1940s technology that refuses to quit. A true American torque beast. My favorite truck tractor engine by far. Miss these iron beasts on the road. It was great as a child in the early 80s to hear each tractor fill US interstates with beautiful noise. Detroit Diesel 2 strokers will always be a part of American history as the work horse that built this nation.

When I was a kid, the town I lived in had a fleet of 6v92 generals. I could hear those things all the way across town. Everytime one would go down the road I would run inside and hide. And when they were filling in the swamp behind the house using OUR driveway ... my god that was bad. Now I cant get enough of the sound.

Bloody better than some 4 stroke engines, ie Cummins - but you do have to look after them a bit more! Running the correct lubricating oil is VERY important! They can gunk up with sludge, which is 90% carbon! They have to be de-coked regularly by hauling a heavy load for a few hours - this avoids the sludgig up of everything, which results in a very costly rebuild!
