Bro that blower has a sound all of its own don't it. Absolutely loved it. Never thought a Japanese diesel could sound so good. I have never heard of a 5 cylinder Nissan diesel, although the Hino I'm currently I currently drive at the moment has a 5 cyl diesel in it. I bet you want to keep it in the truck now don't you? 😂. Keep'em comin Steve, I enjoy watching your videos...

[@conmanumber1]

Americans and English have a history of even number cylinder engines which are rough running in general. The Germans and some other Europeans prefer odd number cylinders as they are smoother running but however the American and British due use 3 cylinders in smaller diesels like Massey Fergusons 35x, 135, Ford 3000, 4000 tractors etc Hey now if you are into 2 strokes then the early 1970's Suzuki jeep type mini 4wd had 2 strokes which would be pretty interesting as they are now very rare.

[@jamesfrench7299]

Also the Suzuki Carry micro vans with tiny wheel rims no more than 11". I've been in one and it seemed to really pull hard for sub 500cc. A Japanese diesel I enjoy is the Hino 13 litre used in their CM buses. They have a beefy note to them which Japanese trucks usually don't possess. I always had a soft spot for the once ubiquitous Isuzu Forward. Lovely when they reach that high revs.

@@stevesplacedownunder How much does a UD6 2 stroke cost? the turboes ones were nice. i got a turbo 8v92 detroit 2 stroke out back, i fill and run BRP XD-100 2 stroke oil i get from walmart. She does pretty good on that. The UD v8 was 600 CID and 345 HP N/A and much more with turbo.

Sounds awesome and really unique as most KZbin channels I see are all American and I've never seen one of these motors on any of them. What a cool old truck

[@stevesplacedownunder]

Hi mate thank you. I don’t think many made it to the USA. Which is good to have something different

[@trevorward7927]

I like the International content, weve still got an old Transtar with a tipper on the back working everyday. It almost keeps up with the newer Westernstars and im looking ford to some Louisville content, we used to run 2 Louisville agitators about 20 years ago.

[@stevesplacedownunder]

Thank you for the feedback mate. I love those transtars. I have 3 here at the moment, still haven’t got a 4200 though. Maybe one day. Fantastic mate I’m sure the blokes like driving it too. The Ford is now in the shed. Will do a Patreon video of a walk around it a bit later.

I must also add with the muffler on the blower has a distinctive whine when up or down shifting

That thing straight piped would sound great going down the road. (On camera is does sound very similar to a open pipe detroit) Cool little engine ive never heard of here in the US
