By the way: Congratulations, your channel is now officially 5 years old, as the 1st video was uploaded on 18th of April 2016 :) How about a short garage tour for a comparison what has changed in all that time?
The number one best thing you can do for a diesel - any diesel - is a good transfer pump. Look into getting a FASS unit. A little spendy, but totally worth it. It'll eliminate the vast majority of start-ability / bad running problems. You don't know me from anyone, so if you want to check with someone you know, check with Steve Darnell. I think he's put them on all of his rigs.
FASS did an excellent job at marketing and selling people a product they don't need. There is nothing wrong with the factory fuel system in this truck, or any of the trucks they make systems for. You don't need a $600 in line pump, there are plenty of less expensive OE style solutions. With a highly modified engine that's a different story but that's not where most of those pumps are installed.
Guys, your wife is not supposed to be able to tell you how to live your life and dominate you. Vehicles are Finnegan's business and his life so when his wife doesn't control what vehicles he purchases that's not called being "very understanding and forgiving" that's called being supportive and non-manipulative. Jesus I feel bad for all you suckers who think it's normal for your wife to run YOUR business and hobbies. My wife is priority number 4 in my life, after 1) ME and 2) MY CAREER because the relationship breaks down if those two things aren't taken care of first.
@@Joseph-C So, why are you even married? You do know there is a product called Fleshlight. One of those and your headaches melt away. Sheesh, you sound like the kind of man that just wants a semen repository. I love my business and my cars too, but not at the expense of long-term relationships.
That blows! Wife is going to Love you! She thought the truck was bad! The truck could be looking much better now! LOL Hope the trip back was good! Enjoy your show!
You are the best! Just how far you have come from the young days on roadkill. It's just so cool to watch you now, all the blasphemi vids, ramptrucks, the c10 is finally a ripper, now the caddy! Amazing. Keep on keeping on brother.
You can show me all the McLarens and Ferraris and other supercars but never have I felt more envy over an automobile than this Chevy Kodiak in such a great condition.
We have dual cat 3208 turbo 275hp’s in our boat. They are somewhat understressed in that application, but they’ve never given us ANY trouble in the last 15 years. They never take more than 2 turns to spin over. Just keep up oil changes, and fuel filters and they just run.
old school cab over so what all yrs., r ya wanting to seee him to buy .........???? do u have any there or anything close & or near ya up 4 sale / trade........................??????????????
I have never seen so much of the insides of an LS lying outside it whilst it's still assembled. That's impressive, nice project boat, can never have enough of them.
You know speaking on Davey Allison stuff, I have an entire real front clip off his 92 Martinsville car, yes the actual car that ran the race, I use it as a tv stand. Best tv stand ever haha
Finn you need to keep a CB in it just for the nostalgia you know like Over the top, Smokey and the bandit, Gumball Rally, Convoy, COME ON MAN YOU KNOW THE DEAL!!!👌✌️🤘🙏✝️🙌🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Attempting to add air ride to that cab would drive Finn to kiss the business side of a 12 gauge.. Air seats are all he can do practically. Air suspension would be great except for the complexity of it
@@scottakasprite I've pulled a few square body cans in my day never on a truck this big, but I think mack ch cab airbags would fit fairly easily in the front just flip the cab mount brackets on the frame. Put the pivot underneath the rear of the cab and eliminate the factory cabmounts or just leave them intentionally really loose even. Install a leveling valve and plumb it into the air supply for the brakes. Probably easier said than done, and still air seats would make a bigger better impact on ride quality.
The Halon extinguishers are awesome, you can spray them directly on aluminum and it wont run it, regular extinguishers will pit aluminum badly. Only ones I will keep in my cars.
@@TravelingStacker I don’t do the phon notifications either......but I’m talking about going to my subscriptions page and it’s just good to see Finns channel pop up

Its not a semi truck chassis. Its a Medium Duty truck. Its a 2.5 ton. My big trucks a GMC TopKick which is the same truck. Your 3208T should be 250hp rated. Should be a Eaton rear end. The model depends on the GVWR of the truck and varies widely based on how the truck was originally speced. Some haters will say the 3208 is a junk motor because its parentbore and but there good engines albeit thirsty.
There are some semi's that are class seven trucks like this one but typically a semi is a class eight. As far as class seven trucks go this one is quite large
@@chris6200 The old class 7s are pretty much all this large. GM used to make class 7 and 8 trucks that were very simular to the Kodiak/TopKick and those were the Bruin/Brigadier. Truck class is based on GVRW and although this is large truck physically its GVRW is too low to be classified as a Class 8. These trucks could even be spec as a tandem axle which would raise the gvrw but not enough to classify as a class 8. And people treating these trucks like they are semi trucks is how people blow them up.
@Max Power Lol, my brother used to say the same thing, then he found out she'd been having an affair for most of their marriage. He got the answer to his question.
“I’m drinking already”....... holds up a can with “Light” written on it🙄🙄🙄...... the correct phrase would be, “I’m holding my daughters beer”..... loving the ramp truck by the way and the destroyed boat engine is incredible!!!!! That’s real devastation😷👍👍👍
As a truck driver and part time self thought truck mech, I can tell you that truck will last longer then almost anything they made since 2007 and newer. It has no def and no regen or egr of any kind on that motor. It has full 12k front axel and looks like 23k rear axle with probably a locker. Service that engine, rear end, front axle kingpins, and transmission with fresh oil and filters and it will last you for many many years to come. That is a seriously cool find. Rare and built like a brick sht house to lay thru a war 😆
I think it’s because waffle house’s hq is right outside Atlanta in norcross ga. My old company’s office was literally right down the road from them and I had no idea till I left 😂
When Finnegan was reading the service records in the glove box he said that in 2003 a guy named Aaron Reeves worked on it... That truck has quite a history with guys named Aaron Reeves.
Oof air brakes. Even if it’s an “RV” y’all might wanna get on the “pre trip/post trip” train to save yourselves some heartache and money on a tow bill or tire swap on the side of the road
The flipped up AC vent on the passenger side reminds me of every square body I've ever owned. lol. Time for a folded up little piece of paper wedged in it
When I redid the interior of my 79 C20, I added little dots of jb weld to the vents and sanded them so there is enough friction to keep the vents where you aim them. My 88 K5 has the cardboard upgrade!
Two words, Mike: KENWORTH EXHAUST!!! A sweet ride like your cherry-bomb here deserves to be "Stylin' & Profilin,'" after all. Oh yeah - the Cat 3508 cranks out 500-750 horses, depending on the application......
That Davey Allison is the crew chief for the DeFrank & Sons Racing super stock car sponsored by California Carduster. I wonder if he's any relation to Nascar's Davey Allison (RIP).
Davey Allison died on July 13, 1993! I was a huge fan and was bummed because I read of his passing in the Stars & Stripes news paper in Somalia while in deployment in the Army
Fun facts about Waffle House, there's over 2,100 locations today, 439 of them are in Georgia, and the reason for that is the first one was built and opened in Georgia
That transmission fill shot reminded me that I did the same on my medium truck and it wasn't on a perfectly level surface. I was climbing the hill on I-8 out of San Diego to start the cross country trip, engine screaming up the hill at 30 mph and the transmission started to puke fluid onto the exhaust. Thought something was seriously wrong and had a mini heart attack in the process. Realized I overfilled the trans. Stopped smoking after about 10-15 miles of that. Made it the rest of the way no problem except needed to change the fuel filter a couple times (newer fuels knocked all the varnish from the old fuel into the filter). The old IDI was dog slow, but she didn't let us down.
Lol "Ive crawled under it from front to back, everything looks great" and is then surprised to find the muffler disconnected hahaha
Definitely didn't look under it lol

The Davey Allison badge gets even more crazy considering he died in 1993.
93 and 94 were really tough for Nascar since we lost Allison/Kulwicki in 93 and Bonnet in 94
I googled Davey Allison so im thinking the same thing lol
Someone probably checked in under his name not much verification for conference badges back then id think
Wasnt 93 the year rusty and dale did the polish victory lap at atlanta?
Not really. If you go back to the insta post. It was someone else and they worked at the company, drove the truck around the country.
You can call the truck what you like but it’s “Clifford” in my book, I used to own a big red bong of the same name... 🔴😎✌️
