A wife that embraces your weirdness....an actual blessing from god.

The things a man finds on YouTube while on the toilet never cease to amaze me. I've heard.

Hurry up kids you're going to miss the bus. No mom, that's just the Duke of Detroit!!!!

I used to work for Detroit Diesel here in Australia during the 80's. They handled the Allison Transmission side of things as well. I remember all the various 2-stroke variations....& this little video brought it all flooding back - wow 😉👍

My dad had a 3 cyl Detroit in an International pick-up. Woke up the entire neighborhood every morning at 6am. Luckily, they needed up anyway.

It's got three cylinders, uses them all.
It's got overdrive, just won't

A true "Wile Coyote" set-up, and gets 50mpg. Congrats dude.

[bagelboy]

I never get tired of hearing those screamin' Detroits.

Mad Max would have loved this machine.

Who knew that a three cylinder diesel would sound so smooth? 🎉

I wanted to hate this car, but man, you're an awesome guy & you created a monster! I'm a Mopar purist at heart, but this engine swap is intense. Great work!

My god. I don't know how I ended up at this video at nearly 5am but I am so glad I did. This thing is incredible!

[jistuart]

I love this! Definitely a unique conversion, and sounds great with the screaming jimmy up front. 25mpg straight up isn’t bad at all for a 70 Roadrunner with a two cycle engine

[thequadzillaking]

See those front tires compressed into the earth!! Awesome Build.

[davevoorhees]

Jon! I appreciate the way you started this video! God has indeed blessed you, I too feel the exact same way. May the Lord bless and keep you, and make His face to shine on you!

[craiglizt]

Amazing car and amazing job, sir.

Praise God.

[kentuckyblugrass]

That is one of the best "Frankenstein'd" cars I've ever seen. This and the "Hondaru" are incredible creations.👊

[gedavids]

Props for doing what makes you happy, even if most people think it’s silly.

[ATomRileyA]

Great swap, sounds awesome love those Detroit Diesels.

impressive engine swap and such great mileage.. good use of oil for fuel. turbo and 3 times size of injectors..200 HP.. moves the roadrunner along nicely. well done Jon!
I think that you've started something here.. I am thinking along same direction for one of my ole muscle cars, which I could not afford to run due to price of guzzloline. thanks for sharing your solid straight up classic one of a kind!
