as a bit of a "dieselgeek" myself - I must say that was flippin sweet!

I do see a bit of an issue with the black smoke at the line however - especially if the winds are behind you....

how the heck did the guy in the rail see the lights coming down.... or the track in front of him???

I've loved 8V Detroits since I was a little kid. There used to be a local oil company that ran past my house a few times a day. They ran mid-70's Kenworth W900 tankers that had 8V71's. Every time one of them would drive past, I'd stop what ever I was doing and listen to them run up through the gears.

My family had a heavy truck shop in west texas in the 80's.We used to build hotrod over the road trucks for some of the guys hauling pipe crosscountry.My favorite one was a silver "92" series that was blown and turbocharged.We over drove the blower ,added a larger turbo ,changed pistons and injectors ,degreed the cam and changed the back half of the 13 speed to have a set of od+ gears.this was in a cabover international.I roadtested it and got it over 100mph bobtailing very quickly.That was damn scary.The owner came back a couple of months later for the overhead adjustment and told us that he had outran a hiway patrol in new mexico with a full load of pipe.That truck was capable of 120+ loaded.Hows that for nuts?BTW I was 16 and building these for people and roadtesting them.

A friend of mine had an cabover pete, with a silver 92 that was built by Penske racing. You could always pick out Daves
Pete, it had to 2 intake stacks on one side, and 2 exhaust stacks on the other. That truck did great Burnouts and would run over a 100 loaded dont ask how I know. ;D
