Yes, I am finished up my diesel swap.

It has been an almost 2 year project now.

I only need to get this Dana 60 fabricated up and figure out the front springs with that big old pig under the hood. (the cummins alone weights about 980 lbs !!!)

Good luck with the springs... -Check with a spring shop instead of guessing.

When you get some pics and tech info in your gallery don't forget to post it under the "completed projects" sticky at the top of this forum.

I did a 6.9 into a '75 F250 highboy some years ago. I am now putting a Cummins 12 valve p-pump engine in a '78 F250 4x4 SC.
