The 78 has a non-I/C out of a '90 the ford is out of a '96 both 12v, the 96 before caming it dynoed at 378 /845 should be just over 400 w/cam enough to pull my 5'er.

Wow that's pretty respectable power out of a 12 valve [older] cummins. If you don't mind, what cam did you go with? New head studs, pushrods, etc.? Would be neat to see what you did with that 12v cummins to get to that power output.

for the 378 hp 300 merine sticks, ground fuel plate, 4gsk w/60# springs, 15.5* timming. I have put on twins for cooling pulling the 5'er and studs. went with a hamilton cam, pushrods, springs, and 24v lifters should put it over 400 hp.
