Detroit 4-53T Is Back On The Road.:)

Quick video showing the finished swap. I do need to fix my throttle issues to make the transmission shift nicely. Going back in the shop to address those issues.

This is a FANTASTIC build! Good for you my man. I'm jealous. Would much rather have a Detroit than a junk corn binder.

I see what you mean, that my friend is outstanding work you did, it looks like a factory install, very neat and tidy under the hood, the truck looks and sounds great.

Glad to see your progress. Sounds great. Wish I was closer would like to see it in person.

Great videos, I will catch up on your other ones. Youtube needs more like this, keep posting!

I love watching your progress! Congrats on building one fine rig. And thank you for posting it here for us to enjoy.

I hope you have the emergency shut off hooked up. Anything goes wrong, and it starts to run away, you will wish you did. Also, after listening to that oil throwing, screaming paperweight for a couple of hours, you might rethink installing that in anything.

Those silver grills look really dang good! I wonder if a signal conditioner from Dakota Digital could help your ailing TPS. It would allow you to perhaps scale the movement to correspond with values the computer likes and how the Detroit revs and takes on load. Just a thought. Cheers Mr 310!

Nice clean installation. New subscriber and love the Detroit engines, have a couple but just too big to fit into the old Willys Jeep vehicles that I work on. Just got a very large generator powered with a 4-53T, sitting for a while but hopefully will be up and running soon. Check out my channel you might find it as interesting as yours.

Of course have to put a GM engine in a Ford lol

Pretty unique build. 👍 love the ‘scremmin Jimmy’ with ‘Jakes’. Looks like you’ve shoe-horned that engine in. Minor issues aside, damn fine work!
