I am very sure that there are many other users like me who have Ford trucks that have diesel motors installed that don't exactly fit within any of the areas provided.
Given this. FACT
Don't you think it's about time that we are recognized as.valid users within the diesel structure so we will also have the opportunity to share our trucks with other users?
For Example:
My FUMMINS truck is a
1973 Ford F250 "Explorer"Edition" 2wd
It has a 5.9 12 Valve Cummins engine that was originally purchased as a "crate" engine in 1986 and installed in 1987. It has an original C6 transmission which has been upgraded to a 4 speed automatic with the addition of a Gear Vendor Overdrive unit. It also has a Propane Injection modification with adjustable level connected to the turbo intake. The truck is also equipped with a full set of gauges to monitor all aspects of engine operation.
My International based 1995 FIRD 4x4 CCLB coupled with a german tranny power driving a sterling silver rear end is too sexy for fuming dummies?
I will concede that there are a number of Cummins repowers running around the American Highway system these days, but there is no way in the world that I would expect a giant conglomerate internet forum administrator to create a special section - especially since most of those are repaired, maintained, and likely built by people who should have a sense of what's going on with them. The only reason to ask questions about it on a Ford-centric forum would to have an excuse to show it off.
Where's the section for the one person with a 7.3L Powerstroke Crown Vic? Oh, this is a pickup/truck website. Crownvic .net exists for my car!
I am not averse to putting pictures on the internet of the junk that I have built (or others' pride and joy of course), but I believe they should go in the model year dependent section or specific engine sections.

To each their own, I'm just not into seeing classics getting cut up for modern (computer controlled) transplants. You're removing the charm that makes it cool. One of the best things about classics is how basic and simple they are.
