#5; 2000 Kenworth W900L, 8" stacks, 3406E 1MM CAT, jake brake action in Tulsa, Oklahoma

[@Bigmike3406E]

That’s 15.8 liters that 3406 E is actually a C16 .Cat. They are awesome . I have one in my 2000 379 Peterbilt and put the marine cam in it to the tune of 800HP pulling a bull wagon.

[@HyperActive7]

It's a different ride when you know what you have under you makes most other trucks cry..

[@christopherbrown577]

Man I love big trucks

[@henhooke]

Love the bit near the start when you had to give her a blip on the jakes under the bridge 😂👍🏻, nice Vid!

[@tank2g2]

That's one badass truck you got there, sir.

[@hugolima6707]

What a beautiful engine sound!

[@franciscodiaz9546]

Thats the sound of power 👌👍

[@redline350zHR]

this beast sounds INSANE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@andreagoranovich7568]

I love that noise so much

[@donotcare330]

Best ride along video. Thanks for posting!

[@kentallard589]

Thank you for the memories! Grew up in one. Straight8 speed eaton long legs on her though. Dads had the twins on his. Made it to quiet. But still a rocket ship!👌🏽

[@DMTruckSpotting]

A little info on the W903L2 name; it’s abbreviated from W903L2 Aerocab, which is how it’s presented in the bill of materials/build sheet. W903L2 itself means it’s a W900L with a B3 cab, which is the cab that mates to the Aerocab sleepers. Not sure what the “2” designates but for W9s, it was added circa 1992 (W900B & L became B2 & L2). This designation applies to all W9Ls with Aerocab sleepers, so it’s pretty common. All that said, this model is not widely known about because there is a big discrepancy between what KW plants say the truck is and what the build sheet actually says.

[@onboard4793]

thanks for Share Beautiful video I like this sound

[@jonathangarcia4089]

Where can I find the Jake brake brother I got a 1998 w900 and cannot find Jake brake

[@ehhjeep]

Could you please do a walk around video of you truck? Would love to see her. Thanks for the great ride along.

[@0007Robert]

ehhjeep I plan to once I got her polished back up good again, currently she's absolutely filthy and covered in tons of dead bugs lol Also you're welcome, kind of liking the camera location but I'm tossing the idea of a few different spots as well lol

[@ehhjeep]

Cool, I understand about her not being ready to show. :) Stay safe and roll smart.

[@0007Robert]

ehhjeep yeah, I'm overly picky about her haha I should get some night footage tomorrow though of me rolling, I will say the phone has a great view mounted there during the night

[@ehhjeep]

The camera view in Tulsa was good. I like being able to see the air cleaners and hood mirrors. WOW! Never would have guess you are doing this on a phone? Good job!

[@0007Robert]

ehhjeep cool deal. It's about the closest to a headcam I'm able to get lol and yeah, just using my old cell phone haha

Enjoyed the ride. 👍

[@keithinapete1017]

Wooooooow I learned something new!! That bitch so AMAZING

[@frankiehughes7423]

I live in Tulsa and I wouldn't be surprised if I've seen or at least heard that truck on 75 once or twice

[@0007Robert]

It's possible! I do enjoy running those states

[@williamcreel624]

Sounds like a steering wheel holder playing! LOL!!!!

[@randyfrink6867]

For sure-just checking

[@jacobpatterson7363]

Wats the digital Guage for in the middle of the dash?

[@0007Robert]

That's my Pyrometer, tells me my EGT's or also known as exhaust temperature

[@jacobpatterson7363]

Oh ok. I was wondering why it was going up and down. Is there a number that the temp should not go over. Im kinda new with cats and im trying to learn.

[@0007Robert]

@@jacobpatterson7363 my general rule is I don't like it over 900 but I have it mounted on the exhaust pipe behind the turbo. If you have it in the manifold then roughly 1200. I don't mind over 900 on a pull but I won't keep it there long

[@jacobpatterson7363]

Oh ok. Thanks for the info. Hope to stay in touch as I learn more about the motor

[@vivien_hardgas]

what does the digital gauge shows?

[@0007Robert]

Pyrometer temperature or how hot the exhaust is

[@bigcat2679]

Lol. I love all the guys who say oh your over Revving it in every cat video where a guy goes over 1500 rpm. My mechanical 3406c that’s turned up hates being below 1400 on a pull. Lug it to 1000 loaded and the fuckin thing has a your killing me vibration and pyro sky rockets just like his.... mine rocks and rolls 1400-1700 ish. After 1800 my turbo falls flat. Empty I skip gears and usually go from 1000-1400 rpm. As you can see and hear his motor is just singing in that range he keeps it. 👍 and yes. Mine is turned up properly keyboard warriors.

[@johndecosta1900]

Got a 2ws E motor in mine with 4.11 rears its about 1650 at 70 mph and it loves it. Itll pull until 1250 then i gotta drop a gear but 1500 rpm shifts dont always work like everyone says.

[@randyfrink6867]

Did you meet with Peterbilt Steve?

[@0007Robert]

Randy Frink of course haha been parked at his dealer since I delivered, didn't feel like parking at that little truck area beside it lol

[@lumberjunkee8451]

I sure miss the sound of my straight pipes.......got an ole, what I call an, "Obama " truck now.......all that ole emission bullcrap😤😭😠☹️😣

[@0007Robert]

Todd Mitchell I know a number of people with emissions trucks, generally they either delete it or they'll luck out and have 0 problems out of it lol but I'll stick to my 1999 model Cat

[@hlozano6231]

You are one lucky son of bitch I'm so jealous of you! Good job and God bless you, stay safe and enjoy the hell out of that wonderful truck of yours

[@southernpyro504]

How do you get the truck rolling from a stop without it jerking?

[@0007Robert]

SouthernPyro I really don't know what to tell you about that, lots of practice I guess lol this clutch is really stiff, add that to the fact it's holding the factory amount of 2250 lbs of torque behind it, I know if I let off too fast, 'dumping the clutch' as it's called, there's a good possibility I can begin snapping parts lol it's just really knowing the truck is all. Slowly ease off the clutch and begin to press into the throttle once off the clutch. Takes practice but well worth it

[@justgerardo7135]

When you come to a stop almost a stop put the truck in nutreaul then when its time take off back into gear

[@danielaguirre2516]

How high do you have the rpm’s at when you use the Jake brake

[@0007Robert]

I keep the RPM's in my truck over 1500, sometimes I'll let it get down to 1400 or so if I'm on a straight away. But typically between 1400-1900 is where I keep it

[@danielaguirre2516]

Heh I usually have mine at 2000 rpm

[@0007Robert]

@@danielaguirre2516 lol if I had an all mechanical Cat, I would. Me having the 3406E let's me run slightly lower RPM's lol

[@danielaguirre2516]

007Robert I need that stopping power when going real fast in these war machines lol

[@0007Robert]

@@danielaguirre2516 lol I need it too but my big engine makes enough torque for me to stop pretty quick anyways.

Randy Frink why on Earth would i want to go from a W9 to a 389? Lol my 2000 W9 is perfect for me

First time on KZbin I’ve tried to press the like button like Five times fast without thinking because I agree so much with this comment! I think. Kenworth w900 is the most amazing looking, sounding, everything else truck. Everything about the w900 just looks like it came straight from God! I love those damn trucks!!

It's a 1MM motor, not a 2WS or the 1LW. The 2WS and the 1LW were smaller 14.6 liter 3406E engines. My 1MM is a 15.8 liter 3406E engine.
