I flopped my jeep wrangler over on its side in some fresh snow once, it went over so slowly that absolutely nothing got damaged 🤣

6V53T! A soft spot in my heart for that fine engine that powered my track back in the mech infantry days...

[@ricksmith4736]

Its good to see the Baconater again...

[@minnesotatomcat]

Disassembly with the gas axe is always the funnest! It’s the wrench that always fits 🤣

[@Ol2Stroker]

Never strips either!

[@joshjones3408]

I don't no why your not close to a million subscribers yet .... something wrong with the world now day's great video 👍👍👍👍🥺

[@Failure_Is_An_Option]

Because it's dumb...

[@Gdone]

Dogs name is Kevin ! Kevin bacon😂

[@78trav]

I really couldn't see Kevin with any other breed of dog. 🐷 Truck is awesome 😎

[@KrzyKanuck81]

Is the pigs name Kevin Bacon ? 🤣🤣

[@Ol2Stroker]

Yes

[@prevost8686]

My grandma used to have a hog that had the absolute worst case of hemorrhoids that you could imagine. I mean them hemorrhoids were huge. It’s the only hog she ever had that she didn’t have to slaughter to get a big mess of chitterlings 😂. God rest her soul.

[@carloselizondo7671]

Kevin was the star of the show.

[@scottgardner6542]

DUDE!! That swap of James’ is awesome! It ‘s cool how similar a 6V sounds at to a 12V. Very fitting that the Baconator has a pig in the shop😂 Keep up the great work👌🏼

[@scottgardner6542]

Kevin…😂😂😂

[@johnmeyer9108]

The 6 v Detroit is a great motor love the sound as it comes down the road my favorite is 12v Detroit completely wild it sounds incredible

[@blackericdenice]

If people were to drop the pan and change the filter. 700r4 and 4L60e would last a lot longer. My 96 4x4 Tahoe stock transmission went 285k miles. It was still pulling when I rebuilt it. The aluminum forward clutch housing cracked and it was slipping going to 2nd. and 3rd gear @ 75% or more throttle.

[@brandoncherry1651]

That's funny hearing that sound out of that newer truck

[@minnesotatomcat]

That suburban looks like a hoodbooger crime scene! 🤣

[@DanEBoyd]

Bacon's back? This's gotta be good!!!

[@Ol2Stroker]

He never left

[@82randyacman]

What a treat Mr.James

[@michaelhinkle6648]

Tater and the big red mater. That's what he should name the service truck lol. Great video uncle Wayno. Keep em coming.

[@Steve-O-78]

Nice job on the swap James!!! Looking forward to see how the 'Burban rolls with the 4L80e

[@richardhoneywell7411]

Great video Wayne really enjoyed watching you and James working on that 653T transplant. Love the sound of that 6V53 way better than the Duramax. Thanks for sharing stay safe Wayne and James.

[@tripod6406]

Wayne, cracking video, you and bacon make the best video's man, I always have cracking laugh with you two, keep up the great work Brother. 🇬🇧

[@Ol2Stroker]

We have alotta fun!

[@jamesjournell867]

Hello ,Wayne's, & now that's fringing awesome & soo cool & old meets new & great job 2 u both & this was soo 😎 cool 2 watch ⌚️ 😀

[@douglasmayherjr.5733]

Great Video, Wayne. You need to drag James along to Onaway. I might head up there tomorrow or Sunday, I haven’t decided yet. Thanks.

[@70sport37]

Friend of mine got a ticket for excessive smoke in a brigadear dump truck in oh recently .

[@weldingandwheeling9883]

That service truck is sweet.

[@Joeski77]

That transplant sounds awesome!

[@user-gf3mu5uc8j]

This is how a GMC suppose to sound like!

[@GlenOosterman]

I Love the "Dog"

[@tommyhall2768]

Hay buddy good job take care

[@danielbabcock2822]

Who needs Jamie Davis and a rotator when you have James Bacon and a wheel loader.😁

[@phatboizbackyardkustomz9006]

Awesome build!

[@robdixon945]

Thanks for the show Wayne 🍻

[@Acoustic_Theory]

The issue with the turbo piping and radiator piping is gonna be heat, I think. Get ahead of that by putting some good insulation around that somehow.

[@samgiles410]

Sounds so good

[@danielrenovetz5721]

Hey---------Kodiak transplant has my flexplate to keep it mobile . I hope it lives, because it's out of warranty almost 40 years .

[@jthirey9949]

My 700r4 4x4 transmission has taking a beating and still smooth as butter works perfect

[@ChiefStones]

Love Kevin Bacon. That's awsome!

[@iamgriff]

That gas pedal fabrication looks a lot better/safer than a Tesla cyber truck accelerator pedal.

[@upchuckproductions9216]

My first vehicle was a handed down 01 z71 suburban it was clapped out but it still took all my abuse and never stopped impressing me

[@Jonahs_Trucks_And_More]

Take er to Macungie 🤣

[@curtsmith5076]

Always entertaining love

[@LittleRedsGarage]

I was wondering how long that 700r4 would live behind that Detroit when my stock 305 has killed a couple 🤣👌

[@brianmackey6923]

good to see bacon back

[@tbas1972]

You guys had to of watched one pug life with the doodley doo stuff hip hip !

[@chainsawsandgenerators9952]

ford Chevy and dodge all have motor problems with the medium duty trucks. my truck shop has yet to see one of the three go 100k and be used for work.

[@SlickWilly79]

Detroits in GMC’s, and the world goes round

[@XEboi]

oooh James 😁 gonna be a good one

[@justinweaver8107]

Happy memorial day sir

[@johno6963]

James Bacon is one of those guys you know if he had a KZbin channel it would be successful, and you know his dog is gonna become his last name once he fattens it up a bit?

[@codyjames8133]

What a treat this video was for sure. Bad to the bone

[@Tchristman100]

Hopefully for long term usage, he'll eliminate that POS K&N air filter that doesn't filter worth you know what and install a regular canned Donalson air filter. K&N works great on a high performance car that is used occasionally, but for commercial use, K&N is junk. I know I had a regular K&N replacement element on my KW in a Donaldson can, and it was not made anymore because of too many commercial trucks with premature engine failure. So you decide.

[@thundermite1241]

Man imagine if a 8v53t would somehow fit

[@raguhmuffin]

That alternator mounted in reverse will put out reverse voltage!!!

[@clynesnowtail1257]

I cant get over that theres a clearance bent into in the doghouse/firewall that looks like it was made for the turbo outlet of the 6V53T.

[@Ol2Stroker]

That's my favorite part

[@backpi]

Wayne how they hanging 😂

[@wazza33racer]

6V53 was made for it, looks factory ))

[@VintageSaws]

Come put a 353t or 453t in my 2004 cateye 1500 for me always wanted to swap it😂

[@LLOutdoors-ol6vk]

What happened to the intro Wayne??? Loved that

[@cesargarcia2746]

I have 1992 gmc topkick with a 366 gasser I want to swap it with a 4-53 turbo and a 5 speed clark that I have .

[@jasonservary477]

That's not a dog that's future dinner lol

[@SouthernFarmingTV]

Badass

[@HANKTHEDANKEST]

I do likes an 80E

[@aaronjarvenpa1743]

I do believe the duramax would be cheaper to repair

[@hgghgguk]

When are you getting back to working on some semis? its been like 2 months or more since the last video on one.

[@tomkrisel4493]

It's been Winter in upstate New York for a few months. Pretty brutal to work outside on trucks.

[@colestowing8695]

@31:55 Cone of shame 🐶😭

[@crusiethmaximuss]

Why does he hate that Japanese Duramax design? Am interested about his story 🎩🧐🤔

[@rolandtamaccio3285]

If Tim Allen can have a Tool-Time girl ,,, just saying ,,, !

[@Ol2Stroker]

I need a tool time girl!

[@katmandu8208]

👍🏻🍻

[@conniedexter7666]

Holy shut that's cool

[@Tankeryanker339]

How hard would it to just put a manual transmission in the 4500 ?

[@davidetroitdieselnaveia8937]

💪👍😎

[@xxinsanitybomer4620]

Sounds awsum boys no heard sounds like so from any engine ever m8 mam oooffftyyy

[@slicksiderepairllc2822]

Makes a lot of noise and doesn’t go fast I’d say it is running normal.

[@minnesotatomcat]

Thank you bacon, duramax engines are garbage! 👍

[@TheMrDarius]

At least it wasn’t the Detroit 6.2 or the Detroit 6.5 those were anemic

[@rdukes3173]

Beavis ! )

[@tommccully1991]

How about an Allison T1000 for the Suburban ??

[@ricksmith4736]

Yeah, lets keep pouring money down the rat hole

[@user-tg8dy6vy3g]

Put a six speed manual in there

[@100pyatt]

The big question , was it a power downgrade ? 🤔🤔

[@aaronhumphrey2009]

Depends what was in there originally. A V-6 53 T isn't that powerful..150- 170 HP ?

[@brianforson2630]

You hate Chevy which is made by General Motors I love your Detroit's made General Motors that's why they have GM stamped in their blocks even gasoline Motors

[@LORFCASTER]

17:50 But... someones uncles brothers cousins girlfriends secondary boyfriend could have used this vehicle.

[@Ol2Stroker]

🤣🤣🤣

[@markscully2342]

I think that one was better than yours until you started rolling it around

[@bobbywright2100]

Is it me or was the video kinda messed up!!!??? Looked like shit on my end and I have some badass internet.

[@brianforson2630]

GM originally designed them four boat motor and at least Chevy still Dallas Durango Diesel engines unlike Ford the richest International and of course everybody's favorite dodging the Cummings motor did any of them manufacturers design a diesel motor yeah I know the Ford Powerstroke is the biggest piece of s*** on a planet

[@netrioter]

Derkamax engines suck

[@thehulkamaniabrother2.089]

I wish I had a decent garage like his so I could put my 454 into my 67 chevelle. The 396 is sick and needs attention..
