    353 detroit diesel

    Goat has a seperate system. It has it's own coil, air compressor and spark plug. Fuel pressure is derived from the engines main fuel pump as the engine is turned by the starter. All of this is controled by an electric solenoid controling the flow of fuel through a little atomizer.

    Safe road speed & licensing?

    Mine is licensed for the road here in Colorado. I drive it 55mph with out a problem. Drove it from Denver to Kansas City, in convoy, at 45, Came back home at 55, no problem. Mainly because that's what it was built to do. I have had it twenty + years and the engine is original.

    The cab rebuild!

    I had a hard top, but, being 6'8" tall it was the first thing to go. All that is left is the original sill rails, which I took off and saved. I do have a new surf shield (Marine).

    The cab rebuild!

    If you're not going to install a hard top you can remove the sill at each entry, makes it a lot easier getting in and out.

    gamma goat parts cross reference

    There are very few cross-overs for the Goat. Engine is similar but has an aluminum block. Trans is a GM truck. No one knows, for sure, what the transfer case is from. It is a special build from England. The rear tractor gear box/diff is a one of a kind, as is the steering box, both front and...

    3 53 detroit rods bent and broken?

    High RPMs for sure.....This is a hellish stout engine! The weak point, aside from improper maint., is the valve train.

    Why 2650rpm max?

    This is some great reading. The one thing I see that is not considered enough is balance. These engines (Military) are assembled from premanufactured parts. They (the parts) are manufactured to a specific standard, and it is assumed that they will be OK when put to work. Once the engine is...

    Why 2650rpm max?

    I'll bet if you checked the tach with a known rev indicator you'll find it's wrong. The spring looses it's strength over the years.

    3-53 goat power plant where are they?

    That's got to be the first or one of only a few Goats ever to be painted "sand" BTW White Owel has take-out 353 aluminum block engines for $1750 each. (With fresh paint) www.whiteowl.com

    Installing a Tachometer!

    If you'll look at the 353 above the bell housing on the right side, slightly left and above the fuel pump, there is a little port covered by a two bolt cover. Guess what, that's a tach port.
