Strait pipe

[RON F]

I want to make a strait pipe for my 60 how thick should the wall be to get a deep throaty sound?

Not a John Deere guy, but I doubt the thickness will make much difference in the sound produced in the relatively short distance it is passing through a stack. Regular 16 gauge exhaust tubing will do just fine. A liking for the sound of a 2 cylinder Deere must be an acquired affection. In my opinion a “deep throaty sound” comes from a CAT 3408 V8.

In my humble experience diameter makes for deeper exhaust sound so look for something that just allows you to get the bolts in the flange.

2 1/2 chrome exhaust tip for a pick up nothing smaller bigger is fine.

If you're going to run a straight pipe, then you might as well go ahead and get your hearing aids ordered right away as well. You'll be needing them.

Ya, I hope if he takes it to a show, he'll have the decency and courtesy to park it for the duration, then load it after the show is over. It doesn't need to be driven around disturbing everybody while they're trying to talk and enjoy themselves.

Yep the g that was here had Allen head bolts to get a bit more clearance. If you search JDS447 on the World Wide Web the dimensions will be made available to you…the g that was here has one used Allen bolts to get more clearance I honestly hadn’t looked at the A yet but it’s supposed to fit A thru G and all the successors to 730 so that would include your 60. I like my quiet one on the A it sounds more like it’s pumping air at low idle. My hearing is prematurely leaving I’m afraid.

My 70 Diesel had a straight pipe when I bought it. After plowing with it for a couple of hours I put a muffler back on it and put the straight pipe on the shelf.

Phart Can exhaust is annoying .

To each his own, I have a couple JDs with no muffler on my own farm nobody else's business.

No argument there.

I know it is not quite a 3408,but several years ago a 999 Mack used run to buy my house,that also sounded very good!
I live at a 4 way stop,so I got to hear it both on the Jakes and on acceleration!

 

[buickanddeere]

Like pipe organs. The lower notes need both a longer and larger diameter pipe .

Years ago when I lived in town I had a 48 John Deere D with a 4 inch straight pipe exhaust. I would drive it to the local bank drive-up window. When I went up the ramp to the window I would ride the brake. The sound of the exhaust hitting the ceiling of the drive-up would bring everyone to the window.

A compromise between straight pipe and full-bodied muffler would be a baffled straight stack. That's what I have on my 730.

Thickness has nothing to do with that, it is how big around. The bigger around, the deeper the tone?

Right, thickness of the sheet metal used in building the pipe would not affect tone... yes, total air-space volume inside a container is the main factor in tone. A straight pipe would actually not be deep at all since there is no large volume for expansion.

The JD D on the right has a Muffler commonly replaced on the Dodge Ram 3500,with the Cummings diesel.
I used a Marlon (spelling) clamp from a General Electric Gas turbine. Very easy to remove exhaust.
Very low "Decibels" ........... very pleasant to operate........

The other two have a strait pipe........ extreme sound reminiscent of rifle shots....... Not used on a daily usage.!!!!!!
