from the exhaust side will transfer to the intake side, heating the air that comes into the turbo, an intercooler would lower the temperature, allowing for more compression, bigger boost, and a cooler combustion, all of which result in more power. Is it needed? No, probably not. Rarely is more power actually "Needed", particularly in a rat rod that has no use other than having fun it it.
***** Even someone with the most basic knowledge of physics can tell you that what you're saying is mostly bullshit. Perhaps bigger boost was the wrong thing to say because in terms of how much room the same volume of air would take at a lower temperature would indeed be less. But lets use simply physics. What happens when you have two pieces of material, in this case, lets use steel. They are side by side, touching. One is hot, one is room temperature. The cooler piece will act as a heat sink. The induction will continue until they are at equal temperature. Now, you're constantly adding heat to the exhaust side, thus the intake side will continue to climb in temperature as well. Common sense would tell you that. Granted, if you're not running the engine hard enough long enough to raise that temperature high enough, it may not make a difference. Now what happens when a gas, or for that case, most materials are cooled? Molecules expand when heated, so with that knowledge, they will compress when cooled. If you're pushing 400CFM of air through an engine, 400CFM of cool air will be quite a bit more than 400CFM of hot air. So, again, tell me where I'm wrong about the heat transfer and the compression?
***** I'm not going to dispute that compression causes heat, but the very common problem with a turbo is the heat transfer from the exhaust side. That's why intercoolers were designed in the first place. Go ahead and argue that point and show how fucking stupid you are.
***** Everything you say from here on out is invalid. I have a 2002 dodge cummins WITH an OIL intercooler. I have both dyno numbers I was pushing 217 BHP with 410 F/LB after adding an intercooler, it was up to 235 with 460. So continue to spew your bullshit. Let the real car owners and builders appreciate a truly unique hot rod. P.S. It wouldn't have mattered anyway, this is clearly a 2-stroke diesel, supercharging is needed on these because they have HALF the RPM band to work with. Intercoolers are not NEEDED in a diesel, as they are COMPRESSED IGNITION rather than INTERNAL COMBUSTION. (i.e. the motor is powered by its own compressions.) Intercoolers are actually bad for diesels because the denser are can ignite under pressure more easily, or pre-detonate in the cylinder. However, they do cool the oil temperature in the turbine itself, thus allow longer periods with more boost. So please, as your ignorant, self-appointed name indicates, Turbo out of here.
***** Dude, just shut the fuck up.I work in a diesel performance shop, and showed your idiotic comments to my boss. We laughed. So please explain again how your right and not just another fucking troll. Oh and BTW, my truck is tuned perfectly. AN no if you knew anything about diesels at all you;d realize I'm correct. Do your research before your diarrhea of the mouth infects everyone else. "they are COMPRESSED IGNITION rather than INTERNAL COMBUSTION." AHHAHAHAHAAHHA! So, since you think diesels are not INTERNAL combustion, that means they are EXTERNAL combustion (like steam engines)? Where does your engine burn its fuel? Compression is the type of IGNITION source, like "spark" or "hot bulb". Yes which means they hit their flash point at pretty damn close to TDC. Now what do you suppose happens to a diesel then it detonates before TDC? Oh i don't know its just like running gasoline, It pre-ignites causing "pinging", enough of this will bend a piston rod and eventually will send it through your oil pan.
I have a 48 GM Greyhound bus with a 671 Detroit and they get 3-4 mpg around town and around 12 mpg on the road....But they weigh around 23,000 lbs. so he can probably get 25-30 mpg all day long weighing in around 3000-4000 lbs.
ANTIQUE? What have you been smoking? There are STILL plenty of two stroke Detroit Diesels on the road.I"m one of VERY few who work on these engines! antique.........yeah right!
For sure, we still use several Terex Dozers, loaders and pans that have these big Detroit’s powering them, I can listen to the exhaust rip all day long
No not many left of the road anymore, still see the in cranes and boats but very few on the road. Now days you see a lot of Detroit series 60 and DD series.
Looks more to me like a ‘N’ motor with a turbo installed. A turbo motor blower inlet would be the same size as the turbo outlet. And the outlet/inlet would be facing each other, hooked together with one short hose.
The turbo is really not needed that 53 has enough torque to rip those tires off the rims by itself. Must be a bitch seeing over it! But it’s really awesome.
+Serge Smith So you say,I think this is an out of the box type of build. The T bucket was his late fathers which was falling apart and Mike rebuilt it fro the ground up. He's a whiz with a wrench and I think youjust are jealous.
6V53, great mill for a hotrod, it's got SCREAMIN' gobs of low end torques, sounds great and VERY easy to work on
That’s the coolest Street Rod I have ever seen! I’ll bet it rides real nice with that Beast of a Motor!
The owner's wife (girlfriend?) and I chatted a while at a show. She said they've driven it all over Florida from the pan handle to Miami for car shows. Never trailered it anywhere. It ran a lot quieter than I'd expected.
Hey neat, a Detroit with a car mounted on it!
😅😂🤣🤘
perfect .. nice engine sound .. i was driver truck and i love the diesel engines .. pure power .
cheers
Glad you enjoyed it
That's just sick and unnecessary. I love it!
DD. The sound of victory. GMC#1
That has a very smooth sound to it for a Diesel. Awesome ride.
Better than any cummins swap.
Why?
Better? Cheaper 4sure. Probably put it on scale and bought it per pound.

Those sound way nicer with a turbo behind, really quiet's it down and makes the motor even more enjoyable.
There's a turbo on it...
@@Icutmetal um, I’m pretty sure he is aware of that, I mean that IS Exactly what he was talking about
I disagree
A Ford guy trying to fix a GM diesel. Lmao. This isn't your dad's 7.3 Navistar.
Very smooth runner, well done!
You gotta love that 2-stroke growl!
Now it needs a Kahlenberg air horn like what you hear at a hockey game!
6v53, that's a cool rig. I need to see that thing in action
It can be found at many Central Florida car shows.
You won't see it in action, with that tiny radiator that Detroit won't stay cool for long.
The owner drives it to and from car shows all over central Florida in the summer. Appears it's enough for him.

Really like that never thought about that looks good sounds good
That is one sweet machine, There is nothing like the sound of the screaming demon! God bless!
Finally, a good application for the Green Weinie!
Respect.....I wouldnt yawn walking past thing.
So ridiculous!
I love it!
turbo queiten down a bit,the main screaming you hear on these engines is the strait cut rotors in the supercharger,they twisted the rotrs in later engines to make them quieter
Sounds just like the engine that was in my APC in the Army.
Wow, I tip my hat to this guy.
this is cool!
and when i mean cool, i mean lock your garage at night lol
Utterly badass bro!
Uuffff 💯

Such a madness!...
Pure awesome!
Glad you like it.
I'm starting a project with a 653V Detroit and no one seems to know a number for a turbo or size of a turbo wanted to know if you have part numbers or companies etc that I can contact for that turbo
how do you see the road through that massive turbo
I believe the owner said he leaned to the left. 🥺
@@Hawk1966 haha that hilarious / awesome
Dude even has the rack set right lol
From what I've heard in years past the guy who built this was a diesel mechanic for 20-30 years before he retired and then built this.
Transmission?
Raise the suspension and get some mud tires on it and I bet that would be a killer rock crawler. All of the power, none of the calories.
Two wheel drive crawler? 😂
Would've been nice to see it drive.
Nice rat all the same.
Heu dude you couldn't figure out anyother place to locate the Turbo so you put it in the Stock location?
Sweet !
I wonder what drive train he ran off of the back of that 6V53T .
+Ignignokt Mooninite For a start there's the 21 speed Road Ranger gearbox....
Herman Munster approves!
How can it hold the weight? It's just a litte T bucket
No idea, not my ride. I just shot the video.
Would only need one, Very high gear.
I wonder how much mpg that one gets. A big motor like that on a lighter frame would have to have decent mpg.
I would say around 20-25 hell maybe even 30
It would be more like smiles per mile.
It's a Detroit, fuel & oil consumption is high.
@@toddgittins5692 not huge displacement though. But you are right
So Nice!!!
you did not have to cut the fire wall or floor?
Not mine. I know nothing about the construction of the ride. Sorry.

Nah that thing would suck that right right inside. We always kept a 12” long 2x6 board handy in all the old Terex loaders, Dozers and Pans we had.
Love it
Should put an intercooler on it, so the power build by that turbo isn't wasted.
