best bet would be buy a long block 7.3 from ford . the only cat small enough to fit would be a 3114 , although a 3126e/ c7 would be nice 350 hp inline 6

Yes they do. I saw an F-550 out at Dumont Dunes about 3 years ago that had a CAT under the hood. BTW, that truck had a huge crowd around it and I know it was the coolest street legal pickup I've ever seen.

Also, an old guy I work with swears you can buy a Ford truck in Canada equipped with a CAT engine. Be nice if someone from up north would chime in and confirm or deny that. I believe he has land in Montana and gets up around that area and around Alberta about once a year.

Yep, that 550 did have huge (like 10 ton) differentials under it, way cool customized too, wish I had my camera with me

What about SD's up in Canada equipped with different power plants, any truth to that?
