Thank you I have owned this trucks since 96 and I thought I could shift but a lot of people are telling me that I can't I don't know everybody has an opinions.. thx
FLORIDA LIFE CLIPS no man you shift just like me. My dad taught me when I was 8. Alot of younger people my age say I shift weaird but alot of older people always ask when I learnt because I drive like them. So keep doing what your doing everyone has their own way and nice truck.
i know im late but do you have the factory dual mass? i was taught on a 460,4:10s zf-5. i bought my 94.5 stroker for 3500 in 2011. i dont run 2nd gear as hard as you do, but my is more like a harley..30mph in over drive...all you hear is turbo
I recognize that pedal squeak anywhere. It's the hydraulic cylinder. Must be a southbend? Went thru 3 sets before I switched to valair. Smooth and quiet now
I just read every comment and people repeatedly said you can't shift which isn't true, you shift just fine. If you ain't grinding gears you're shifting right
Yeah I have a 84 95 With a 95 front end and 7.3 with the ZR5 Is 3" downpipe diamond downpipe To 4" to 5" to 6" Dozer pipe Right out the back Window straight piped the whole way
I had a 5 in exhaust on my 94.5 but it got totaled so the 5 in is in the barn till next year where ill get it on my 97 i bought to replace it. Miss the growl. went from zf5 to e40d
Yeah, my e40d has 367k on it and it kinda lacks the power that a manual might have. I wish I had a manual in it. I hate my e40d, but I’m 16 so I can’t afford a zf5 conversion quite yet. I’m really wanting to do it in the future.
Is there a reason for letting the RPMs drop damn near to idle before you let the clutch back out again? Or is it just your style of shifting? Either way nice sounding truck.
I just got myself a 7.3 and I would love to straight pipe it. But I plan on doing some long hauls with it and I'm not sure if the drone in the cab would get annoying after 6+ hours of driving down the freeway. How would you say the drone is, cause I know videos don't always do things justice.
As long as the pipe is sticking straight up in the air or your straight pipe it all the way to the back of the truck like it originally came out of the factory you won't have a problem. If you dump it on the ground near the cab you're going to hear it's going to echo it crazy
Such supidity can be criticize at the same time saying whether its powerstroke or not, because mostly everyone of us know its sound in comparison to an idi, so why act like that?
I have a question. I want to get more into trucks and I want a manual 7.3. I’ve seen some that are 5 speed and some that are 5 but have an extra thing labeled “L” (low) on the shifter. What is that for and what does that mean for the truck?
My truck doesn't whistle at idle like yours. Was there a big difference between the stack vs just a straight pipe. Also does yours lope at start up too?
You should get your injectors tested (especially you have cold starting issues) because your spool valves in the injectors are getting worn out unless it’s At or below freezing then it’s normal
@@FLORIDALIFECLIPS I was trying to mean if back then when in the late 90's the 7.3s were around, if straightpiping or modifing a stock 7.3 like installing better turbo, or tuner was around, but maybe there might not be an accurate answer?
@@Miguel_Cam To answer your question around my neck of the woods, Ford diesel country, that squished looking restrictive down pipe was the first thing to go on brand new trucks and I must add, what do you mean when the 7.3 were around ?, a good most still are and motoring right on past many failed attempts to build a decent diesel pickup since.
Hoss Paschal No problem it's very easy to do and cheap the most expensive thing you're gonna run into is buying the stack if you're handy With a Welder Weld one up like I did.
One Love Everybody shifts differently. I don’t care that you drive an 18 speed and get paid to shift. I haul grain on my farm all the time with an 18 speed, one of my trucks being a twin stick. And I’m also a semi truck mechanic at my second job. But that doesn’t give me the right to be a cocky asshole and judge everybody else’s shifting techniques. There’s more than one way to skin a cat.
You must be a swift driver, here is a tip for you Swing Wide It's a Fucking Trailer. Fucking duchebag steering wheel holder, you don't float a syncronized transmission dumb fuck. Your not even supposed to float a truck transmission, your supposed to double clutch, now it's not terrible if you float if you know what your doing but I'm sure you don't since you point out that people are doing something wrong when they are actually right.
Your one of the first people on UA-cam that can actually shift correctly.

Lol my dads Honda S2000 has a degrading synchro in 2nd. My shifting from 1st to 2nd sounds just like this.
Agreed guy shifts like my dad and he’s drove a manual everyday for the last 50 years.
That's one of the greatest sound an engine can make.. that turbo man... great sound..
The 7.3 definitely one of my favorite sounding Diesels they got such a unique sound to them am I right or wrong
Definitely right it's so weird it sounds so similar to my lb7 duramax just less turbo haha
People think I’m crazy but I love the sound of a 6.0 but a 7.3 hits different and I think sounds better especially when the turbo barks
The old ones all have a uniqueness to them. Dodge, Ford, Gm
Definitely right
Agreed, only better is a cammed 6nz CAT but of course that's a different beast all together.
I got a 95 7.3 with a ZF5 a few months back and I could not be happier it is the best daily driver I’ve ever had amazing trucks
I’m thinking about getting one too. How is the mpg’s?
badass rig. my neighbor has an OBS with a 7.3 and a ZF5 just like this and his clutch pedal squeaks too on return.
Jamison Muckstadt wd40 fixes it
Sounds like a Mack E9 Series beautiful
Just bought a well maintained 96ps with a stick and straight pipe. I dont wanna beat on it but damn shifting over 2500 sounds so good.
Thanks for the ride! 😁
Sounds great man!
Damn that is a sweet ass sounding truck
Wow that just sounds perfect
First guy on UA-cam who dosent speed shift and redline his straight piped manny diesel
I respect and love my trucks too much to put them through hell
Lol the infamous ford clutch pedal squeak my dads 87 f350 always does it
Is there any way to get rid of it ?😂
@@ordinarygamer1353 no idea lol I never looked into it
@@ordinarygamer1353wd40 should get rid of the squeak
Sounds amazing 🤩
you can shift any way you like, it doesnt matter if its not grinding!
I recognize that pedal squeak anywhere. It's the hydraulic cylinder. Must be a southbend? Went thru 3 sets before I switched to valair. Smooth and quiet now
Yeah she squeaks she shakes she's load and she's old it's OK Had her since 96
Damn that sounds sweet
+BRADY SCHROEDER THANKS!
I just read every comment and people repeatedly said you can't shift which isn't true, you shift just fine. If you ain't grinding gears you're shifting right
Yeah I’m gonna need you to drive around and record for about 6 hours thanks 👌
that sounds sweeeet do you have a stack ? if so how do you like it
Yeah I have a 84 95 With a 95 front end and 7.3 with the ZR5 Is 3" downpipe diamond downpipe To 4" to 5" to 6" Dozer pipe Right out the back Window straight piped the whole way
Man it sounds good
This is the one and only time where 5 inches is enough. Lol
I had a 5 in exhaust on my 94.5 but it got totaled so the 5 in is in the barn till next year where ill get it on my 97 i bought to replace it. Miss the growl. went from zf5 to e40d
My e4od is treating me well. I scaled 22k going to a tractor show
Yeah, my e40d has 367k on it and it kinda lacks the power that a manual might have. I wish I had a manual in it. I hate my e40d, but I’m 16 so I can’t afford a zf5 conversion quite yet. I’m really wanting to do it in the future.
Nice video I subbed too. I wish this video was longer tho but I’m satisfied with it
Is there a reason for letting the RPMs drop damn near to idle before you let the clutch back out again? Or is it just your style of shifting? Either way nice sounding truck.
I'm using a single mass ceramic heavy duty clutch so I have to be very gentle
Oh I got you, thanks for the response :)
love it 😮😊
by engine sound he sifted late from 3rd to 4th..i only have a turbo down pipe in mine but can easily do 35mph in overdrive with 4:10 rears
That’s where I keep my can
Is that a custom shift knob? If so where did you get it from? I’ve been looking all over the place for one!
I believe I got it off Amazon long time ago

If you dump it on the ground near the cab you're going to hear it's going to echo it crazy
Forgive the probably stupid comment but is this an IDI or a Powerstroke? I'm sure it's a Powerstroke but I can't tell for certain.
Powerstroke
Power stroke but i have both i own 3 7.3
Who are you referring.
Such supidity can be criticize at the same time saying whether its powerstroke or not, because mostly everyone of us know its sound in comparison to an idi, so why act like that?

law gears are usually for starting off with a trailer or on a hill to get the most amount of torque possible.
Zf5 and zf6. The newer body style that goes L-1-2-3-4-5 is the ZF6
Turbo sounds sweat!!!
My truck doesn't whistle at idle like yours. Was there a big difference between the stack vs just a straight pipe. Also does yours lope at start up too?
There's a huge difference in how loud it is now performance wise no and
The loop part not really.
You should get your injectors tested (especially you have cold starting issues) because your spool valves in the injectors are getting worn out unless it’s At or below freezing then it’s normal
Is this this the stock turbo? I also have a 7.3 but it seems like your turbo spools much sooner than mine, maybe that's the straight pipe though.
Yes it's stock
@@FLORIDALIFECLIPS huh, makes me wonder if I have an exhaust leak. Where does your boost start coming in?
@@Akya2120 I know I have an exhaust leak on mine
Was it popular for people to straight pipe their diesel trucks back 20+ years ago?
I have no clue my friend
ahhhh darn. Those would've been the days, plenty of good sounding diesels (better than todays hair dryer turbos) and all legal
What year is your OBS? Mine is a ‘95.
96
@@FLORIDALIFECLIPS nice.
Was it already common to straight pipe a 7.3 powerstroke in the mid and late 90's
Sorry I don't understand are you asking me a question or you making a statement?

Whats your exhaust set up
Can u do more vids on this truck
I would but I backed up with my door open and fucked up my door and fender 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
So the truck is for sale now
@@FLORIDALIFECLIPS I'll buy it!!!!
what exhaust set up do you have?
Hoss Paschal Straight pipe then I came up through the bed to 8" exhaust stack
Ah ok, sounds awesome buddy, I've been wanting to stack my truck, I'm getting tired of just the 4in straight pipe lol. Thanks for the reply man!
Hoss Paschal No problem it's very easy to do and cheap the most expensive thing you're gonna run into is buying the stack if you're handy With a Welder Weld one up like I did.
Idi or powerstroke?
joel Stewart Powerstroke
5 inch?
5 inch???
FLORIDA LIFE CLIPS is the straight pipe 5 inches
Roals coal?
Yes
I watch these vids and none of u can shift
One Love Everybody's curious when will you be to posting your video??
FLORIDA LIFE CLIPS I drive trucks for a living, ever float a non synchro 18 speed a few million miles? No? I dont need a vid, I get paid to shift
