    Those were good times. I worked for Carl towards the end alongside Kenny and Dan. Carl was a master of many things but reading a pattern on differential gears would blow your mind. Luckily, I learned all I could in the couple years working at Carl’s 4x4, the sticker is still on my tool box. Thanks for throwing this video up. 👍🏻

      Personally, I've always Disliked the sound of either the Series 71 or the 92 V8's... with the center outlet exhaust manifolds... very "tinny" sounding, compared to most all of our other exhaust manifold designs.

      @@4sl648..... Thank you for your reply. True, due to two (6, counting 4 for Marine apps.) different compression ratios... but the shape / design, and exhaust port outlet location, makes the biggest difference. Rear mounted turbocharged engines (DD) sound nearly as deep (Series 92) as a NA engine with side ports at the rear.
      Series 92 engines using the Volute design manifolds on the Turbocharged version, can be flipped upside down and reversed from to opposite sides on either series of NA engines, and sound deep and throaty as well.... depending on rotation and firing order.
      Back in the 1970's, International Trucks ordered Center outlet manifolds for all our NA V8 engines, for use in their COE 4070A Transtars.... Why?, I don't know... they were the Only manufacturer of Class 8 trucks to do so... and I never like the sound of them, either... very "tinny", especially with the series 71 at the time.
      It's also interesting though, that IH did Not order Center Outlets for the COE 7090 Series, which had our V12 in them as an option, and all NA and at reduced power levels, either 390hp or 434hp with green tag N55 and N60 injectors.
      What they did, do wrong though... was installed a Single 6" diameter intake system, from the inlet at the top of the cab... all the way to both scavenging blowers, and to top that design flaw, off.... they installed a 4" exhaust system with very restrictive mufflers (they did, at least.. use a dual setup) that would have been much more suited to a an old "J" Series Cummins or a 180hp NHC Cummins.
      Owner operators (and small fleet owners) were bad mouthing the V12 for burnt valves in as little as 35K miles.... it wasn't the engine, it was IH and their very poorly designed Intake and Exhaust systems for the 12.

    In 1976 Slagle brought his 53 Series to the tractor pull in Redding Ca. I was repairing a truck at the Cottonwood scales and Slagel went through the scales with his "bat wing" KW custom Cummins and twin sticks. He made his speed up and exit sound like a well oiled sewing machine. A perfect marriage of man and machine, so smooth.

I remember Carl after breaking an axle in the dark,on the Oregon coast dunes limping back to camp and the next morning he walked around the campground looking for a suitable donor vehicle and talking the owner of that Bronco into loaning him an axle so he could run the dunes one more day! You just could not say no to Carl. RIP

      Optimal air/fuel ratio for a diesel 16:1 air to fuel. It starts to produce smoke at 18:1 ratio. To get max power there is going to be smoke. Diesels aren't really tuned by air to fuel ratio. Nitrous will clean the smoke up but no smoke means you can probably add more fuel.

    30 years ago they told me it was the worlds fastest manure spreader, but one of the crew laughed and said it had been a logtruck. One if the last civilian trucks made before the shift to war production. Two turbos each side, feeding two superchargers down the center (just like his puller trucks), had trouble doing much over 200 without the tires shredding themselves, looks like they have better ones now!

Then, who was it that had the K7 International with the V12 mounted "mid-ship", back in the 1960's/70's?? Any idea, at all? I thought it was Bob Slagle, and that it "evolved" from there to what it is now, over the years. No? Is the 16, a series71 or 92 ??

      @@andyharman3022.... that is a nice Dream, but in real time practicality... a 20 cylinder 149 would Crush the "Pheonix" in both, outer physical size and the sheer weight of it. Also, Stewart & Stevenson only built a very limited number of them for us. The radiator alone, that is required for sufficient cooling, is far larger than Carl's truck is.

      @@CodyHeap480.... My mistake, I re-watched the video... I had somehow missed where the total displacement (1472ci) was mentioned. Of course it's not really a V12 (only the Series 71 - V12 was actually "clean sheeted") of course, just a modular V6 x 2 with their redundant systems for the most part, including their separate V6 firing orders, unlike the Series71 engine.
      None the less, they all (DD's) are Amazing engines that are capable of producing the power and torque that they do, on such an extremely short "power stroke".
      Other than being emissions compliant (so far.. til 2027), about the Only thing the 4 cycles have going for them, is much higher piston speed for equivalent rpms (at 1800 to 2100 crank speed in "automotive" applications).... which does result in better holding (lugging) power of the torque produced, compared to the 2 cycles, even though the hp and torque numbers can be nearly identical... though the 2 cycles generally produce a much flatter (broader) torque curve, than their 4 cycle comparatives, do.

      They added the small front wing to balance the aero changes they made in the rear. Since they're only going for top speed, they have to eliminate drag as much as possible, and wings add drag.

    • @CodyHeap480

      They would have done more aero if my grandpa was able to continue developing the truck but he passed away shortly after this last run. Maybe someday my dad and I will take it back out on the salt once again.
