    The GM is pure music. It should be number 1 on the Top 40. After watching all the trucks, I had to watch Convoy again.

      I know mate but they did it and didn’t know any better because there wasn’t the stuff around we have today. I can’t imagine the blokes doing interstate in them with heavy loads. Yes I use the earmuffs but they have music in them also. They actually make you hear better when driving it.

      ​@stevesplacedownunder I think they replace a lot of the panels, a reasonable one easily brings 5 figures. I restored a bus about 25 years ago, and a lot of time going to scrap yards just to hopefully find that correct part you need.

    Hey steve. Jim Rioux from Connecticut. This is when trucks were trucks and truck drivers were men. These trucks built America but today all these climate freaks want them gone. Some day when you cant get parts for these new trucks the old Detroit's will never need all that bullshit to haul . Did you have three trucks on this run? BTW my dog speed perks up when he hears a Detroit running.

    • @stevesplacedownunder
      @stevesplacedownunder  Год назад

      Hi Jim, yes mate your exactly right and Australia also. Don’t start me on these green climate freaks mate. That’s a whole new story. These old trucks will be needed again one day in my opinion mate just like you said.
      I had 3 yes mate. The grey daycab Kenworth, the blue daycab Kenworth and the white 4000. I was driving the white and my dad was driving the grey one. My mate Mick drives the blue one, he’s been in a few of my videos.

    In an older hauling the hume video, I saw another white KW day cab just like yours, except it has dual stacks, also a V8 Detroit and is a bit louder than yours. Is that one your truck also?

    • @stevesplacedownunder
      @stevesplacedownunder  Год назад +1

      No it’s not mine mate, I can’t think of which one it may be. Some of them are louder because they put oversized stacks on them but it ruins the look of a classic vehicle I think. Not many day cab ones on the runs. There’s a lot of the sleeper cab ones though

    Is the high/ low range selector on the collum in the White? Great video. What driveline was Ur mate's Flinty? All great trucks. Enjoyed watching them.

    • @stevesplacedownunder
      @stevesplacedownunder  Год назад +1

      2 range valves on the gear stick, one for deep reduction and one for high and low range. Deep reduction currently on the dash but am in the process of changing it to the bottom valve on the gear stick, for the simple reason that it’s a better gear change when just using the gear stick and not a dash button also. The Flintstone is a 250 Mack with a quadruplex (quad box) twin stick and bogie drive Mack diffs

  • @Orbacron
    @Orbacron Год назад +1

    It sounds like a 2stroke, but diesel. Is it an inline six like modern diesel trucks? How many rpm's is this truck doing during a climb? You can definitely tell the difference in the lower deep base of the modern engines

    • @Orbacron
      @Orbacron Год назад

      @diana feeney the sound definitely is more than 2000 rpm,
      I could tell because our rigs maxed out around 1800 and the governor kicked in to "prevent over rev damage" is what we were told

    • @stevesplacedownunder
      @stevesplacedownunder  Год назад +2

      Hi mate it is a 2 stroke Detroit diesel. Inline 671. 6 cylinder, 71 cubic inches per cylinder. Rated at 238 horsepower, this particular one is governed at 2350rpm. Need to keep the revs up like this because the torque they produce is in the higher rpm range

    • @canuckaussie7092
      @canuckaussie7092 Год назад

      A 2 stroke diesel sounds like a higher rpm engine, but the piston has a power cycle going down and going up, hence it's name. The rpm isn't that more then a 4 stroke in-line 6 diesel. You're hearing the extra power cycle per revolution. 👍

    • @stevesplacedownunder
      @stevesplacedownunder  Год назад +2

      @@canuckaussie7092 it’s a power cycle every time it goes down. It fires every time it gets to the top rather than every 2nd time like a 4 stroke.
