New Excursion / New to FTE

Good morning!

I've been a long time lurker on the forum but never have joined. This forum by far is one of the nicest and knowledgeable out there. Just a little about me and my Ford history:

My first ride was a 1991 full size Bronco. After that I briefly owned a 79 F150 (460 on 33s). My college truck was a 2000 f150 stepside short bed. I then owned a 92 7.3idi, a 96 Powerstoke, a 99 Powerstoke, a CC dually Powerstoke, and now finally the Ex. I also had a little Ranger somewhere in there.

Anyway, I bought a 01 Ex with a v10 and I'm looking for some help and knowledge on a Cummins swap. I know there are some members that have done it. I have a full donor 01 Dodge Cummins 24v. Thanks in advance!

Yup, 12v/nv4500. Wasn't too bad of a swap, waiting on parts took the most time of anything

Joe, I will definitely have to pick your brain especially since you are so close to me. I think I'm about an hour and 10 away from Charles Town, WV. I live in Sperryville, VA. Do you have a build thread? Thanks!
