then you will have 2 less cylinders, 40 less hp, and around 110lbs less torque.
i would rather put a gas engine in first.

Id love to drop a commonrail 5.9 in an obs. That would be a wicked truck. Just look at the diesel power challenge.

mehh.
an international DT360 is a much better engine, and can be purchased for 1/4 the cost of a cummapart.

yes, the DT360 will fit in with minor modifications because it is a little bigger than the 5.9 cummins.

Brake cleaner would eliminate a dental cleaning bill. Problem is, I probably wouldn't have any enamel left
