Where the hell did you mount a 20 gallon tank. I would love one that big, but I dont have enough room, I am thinking about adding another 8 gallon tank and mounting it in the bed. How long does it take for the compressors to fill it up.

Words can't describe how much fun you can have with these. Can't wait to see a video . Two weeks ago an actually CSX engineer blew my K3's . He couldn't believe it . He said ,It sounds no different . He also couldn't get over the valve . Saying, Its just like on our console. I also found out a few other things.
  1. There trains run at 140 psi. air pressure
  2. 2 longs, 1 one short ,1 long = crossing (meaning their coming up on a road crossing )

thats awesome, then im right with them with my 145psi cut off switch....at least for a second or two. and i remember i found somewhere the actual lengths of the blasts and what they meant, iirc 2 short blasts means they are backing up and thats the only one i really remember.

i went to a concert in Greensboro NC a couple years ago and a guy drove up in an desiel excursion lifted 44" boggers. when he hopped down and hit his remote lock button the whole parking lot turned around. he had mack truck horns on his. sounded a lot better than a factory horn on a truck that big!

I would, but I would be afraid the rain would kill my compressors. Especially since its been raining everyday.

I am going to do a setup like these on both my cummins trucks but I will be using a engine driven compressor on my trucks with a blow off valve on the tank so it sounds like a big truck...
