A quick question

Any of you guys familiar with a company called FordCummins? This was brought up last night over T-Day dinner and I had never heard of them, just wondering who they are and what they do, based on the name, I would suspect they are putting the Cummins in the Ford trucks.

They make adapter plates to mate cummins motor and ford trans for various years. They have other products too but that's what they do

And they're insanely expensive for what they do. But, they do kind of have a corner on the market.

yup. it is a company that overcharges for adapter plates to put a turd engine in a ford truck to make it worth about $10,000 less than you could get for it if it had a Navastar engine in it.

I'm glad there's at least one other person out there that agrees with me.

I really was not worried whether they were good or bad, I just wanted to know what they did, that is all. I certainly don't plan on putting a cummins in any of my trucks, if I wanted a cummins, I would go buy a dodge and hang out on the dodge diesel website!
