Your the man for the old detroit diesel 2 stroke. Not to many on YouTube but I have learned a lot by watching your guys videos. I got my self a 1979 4-53 T that'i am going to do a engine swap on a 1992 gmc topkick c6000 with the 366 i will make a you tube video on the project.

the upgrade on your dyno instruments would be a real help to understand what's going on. I was embarrassed to ask about that. Thought I was the only one not getting it. This 4-53 power add on mix and match series is gonna be real interesting for me. If you remember I commented a long while ago about this old Jimmy mechanic I ran across 25 years ago who told me of his experience with built US military 4-53s used in armored vehicle applications that were putting out amazing horsepower. Of course in those situations there's no constraints on what you do. I'm really liking it. Thanks!

Lots of power adders to test out. That lb7 intercooler fits up nice. Banks says the intercooler adds as much power as a turbo, so let's find out. 🤷

Thanks for the fill in on your dyno. Was curious on it. Will be interesting to see results on your injector rework.

I've not seen one of these injectors apart before, so that will be interesting. Are you going to do a video of the blower rebuild, too? Blowers and injectors were something we bought as rebuilt units.

amazing, yes I really enjoyed the dyno work out, it's running great and making almost the same torque as my 1st gen 5.9 cummins (400 ft lb)
unbelievable lol, the fine tuning will make it scream even more lol, can't wait!

Would be interesting if you came up with some kind of common rail or DDEC style injection. I don't know much about these other than what I've read online, but I've seen a few channels who've done some like that with good results. Probably not cheap, and lots of fab work tho.

I don't know how easy or hard it is now to find parts for those engines now. Back in the day we had a few 3 and 6 cylinder Detroits at the shop waiting to be rebuilt when needed. We got parts from Stewart & Stevenson and kept liner kits on the shelf. They didn't like to be lugged very long or they would pull a sleeve.

It's good that you've got spare parts to use and experiment with. I would guess they aren't as easy to get as they were in the early 80's, but you've given the old girl new life again.

I was just wondering if the other businesses in the industrial park get perturbed when you got the two strokes out working, good idea on muffler…they are obnoxiously loud straight piped. Any chance of you running a blower bypass to the air box cover on the other side like you have on your super duty? I’m intrigued to see what type of benefit it truly has, I’d speculate its advantages…

Looking forward to the injector episode as well. My diamond in the rough 4-53n has 2 c50 and 2 N50 injectors and both the C's were stuck. The worst one now freed and uninstalled has just enough play in the spring that if i rotate the spring correctly i can shake the retainer pin out with any spring compression and i am afraid to run it like that. I guess that if there was always some compression on the spring when it is installed it might be ok ....but for now it is holding me back

You should try and do a all out horse power no matter the smoke just to see what you can get for horse power/torque out put...

It should be easy to rig up an engine exhaust system through thru your stove chimney. You could then run your engines in the shop and not disturb the neighbors.
