2 Stroke Detroit swapped duramax.

I was just at a local shop and one of the employees built this gem. It has a detroit 453 and a Allison transmission.

That's awesome!! :woott:

It actually looks halfway good in there lol.

Other than why not, why? They're definitely cool but isn't that a big step down in power unless it's been massaged?

Its been tweaked but it was definitely more of a why not than a why. Lol. Sounds cool, thats for sure!

I don't get it... Smooth and relatively quiet duramax motor to that loud ass clanky pos. I've worked on them, that would be my last choice. That Detroit would have been better in a classic truck

Truck was originally gas probably

Heres some more info I found on it. Wasn't to hard to google as it's an oddball with the ddec setup on it.

Ok maybe, but that 6.0 is still better than that pos

Well obviously no one would build that for a long trip DD, unless they are deaf and patient, but either way is cool as shit, but I would have dropped a 6 speed manual in it, personal preference.

Sweet! I'm not gonna thrash someone for being different, I was more curious than anything. To each their own.

I actually like it. Everyone has a LS powered vehicle, and most of them are faster than whatever you end up building. Why not build something different, even if it is impractical? I'm all about projects like this!

I hate it..... only cause it's not the 8v or 12v in there. God damn do those motors sounds bad ass straight pipped

 

[WVRigrat05]

Those little 4 bangers sound like a pissed off house cat with 5" straight pipe. We had an old Peabody pump with a 4v-53 at the Rig to pump water from the creek to the Rig and you could hear that bastard over a mile away echoing through the holler.
