First Drive in the Cummins Swapped Land Cruiser!

[@ISupportTheCurr3ntThing]

I love how the exhaust rolls right into the snorkel!

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Redneck egr! 🤣 no but actually the snorkel is non operational so it’s not actually inhaling any of that smoke. I w as going to remove the snorkel after the swap but realized there’d be a bunch of holes in the fender

[@CrazyDragonCross]

@@Austin_SaintOnge have to say it does look cool but logically for people who didn't know the snorkel isn't connected, it looks like a stupid idea at first glance xD

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

@@CrazyDragonCross I actually wanted to remove the snorkel but didn’t want to weld the bolt holes 🤪 yeah that would be the most redneck egr ever

[@devastationvg1766]

Sounds like an old dump truck, love it

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Haha I guess that’s true It sounds like a race tractor 🤪

[@sambgroovy123]

Awesome build, you might need to move your exhaust outlet or your snorkel intake. I think your filter will get dirty real quick. Lol.

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Yup I was telling honeybadger the same thing. I’m gonna put ‘redneck egr’ on it to confuse people🤣 Snorkel isn’t plumbed into the intake system. It’s too small of a bottleneck for the turbo. (Supposedly) I only will attach it for water crossings.

[@HoneyBadgerFarm]

So you have an external EGR system.....exhaust exits the engine and then gets sucked back in via the snorkel......interesting

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Yes- it’s called red neck egr😂 No- snorkel isn’t plumbed into the intake. Only attach it for water crossings. Didn’t want to relive it and have a gaping hole

[@tkclips506]

Yessssss!! It roars down the roads. Tap yourself on the back, you did it. Good edit on the video.

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Yeahhhhh buddy! Still lots of fun little kinks to work out- but she’s in- and driving under her own power! Thanks! For the most of last year it was 90% wrenching and putting in the legwork with 10% focused on editing and videography. Now I get to enjoy editing for cool videos like this one! Glad you liked it bud! Which rigs do you have again?!?

[@tkclips506]

@@Austin_SaintOnge Yeah, wrenching takes most time, then all the pieces come together quickly. I'm looking forward to the dope videos you'll be making. I just finished rebuilding the front of a 97 lx450 after the previous owner hit a tree. New rad support, inner aprons, all rads, etc. I should of video documented it, just have photos mostly. I'm also building an 86 HJ60, from the frame up, have lot's of footage for editing, just need to find the time. The channel of the 60 is @VanCityTom, which will have 80 content also.

[@livingstonekot757]

I can see some of the exhaust gas getting sucked back into the air intake...

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

It’s mainly because the hood stack dumps right at the snorkel (which is disconnected from the intake) I didn’t want to take the snorkel off as it’ll leave bolt holes in the fender

[@jessemangrum5733]

So sick bro!!! Only down fall to that hood stack is the passenger side with be black before you know it

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

I was thinking the same thing but there’s no soot at all anywhere on that side 🤷‍♂️

[@AMG43ramirez]

My OCD is kicking in real hard starring at that steering wheel!

so cool to see americans who actually have a manual cummins. fkn legendary combo

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Haha yeah brother! It’s the way

[@marshallborges9606]

Any particular reason you decided to sell it? Great project!

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Only reason was to pay off debt and be able to start from scratch on a new platform. My current 80 is most likely getting a built engine and turbo !

[@softboneshardmiles]

OMG that steering wheel would drive me crazy

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

I finally fixed it 😂

[@jaggerjdm9787]

So cool to see it finally driving! You should do a cost breakdown of the swap

[@juniormohan67]

Great Job Boss.. Greetings from Brazil..

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Thank you! Brazil sick! Always wanted to surf there!

[@crx770]

hell yeah! this is badass. How bad is the exhaust in the cab from the hoodstack? I assume you can't really open the sunroof? I have my 1fz dumping out the quarter panel behind the cruise control motor and can't really roll down the passenger window but the cummins certainly flows more air. Are the axles still on stock internals or are you running chromoly?

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Surprisingly enough there is no coal coming into the cab! Of course if you open the sunroof or the passenger window yes you’ll get it it inside😂 but it’s a good trade off in my opinion. Axles are stock as of now…. Either going to go with 05+superduty dana 60s or chromolys in the current housings. Stock as of now and holding up to the hp/torque (so far 🤣🤠)

[@79series]

Is that exhaust pipe out the bonnet legal or would you get a defect from the police. Epic 80 series

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Lol here in Washington state (U.S.) we don’t have emissions tests to pass to register our vehicles so I don’t have to worry about it. I also don’t run around town rolling as much coal as I was in the video. I purchased a tuner so I can control how much fuel (power) I have. I might fabricate a full exhaust down the road.

[@TheShooter466]

how long does it take you to get to 60? are you on stock gears?

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Yes 4.10 gears sti- depends on how much fuel I give it. I’ll have to try timing it today and get back to you

[@garneymgroyala4232]

8:42 this is great assurance that the weight is not too big an issue.

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Believe me it’s been in the back of my head but yeah it’s been 9 months and haven’t had any issues. I’ll be trussing the front axle soon though since I want to be a little rowdy on the trails

[@garneymgroyala4232]

@@Austin_SaintOnge I can't wait to watch those videos.

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

I’ve got a pretty cool idea for the truss 🤓

[@YaderMartinez-ys1zv]

Yes people remenber that those truck came with turbo diesel here in central america and that diesel engine as a mecanic i tell you is real heavy too i dont think it will be too much weigth diferent maybe 100 o 150

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

@YaderMartinez-ys1zv exactly! And the way it’s centered down low with the transmission crossmember I don’t think it’s really an issue

[@codykennedy19]

What an amazing vehicle man I just subscribe to your channel I love the sound of a Cummins will you please see if you can do an extremely long ASMR video of you driving it and get on it a little more with the Excelerator and take it on the freeway because I love hearing that and if you can’t make it extremely long because those are my favorite type of videos I hope all is well with you man stay safe and have a great one

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Thank you! I’m right with you on the sound of Cummins. I’ve since sold this one but am working on another build and will have it up and running soon! I’ll be sure to just make a nice ASMR video after it’s finished!

[@codykennedy19]

@@Austin_SaintOnge OK brother I’ll look forward to it

[@abrahamnevarez5956]

Hey, what’s up with the tents? 😢

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

It’s a long story but essentially- the west coast is supporting living on the streets in tents and getting tax payer funded money to buy drugs on. So people have moved here from all over the country because they passed measure 110 which effectively decriminalizes all drugs including fentanyl and meth. I’m leaving in a couple months. What once was a beautiful part of the country is now destroyed.

[@ffrankenstein3]

How is the throttle response from 1000 to 2000 rpm in 3rd or 4th gears ?

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

It’s pretty jerky right now since I advanced it around 7 degrees I’m working on tuning the fuel down and boost up in order to level it out. But with 4.10 gears and 40s much peppier than the 1fz

[@ffrankenstein3]

[@ffrankenstein3]

What bhp is it now ?

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Theoretically the internals and fuel delivery is good for 500 hp according to power driven diesel. Since it’s awd it’ll eat some of that though. After I work out all the kinks I’m going to take it to English racing and have it dyno’d!

[@ffrankenstein3]

@austinstonge9033 right now is it around 200bhp ?

[@Austin_SaintOnge]

Nah I’d say it’s around 400whp at full fuel- no way to tell except for but dyno at the moment. Dyno runs coming soon!

[@ffrankenstein3]

@austinstonge9033 your run with it looks little sluggish?

@@ffrankenstein3 I have the afc live and have been messing around with tuning. I only gave it wide open throttle once or twice at full fuel and I can definitely tell you it’s not sluggish at all!
