Sounds just as good over there as they used to here in the States!! There is no sweeter music than a 2 cycle Detroit engine! Thanks so much for a great video!!

I love that engine, drove a Terex 30 ton off road dump truck with it, was stopped by the owner for speeding on the haul road, was the hydrostatic with 6 gears, I was making my way to fourth when he saw me, "I know it's fast and has a smooth ride, but slow it down," had to wait till he left to get it back up there.

Detroit Diesel.... when 20 mpg sounds like ur doing 200.... I LOVE it!!!

My uncle used to drive one of those puppies back in the 70 and I loved to ride with him. It's like music to my ears.

When 1500 RPMs sounds like 8000!

One of the first diesels I drove was a International with a 6V53 Detroit Diesel with a 4X4 transmission ( 4 speed main box with a 4 speed brownie ) and you almost had to wear ear plugs to drive it.This was many many years ago.Later on I progressed to a 6V71 and it was just as noisy.

used to dyno the 6V53t silver series, with a supercharger and a turbo charger for the marine corps LAV these things are crazy we kept the whole camp up one night dynoing one. haha

I do love the sounds of 2 stroke Detroit Diesel engines!

that is the best sounding detroit ever, im in love!

What FUN . What memories . Super Truck from a Different Era . 5.3 litres . Sounded like 1000 bhp . They went very well . As a retired Professional Driver I have to comment , however , that the Driver kept his hand on the Shifter unnecessarily . This can and WILL wear the selector forks inside the transmission out very prematurely . Unless you intend to change a gear within say Two seconds time , hand SHOULD be on Knee . The Old Two Stroke Detroits are just such a GLORIOUS sounding thing . 6V53 best of all .

I dig that "overgrown Porsche" sound! Like a giant diesel saxophone!

Fantastic sound, thanks for uploading mate. Hello from the UK.

Great truck. Drove up that road today :)

Nice little vlatt up around the Coona industrial area and across the bottom wier crossing and onto Timor Road. Good to see that it's been raining and green, better than it was when I was there last.

If I had this ride, I'd wake the teenagers up across the street who kept me awake to all hours of the night partying, and give them a little 0600 Detroit alarm clock. Gotta love it.

the Glory days we will all remember will stay with us in our minds. blessed are those who are able to re live those days. and thanks for sharing good times in our troubled times in these last days. HP126.

Such an awesome sounding truck!

I used to hate detroits back when I had to drive them all day long and they were plentiful. Now.............. I want one to cruise with. In a pickup or some type of rodded out smaller truck. The sound just brings me back. I love it.

Love that steering wheel Knighty, very flash.

Beautifull sound 😍😍😍

You aren't kidding. I have a 1969 Diamond Reo C10142 here in the States. The only other Diamond Reo parts I have ever seen were a static display truck in a museum, and the cab and radiator that were used for a rat rod. I cant get parts to keep the Gold Comet engine going, so its getting a Cummins.

Manorfarmdenton There was a 8V53 factory installed in a Diamond T back in the early seventies 247 hp at 2600 RPM. Also a couple a couple of retrofitted ones in a bonneted bogie drive Deutz used to haul a tri-axle fuel tanker. Big truck in it's time. There was one put in a cabover Leyland single drive with bogie trailer hauling fruit in cages went like a rocket and took 2 hours of the trip time within 500 ks compared to the original Leyland engine and most of it was done up Mt Victoria.

aside from this example this engine was in my opinion very popular in the old International loadstars 1850 and the fleestars as well as old trash trucks and the old Chevrolet C-70 and yes older military vehicles

@@matildastanford7019: You pass the comment about hearing it from 10 km away... Need to tell a story about an overnight mob that was a national carrier in the 1970's. Late mate was supervisor for this overnight company. Truck from Melbourne was late - very late! Big knob boss was prowling the docks, waiting to tear the interstate driver a new one. BKB goes into the supervisors' dock office and is growling at the supervisor... Supervisor throws his hand up. Depot was at Beare Avenue, Netley. "Hang on, he is pulling up at South Road!" The supervisor exclaims! BKB: "How the F*** do you know that?!?" Supervisor: "I can hear his 6V53!" This is about 2.5 km from the depot, in peak hour traffic. About 15 seconds later, supervisor hears him going up through the gears. "He'll be here in 5 minutes!" BKB: "Yeah, sure!" Not believing what he is hearing! 5 minutes later, the Melbourne truck rolls into the yard. BKB goes to tear the driver a new one, and the driver presents a timestamp from a Bundy clock, with the simple message to the BKB: "Tell Melbourne that they need to get me out by 8 P.M., not F***ing after midnight like they have this morning!!!" BKB walked away with tail between legs!

Yes they are !!!

HOW DID U MAKE UR DETROIT V6 53 SOUND LIKE THAT IT SOUNS AMAZING

A vintage RHD Diamond T? Don't see those often. I imagine they're even scarce down in Australia, since there aren't even that many of the LHD ones left here in the States.

where can i buy that engine??? Im from Panama and i love how thats engine sounds
