Gary and Ryan. I see you guys have an original manual too. I hope you watched my Pittsburgh Chrysler siren you tube post. Your siren has some corrosion holes, like mine did. I put some hours into restoring it and all is good now. Do you have the shrouds and are you going to restore yours ? I have the turntable base with mine as you can see in my you tube. I do have a problem now. The engine won't run. The compression is good, new dist. cap, plugs, plug wires, rebuilt carb and fuel pump. plugs fire. new coil. No action when I put gas down the carb. I can't get it go no how. I think that dist gear that engages the cam might be bad. The rotor turns OK. No one I check with knows how to work on the old hemis. What can I do ?

Another interesting point. The Feds use these to get around and hide from the public. They are so nasty and evil they have to. Occasionally you'll see a door open in a passageway and suits will come out. They get annoyed if you notice them exiting. There is an additional maze that connects the Federal Courthouse to the Federal Agent Building all the way to the County Jail that only Feral Feds use. So if you are looking for one of these nasty people... you might be able to look them up in their mole den. Look for the paranoid suit walking fast to escape.

You need to come to Houston and tour their tunnel system. It is a series of tunnels and a tunnel loop under the whole of downtown Houston. There are about 6 or 7 different food courts and shopping areas. All the business people use them since they don’t let the homeless that have taken over the streets down there.

These old giants are my favorite sirens and not only they can set paper or grass on fire from a foot in front of the horn it might kill you if you put your body on contact with the horn bells reaching 189 db at the throat that's in the thresh hold of death, And the one on Cerro Negro L.A. that sirens on a nearly 2000 foot mountain and it's bin heard on Catalina island 59 miles from it's location.
@MrHamit642 жыл бұрын
WTF? 189 DB? You sure about that? That's rocket ship loud. But then again people mostly talk about how at 100 feet this thing goes to 138 DB which is still scary ass loud but wowzers 189. Fun fact at 138 the little snap off mics of a Zoom H5 recorder can verry well take this thing. But mind blown if the 189 thing be true. How did people operate the dam thing then? I mean was the person inside something or what ever?

One time, years ago, a friend of mine, Fred Berry, a horn and volume lover, plugged his ears, then from 15 feet away walked toward the throats of my Chrysler, full power, 4,600 rpm. He got within 6 feet. After I shut down, he told me that he could get no closer, his vision was blurred, his heart was palpitating and his teeth were buzzing. My owners manual states, "Under no conditions is anyone to stand in front of the horn projectors when the siren is running". Later some decibel experts told me that Fred could have boiled the fluid in his eyes, torn the retina from his eyes and ruptchured a blood vessel and had a stroke. They said to never let anyone do that again that I could be liable too..

So it drives me nuts when people that either lie or they are ignorant put they are not truthful. I’ve collected them since I was 5yrs old. My first siren was an ACA allertor 125db. Then I got cyclone. Then thunderbolt. Then a hurricane 130db. Then I got my favorite of all time the P-50. I’ve recorded 141db 5’ away and 137db at 100’. I’ve ran all of my sirens inside the house since I was a kid. I’ve ran the p50 141db at the mouth. Loud as hell. I’ve never broke anything with it. And people go around saying ohh you will blow out the windows. I’ve heard it my whole life. Now my dad was in the military and I’ve got to do a lot with c6 door charges and stuff and just c4 etc. and I understand how a detonation which makes over pressure works. Because it’s a high pressure thing. The siren is not a high pressure detonation. Now the p-50/t-135 rattles your bones and my cyclone is terrifying you feel like your getting raped by an elephant it Pierce’s you soul. But it’s not a high velocity blast. And I’ve ran my sirens from 110db to 141db in the house with China and glass etc. never have I broke a window. And these nothing special about the Chrysler I’ve heard 3 diff ones in person. When your next to it. It doesn’t rattle your body like my p-50 just eats you alive because it’s a lower freq hz. The Chrysler is a higher pitch siren and it doe at feel like it gets my organs as bad.
@ryannaeve40064 жыл бұрын

@supertyfon17364 жыл бұрын
P-50 is 135 db at 100 ft and 141 db at 5 ft is as loud as a train horn and the Chrysler siren is actually deep in pitch about 460 hz the P-50 is dual toned 470/705 hz and if you did collect sirens you'd make vids on them like real enthusiasts.

Much of the tunnels have been sealed, I went down in the 70's before you could see a bank vault of the old fidelity bank, the oil mens club was down there as well as shops, restaurant, eateries, bar type clubs, and a place for high class call girls to go. Then it fell in disarray areas closed off and redesigned.

By the was. New zealand has sirens that could eat chrysler sirens for dinner as they are specially built with turbos to increase the sound and 2 huge horns on eather side and they are like our sirens but with charged up sound without a supercharger or air compressor and they are 159 db because of where they are.

My research is showing the GP12 is 124dB @100 feet, (source: www.klaxonsignals.com/images/Products/docs/datasheet/417.pdf) the Tactical Tool NZ one is 110, maybe a little more @100 feet. (source: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sICWaWyrf96UfdU) The Chrysler is 138dB @100 feet. It still reigns supreme as the loudest siren ever made anywhere in the world.
