Ah the Detroits , i can tell you never ran much powered by a 2 stroke . In my youth i worked for a large construction company that had every piece of equipment made to move dirt lift heavy iron and lay down roads sewer line , water lines and gas, build bridges and dams . and we had alot of DETROIT powered from 2 cylinders on up to the V 12's . And each one had multiple exhaust stacks ADDED a 4 cylinder woul have TWO 2 -71 manifolds and TWO straight pipes a 6 cylinder would have THREE 2-71 exhaust manifolds with STRAIGHT pipes a V 12 had four 3 -71 manifolds and four pipes . Spent many days running a Le Tornenu Model C and D scraper / Pan setting about two or three feet away from the exhaust pipes with those screaming engines that were turned up hopped up , if it came from the factory with the two valve head it now had the four valve head blower over drive and nothing less the N 70 Brown tag injectors , if it was factory set at 2150 it was now screaming a 2450 to 2650 . All shovels and cranes were Detroit powered , spend a day in the house of and old 22 B Bucyres or what ever one you may be running for that day . Then spend a day on a D 8 high out put with twin stacks pulling a 20 yd scraper . Now today i so enjoy the ringing in my ears .

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
