At 18.6 liters, this engine is anemic compared to smaller displacement Cats, Detroit and Cummins. 760hp/2200tq sounds impressive on paper but little 12. 7 Detroits are capable with an ECM tune, of 625hp/2150tq. 6nz Cats with a good ECM tune will outperform this engine, and do it with almost 2.5 liters less displacement.
@@TheRoadhammer379 Yes with today's common rail diesels it is easy to make big power. But it is also easy to crank this thing up with bigger injectors and turbos. The Detroit is still a mainstay in tractor pulling because the engine is so robust. Also keep in mind Detroit's were all made for continuous full power output so they could be used as generator stations, water pumps or marine engines. So the output may look low by today's standards but they are incredibly durable even today and they were plenty powerful back in their day.
That truck is a classic design of the 60's and 70's seen in logging trucks. I worked as a diesel mechanic for an excavation company in the 70's and most of the fleet were cabover Kenworth 12 wheeler dump trucks and everyone was powered by 6-71 inline 6 Detroit Diesel. They were loud and oily, when it was not the motor leaking, it was the hydraulic system. I've seen runaway DD engines, it takes guts to slip under the cab to close the air intake trap. They were prone to running backward also when the stop the engine did not work and we had to stall the motor with the clutch. They were equipped with air starters, very loud and not reliable in winter. We also had a dozen of Mack B-81, B-61 and a towing based on a Mack DMM800 6X6 that I was operator of for 2 years, best time ever covering the fleet for breakdown. I have been retired for a while now and I still have that diesel smell tingling my nostrils, will it ever go away.
You know ,,,those Detroit's run backwards you had 13 reverse gears and one forward ,,,lol they would intake through the exhaust and stink coming out through the old oil breathers ,,,,that's why they used the old Detroit's in boats because one engine turned to the right and one turned to the left,,,coast guard boats used them for years
@@briananderson3801 That was to eliminate the expense of a reversing gear assembly on one prop shaft. If you have both props spinning the same direction, the boat won't sit level in the water when under power.
My son got my 12 valve cummins running backwards on the boat launch once. I didnt think it was possible with a 4 stroke. He got out and refused to ever drive it again.....hahaha

I drove a 16v71 in a r50 Euclid . That engine would turn 3500 rpms and when you got out at the end of the day it felt like the sound went right through you . To this day I believe that sound effected your central nervous system as the exhaust just came right out of the hood . The better ones would divert the exhaust through the dump body but not mine .
Heh heh, the 16V71's were governed at 2100 actually (might have *sounded* like 3500, since they're 2 stroke), but they really didn't turn very fast to produce between 630 and 760 hp.😉
I used to run 16V's and 12V' in Logging yarders up to 120' Towers and I agree the sound and vibration would go right through you. Had to wear earplugs under earmuffs but man when you lit into a big heavy drag coming up a mountain from 2000' feet below and 100,000 lb line pull it was some awesome feeling. Dangerous as hell if something broke though which it often did.
@@danw1955 LOL !!! I sat on a milk crate for a seat . The exhaust came right out of the hood no muffler . And because I was a young know it all I never wore ear protection and that's why to this day as I am writing this and I am 66 years old my ears still ring , SIGH
My dad took me everywhere u could drive to in the u.s. in the cab of a old peterbilt with a Detroit in it. I have flashbacks to this day when I hear on. Just friggin awesome
last time i saw one of these, the smoke escaped and it got a brand new inspection hole in one of the blocks. nice to see one that works properly! :) love the sound! my neighbours would also love it!
Hayes, an unreal tough truck brand. Then top if off with 18 liters of JADE GRENADE... Superb capture, I thought i recognize that truck from Saskatchewan.
This HD model was apparently custom built in someone's shop, as the 16V-71 Detroit Diesel was available on the WHDX(wide) model w/ offset cab. The 16V was big power back then w/ 636 h.p. This truck has no hood sides to accomodate the 2 turbos and exhaust stacks out the back of the cab. On the offset cab models the dual exhaust w/ be on the passenger side back of cab.
I met him at talked to the old guy that built it and is seen driving in the video, I saw the truck too, it’s huge. He said the front half is a Hayes, the engine is from a generator, the back half is the back half of a kenworth (including the rear ends). The engine compartment had to be stretched 2 full feet to fit that Detroit. He did everything himself including welding the two trucks together. He drove rigs for 58 years I think he said, just recently retired, and still drives em for fun. He trailers it around all of North America for shows. I saw it in Canada
DailyDieselDose I remember, that book was huge! I wish I had the time to sit down and look through it cover to cover. I strive to become like the old gentlemen who owns the truck, really cool guy
What a beast! What’s crazy is that you can get the same performance out of a tuned X-15 Cummins or a modern Detroit DD-16, both inline 6-cylinders, as you could a V-16 Detroit. One things for sure though, no modern motor comes anywhere close to as awesome sounding as these old two-stroke Detroit’s.
True but, an ISX or DD16 turnt that tight won't be around 50 years later like this. Also, you could do an in frame on one of these with a tool box that could be carried by one man. That's why an ISB in a Ram 3500 is almost 400 HP and 1000ft lbs. In a class six truck, they're 300/750. However, their B90 is 1M miles. The million mile 5.9/6.7 in a 3/4-1 ton aren't running 90 PSI boost.
no you can't lol, its impossible. Every cylinder fires per rotation of the crank, 4 strokes suck at making power. A 14L 12v71 stock makes 425hp yet a 14L Big Cam cummins makes 350hp with a turbo lol and is actually a slightly bigger engine!
This Looks like a 16V71T that could have a horse power rating of 700 hp and more torque than the 16V71. The 16V71 could have a rating of 636 horsepower. Great video!
Gotta love the old 2 stroke Detroit's this bad ass truck got to v8 Detroit's bolted together worked on alot of these the navy uses them to run generators on the ships i bet that bad boy pulls like a freight train got a old Peterbilt that was my dads truck has the 8v71T in it and now im in the process of restoring it and keeping it as a family heirloom my dad love this truck more than my mom i think lol

A lot of folks don't realize that some of the most heavy duty truck chassis came out of British Columbia Canada, Hayes, Pacific, Western Star (original plant was Kelowna BC ,Freighliner Canada, Canadian Kenworth........all of them NAFTA'd out of existence
2 stroke life: they slobber and mark their territory, have two throttle positions where they’re happy and convert fuel to noise very well. Miss them. I only see 15-20 a year these days.
Would have loved to see more in detail on that same truck. Inside the cab under the hood under cab long bed frame rails. It would have been nice Food For Thought next time.
You're actually quite wrong. There was the N(natural aspiration), T for turbo, TA was turbo aftercooled. There was a TTA designation but it was not meant as twin turbo, it denoted Tailored Torque Aftercooled aka Fuel Squeezer.
Good for you Rosemarie! Every time I mention "prime mover"; people look at me funny! That's exactly what it is! Like when I use the term "traction plant", that's a tractor! 😅
kmcwhq it’s a UA-cam video with no narration. The truck could have shut off 2 minutes before he started it, though the the blue smoke from a DD 2 stroke suggests it hadn’t been run up enough to clear it.
@@funone8716 ehh it's effy we had a pump as soon as it read oil pressure we push ours to 2,250rpm cold or hot you'd think it will damage it but running 10hrs a day everyday for years and years it starts like new runs like new they like abuse unlike other diesels
@Keaton Chatenay The organizations doing that can also afford to replace one when it pops from abuse. They can take it, but for how long. They used to do that with Fire trucks as well.
@@stevegould1730 N is naturally aspirated. But still relied on the blower for scavaging. T had a turbo (still fed into the blower inlet) that would actually create some boost and increase output. TA was turbo with after cooling to decrease charge air temperature.

Sweet! Love the twin turbos
I drive Detroit powered trucks at the airport I work at this dam thing is as bad ass as it can possibly get
18 liters of vintage 2 stroke diesels! My g fuel economy estimate is 3 mpg if diesel fuel! Towing capacity is 150,000!
Nice truck great sounding lump it's running.looks similar to a Pacific p12 or p16
Used to maintain those engines in the 85ton terex dumpers. Music to your ears!
Jakes would sound amazing on that thing.
Nothing like revving the piss out of a cold motor...
You can still hear Detroit Diesel engines at night in NYC. Either generators or older municipal vehicles.
Most manufacturers: you don't need a 16v71 in a truck, that is silly. Those are for boats.
Hayes: lol amateurs
NOW THATS ONE BAD ASS PRIME MOVER
Good for you Rosemarie! Every time I mention "prime mover"; people look at me funny!
That's exactly what it is!
Like when I use the term "traction plant", that's a tractor! 😅
What a FRIGGIN BEAST.😲👍🏻👌🏻🔥
Damn she sounds good sounds like a lot of power
And to think...there are those who say cows are letting out too many emissions....long live the Detroit’s!
Such a beautiful truck !!
What a beautiful Machine"With Heavy Duty Leafspring!!Suspension!
sounds like its going to take off!! awesome
right right I bet it would pull the gates of he'll at least 3inc
They actually put the 16v in trucks holy crap I thought it was only the 12v's.
This was an off road logging truck, I haven't seen a 16v71 in a highway truck.
Nice truck. Dude's not showing it any mercy on startup, that's for sure.
kmcwhq it’s a UA-cam video with no narration. The truck could have shut off 2 minutes before he started it, though the the blue smoke from a DD 2 stroke suggests it hadn’t been run up enough to clear it.
@@jimmyaber5920 The blue smoke suggests its cold and he should keep his foot out of it
@@funone8716 ehh it's effy we had a pump as soon as it read oil pressure we push ours to 2,250rpm cold or hot you'd think it will damage it but running 10hrs a day everyday for years and years it starts like new runs like new they like abuse unlike other diesels
detroits stop working if you show em any mercy!
@Keaton Chatenay The organizations doing that can also afford to replace one when it pops from abuse. They can take it, but for how long. They used to do that with Fire trucks as well.
16v71 = 635HP of pure noise
Looks like Hayes began with an engine and built the truck around it.
Converting diesel fuel to noise very nicely, even better then the buzzin dozin.
I know I'm splitting hairs, but wouldn't this particular Detroit Diesel engine be classified as a 16V71T?Great channel. Thank you.
M Jones turbo. So yes.
Maybe even 16v71 TA. There were N, T and TA versions.
TheRoadhammer379 What does the N and TA stand for?
@@stevegould1730 N is naturally aspirated. But still relied on the blower for scavaging.
T had a turbo (still fed into the blower inlet) that would actually create some boost and increase output.
TA was turbo with after cooling to decrease charge air temperature.
Man he didn't give it a chance from the start
Two 318s bolted together. Lol. Probably has a 4 & 6. Gear for every occasion. Nice !!
Nothing better than a Detroit! P.s Those tires are small as...
That's what I was thinking. 22s? That beast needs way more rubber than that. And drive faster than 55
@@jimmychambers1501 I couldn't imagine faster than 55 That things a Death Trap.
Oh that engine got a truck!
Man listen'n to her rev up made me wanna do my best Jim Carry hip dance move!
Sure'd like a loaded pulling video of it.
One heck of a air compressor.
starts it and instantly wails on it. gota luv it
Man I want a Hayes so bad
Can you smeellllllllllll what that truck is polluting!!! Lmfao shits bad ass
That's beautiful ❤️
I'll bet that pulled some logs in it's day.
OMG!: Gorgeous symphony!!.. 😍
she’s even a trailer queen!
That rig was a long way from home though... British Columbia to Reno Nevada would be a long and deafening ride lol
Awesome truck
Love it!
Beautiful tractor. What gearbox is behind that massive engine & how many horsepower does it develope?
Wow, one third of the length is engine. So, this is what a Sherman Tank looks like on the highway.
This truck was made to pull hell off its' hinges.
ITS 2AM AND IM LISTENING TO OLD 2 STROKE DETROITS!!!
Nothin like a real diesel for a change this beats any new diesel out there just on quality and sound
