Hello driver! Man that truck sounds amazing!! Would love to see it with 2 stacks and maybe an old style wing on top?? Keep the videos rolling, 10-4 driver im gone
working on stacks as we speak
Going to sound awesome with dual exhaust. Sounds great now
I hope so.. Im working on it now. stacks are backordered.
That thing sounds so nice
it really does.. I love the 5ek maybe some time I can get a c16 or c18 then I can run with the big dogs.
Hi James from Yorkshire England Kristal with 500hp is going to be a monster just be back and watched Marla pulling your new low loader trailer and she looks cool as f##k bro love your content keep it coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
thanks big Paul
Great video brother Krystals happy now that Lil kitty can stretch its legs
Get in touch with Steve at FSC Trucking to see how he did the double stacks on his truck and he also has a apu on his truck also
Me and Steve are friends. Stacks aren’t bad it’s the intakes that I’m struggling to find the parts for.
That sound never gets old, does it. Love the video, Mr. Pretty!
thanks Rick..
Sounds awesome.
it really does.. I love this engine.
She's a mean machine. I love them detroits and those cats. My dream truck is a pete with a 3408. Great videos as always my friend.
id like to own a 3408 at some point
Good looking ride sounds good to
Thx Chris
Vroom vroom, sounds good, looks good.

Detroit powered Boing 777 would sound real cool😁commin in a little hot & hit the Jakes
lol for sure
Make the turbo sing brother sounds great
Thx Tony
Good morning yall man what a hot morning
morning bro
Hard to believe that those old trucks were effectively computer controlled .
It was a fully mechanical truck. Now it has modern power plant
That's cool running good.cant wait to see her done.ha ve you been the new toy to work ?
Thanks James
Oooooh sounding goooood.
Appreciate ya
Morning James. They screw ya at the drive threw.
always...
Very cool! So now it’s a 500? Love that Cat turbo whistle! Nice job James!
we actually went backwards a little and put a 475 on it. with the smaller injectors it makes more power on the 475 tune. we will put injectors and a turbo on it in the coming year
1 stack k.wopper,sounds good pretty
I agree bro
Love that truck James can't wait to see what is next keep up the good work brother
thanks billy
Love the content brother
Sure sounds good.
It really does. Hopefully twin stacks don’t change the sound much
Put an HHO fuel cell on it, to stop all the black smoke.
It's gonna look good with dual exhaust and air intake.
im half way done with the exhaust but the stacks are on backorder ugh...
Morning Mr. Pretty. you know I get it, Dual pipes and all, but man one single 7inch 45 degree turn out stack would roll coal man❤❤ Have you thought about a classic cabover golf cart to ride around in at shows? Make a scale model of your Truck you use to take the others to the show? Ride around with your logo on it?
Maybe if I sell
Off some trucks I’d be into building some kind of something like that
Yall take care be safe 🙏
you too
She definitely likes to sing like that
She’s a runner
@JamesPretty glad it's finally going your way with her an she is putting a smile on your face
Jemes complimenti
She sounds beautiful James do you have a fleet pride near you they have a great selection of parts for these old trucks love the old iron ❤️😊😊
I use Fleetpride for most of my parts
Could not help but notice you standing in front of a truly classic KW big bunk K-100C. The only thing more luxurious in the KW catalog in the late 70's through 90's was the Aerodyne.
I'm guessing flashing an ECM is a bit like flashing the BIOS in a computer in that the word "uh-oh" is never a good utterance during the process.
lol yep uh-oh is never a good thing lol
There is Marla the Aerodyne.
Hello from Australia have a look at some Australia kenworth cabover for some ideas on the air intake 🙂
ive been looking had to get info such as part numbers and things
@@JamesPretty nice 👌 good luck 👍
Each his own but super singles are a pain turning unless heavy haul in future
Thx for bein here
@JamesPretty I watched vid on you tube big screen wich I just figured out I can do via my phone 😁
@@brandoncherry1651 nice
@@JamesPretty yes sir it was 💯
Belle vidéo 👌 😉 🚛 🚛 🇺🇸 🇫🇷
thanks brother
@@JamesPretty 😉 👍 🚛
Good morning
Morning
Bom dia abração é o Marcio Cavanha do Brasil , Curitiba PR.
Adoro os truk👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thx for being here
Roll that beautiful coal footage! She's a smoker now. Seems to run good on that.
not bad, needs injectors and bigger Turbo then it'll be complete
@@JamesPretty I've tried to search for a air filter can in my state for ya, but never came across anything.
@@glens2036 thx for trying
That's awesome how many HP's now?
We actually turned it back down to 475 need some bigger injectors
Super 👏👍🥰🇨🇿😉
Thx pavel
I had to take a big loss and sell both my cabovers for $2,000 per truck
it happens Ronnie.. the market is down down
Hi James looks like it took. That’ll pep Krystal right up. I must’ve missed it how much torque will it be making? I heard the 500 horsepower. Curious what was it originally set at? Krystal is coming along great. Stinks they sent the wrong elbows! And bad on that shop not getting in touch with you. They should have called when they didn’t have your order. Stay safe
I put the 500/1850 tune in but went back to the 475/1750 because I didn't have the injector for the 500 and bigger tune.. thats gonna happen eventually but this one works very well
That stinks wrong injectors! Seems like a lot of work for that small a gain. Unless you can go up higher than 500 with the injectors. I’ve done almost the same change and as far as it seemed I really didn’t gain economy performance was only slightly better. But too remember I’m running 2500-3000 miles a week so I might be looking differently. But if it was mine biggest worry would be clutch rating.
@@darrencatenacci2737 engine base is a 435. Smallest horsepower for the iron set. Can take 550 with injectors and turbo change. I already did the harmonic damper upgrade.
Clutch is a 2150 torque Eaton easy pedal
@@JamesPretty Oh heck you already got it covered! Then I’d boost it to 550 2050 torque if possible. That would make big difference. But turbos and injectors ain’t cheap so. You’ll probably have to do one then the other. Cool
That, tune up. Sounded like Tim gentry and son's was just out of shot talking you through the process, while cooking a rack of ribs.? 👈👀👀👺👍
Hahaha me and Tim are friends but nope he wasn’t helping I have a 3406 guru that gave me a hand with the files and some education
Going to make it run like a scaled dog are you 😂😂😂😂
Might just do that ;)
@@JamesPretty just going to give a little pepin it's step. Run with the big dogs
James aren’t you a commercial pilot as well?
Yes
Sounds MEAN…looks like it’s ready to head up to your home state and haul 100K+with those Michigan floats on the steer axle😂dang sure has the power to do it now!
I hear ya in regards to less-than-reputable online parts sales…chaps my @$$ too.
ya maybe some day ill have a bucket to pull behind it
She sounds like she is running pretty stout now
ya it feels nice.. could benefit from a bigger turbo
Just be careful about those hot tunes just look at Tim gentry he’s always rebuilding them hot engines way before they should be
Not critical just an observation but dam it’s nice
I’m using factory tunes I want it to live
@@JamesPretty Kool mate
gas tanks, your a hoot, fuel tanks noob, wink, just a reminder that every 550 hp 5ek breaks the crankshaft, you better get a air filter before you dust that engine, check your injector numbers,
It’s always gas tanks and gas pedal for some reason. Can’t get it out my vocabulary lol I’m looking for filters. And not everyone breaks the crank but ya they do lol
