You don't want that, it will not run worth a dam on diesel ;)

Well now I don't have to worry about fuel at all anymore

But look at my lift now... To think all I needed to do was take out the brick.

Hey Mark,
Finally time for that Electric Conversion? Where will you put the 18 batteries? :wink:

I just want to pay back everything that I got from you guys.... mainly the diesel exhaust fumes!

Mark,
Are you planning on replacing with V8 with something else? Or simply re-building the existing engine?
Either ways, good luck with the project. Looking forward to seeing you at one of our runs when the weather gets warmer.

This is going in....
It's a om606 turbo, a 6l90e transmission and a Ashcroft special transfercase

Nice mod. Where did you get the sump for the 606?

I met this super nice guy online that had done this conversion more than once (they are the goto non OEM swap in Europe). I ended up shipping all my parts to his place and then he boxed them up and sent them here in a single shipment. Saved a ton of shipping. Also he had great advice.

im toying with the idea of a om648 swap but still in the dreaming stage.
what did your get in your tcase? did you change the high range gears? add the ATB

It’s from Ashcroft. I HDed everything I could.. went to a higher gear set and the atb.

I figured that with all the torque from the new engine and the fact that I’m running 4.43 diffs I could use a higher gear.

It's being done at big country customs in Abbotsford. They also made my rear bumper for me amount many other things. They don't say no there.

Had an issue with the linkage for my transfercase. I had too move it back because of the longer transmission. I didn't want to cut more holes in the floor and cut up my automatic console. I found the solution by following what the English guys are doing when they swap Cummins in... Often they put in larger transmissions including alisons! They go with a pneumatic system.. maybe an alternative for the disco guys who want to put CDL in....
