The engineers of the 71 series were geniuses... Those end drives - housings - Cams - Balance Shafts are interchangeable Front To Back, as to allow LH or RH Blower / Exhaust (Back or Front if in a Transverse install) and there are LH/RH rotation parts available.... Truly one of the most versatile engine systems made...

The amazing thing about the Detroit Diesel Series 71 engine {so named because each cylinder had a nominal displacement of 71 cubic inches per cylinder (actually 70.93”)} is that inline 6 cylinder engine aka 6-71 was in continuous production from 1938 until 1995 giving it a production lifespan of 57 years which is unrivaled in the heavy duty Diesel engine market as well as the light duty (passenger car & light truck) diesel or gasoline market. The 6-71 has a production lifespan 8 years longer than the Small Block Chevrolet engine (1954-2003). The series 71 engine was produced in both inline models with One, Two, Three, and Six cylinder and “V”-Type engines (first produced in 1957) with Six, Eight, Twelve, Sixteen, and Twenty-Four Cylinders. The 16V-71 and 24V-71 engines used multiple cylinder heads per bank to keep the cylinder head size and weight to manageable proportions with the 16V-71 using four cylinder heads from the inline 4-71 engine and the 24V-71 using four cylinder heads from the inline 6-71 engine. Additionally the using of multiple cylinder heads from other engines on these two large engines helped keep production cost down and maintain parts commonality. In addition to inline and V style engines the 71 series engine was produced as a “Pancake Engine” with the 6L-71 or 6N-71 that were designed for horizontal mounting for underfloor applications on larger Crown and Gillig school buses and transit buses such as the articulated Crown-Ikarus 286 and the GM-6046 also called a “Twin-Diesel or Duplex-Drive” engine which was two 6-71 engines Siamesed together making a 12-cylinder engine that was used in later model M4-Sherman tanks and small to medium sized boats such as the Higgins Landing craft during World War II as well other marine and off-road uses following the war. The worn and abused 6-71 that our esteemed host tortured tested to its finial demise is without a doubt the most produced heavy duty diesel on the planet today. One thing is undeniably for certain the effect upon modern world history that the “Screaming Jimmy”, “Driptroit”, “Green Leaker”, or simple “Detroit” 57 year production history cannot be under standard. The workhorse that is the 6-71 founds it way basically unchanged into every application possible from on-highway use in busses, and trucks, military equipment, marine, industrial, generators, construction, pumps, farming, and heavy equipment, in which it reliability has proved to be nothing short of legendary. Admittedly by today’s standards the 6-71 and for that matter all of the 2-Stroke Detroit’s are power pigs but when the 6-71 was first introduced it was nothing short of revolutionary. Before the introduction of the 6-71 Diesel engines were very large and heavy and as a result they were mainly limited to stationary engines or marine applications where weight and size were generally of little consequence. However the 6-71 charged all that with its use of 2-stroke engine architecture which gives the engine a power stroke every rotation compared to the 4-stoke engine which allowed the 6-71 to be much smaller than it 4-stoke diesel counterparts in an era when the gasoline engine was king.

Thanks for the teardown. We'll probably never see an engine be produced for so long again. They defiantly had their place in their time.

Love your videos and demos! Both the demolition and demonstrations!

These engines and all their cousins of the 2 cycle version gave always had very good to weight ratio and they are very easy to work on - the bigger versions were a pain in the ass to set the injector rack on because you were actually dealing with 4 racks connected together ... if you weren't careful you could burn down 4 cylinders with a messed up rack setting. The 71 and 53 were dry liner engine and it required some skill to get the proper liner to bore clearence. The 92 series and 149 series were wet liners and much easier to overhaul. The detroits were very popular in marine applications and generator applications - they built the 16-149 up to 1500 kw and would put them in hospital applications that had to be up and at full load in 10 seconds or less ... you could always tell when your Detroit generator got to 1800 rpm - your nose would start to bleed... oh and our host made a little error when he made the remark about the top bearing always showing the most wear. In a 2 cycle engine there is a power stroke every time the piston comes down - so since the piston never has to be dragged down by the crank all the wear is on the bottom bering shell... I worked for the Detroit distributor in Dutch Harbor Alaska back in 1989 and 1990... and learned this - commercial fishermen can wreck an engine in every possible way and a few ways nobody has ever heard of... but on the other hand I have seen the 12-71 powering a generator turning 1200 rpm last 30,000 hours with good maintenance.. go figure.

@jth1699

2 жыл бұрын

I failed to specify that it is the main bearings where the wear is always on the bottom shell - the rod bearings always show the most wear on the top shell... this is caused by the power stroke that is applied to the rotating assembly with every down stroke of the piston ...

Glad you decided to tear this down, thanks for posting!

I skippered a delivery trip on a small coaster that had a V8 71 Series. What a great engine! It purred along without stopping all the way from Gibraltar to Plymouth - 8 days. One of the crew told me it ran away occasionally and one time they'd covered over 20 nautical miles before getting the thing back down again!

The injector demonstration was pretty cool. Always neat to see the guts of these dinosaurs.

That was very MUCH a fascinating video! ..... LOVE watching these tear-down videos here in the UK 😎 Thank you.

I truly enjoyed watching you pull that "ultra rare" Detroit apart. Thank you sir, I hope you have an awesome Thanksgiving!

The 2 cycle Detroit is the smoothest engine ever built. Once it fires you never need the rod caps again, as the rod is always loaded. It was running at 5 grand floating the valves and ran 10 minutes without water. Had it not scored the pistons and locked up, it would still be sitting there running 5k...

Amazed that the bearings held fairly well during its life and final abuse.
