Re: 53 Subframe swap CUMMINS

Well I see for one a custom fabbed header to turbo to start with, it is a 12 valve so not much as far as eletronics. The motor will weigh arounf 1000 so about 300 kbs more than a big block.. Some good fron springs a decent size tire and wheel as he has should do the trick. Thing is how often would you have to check the wheel bearings for this..

The intercooler and batterys are another deal all together... I did not notice the batterys so maybe they are located in the bed... That is a very tight fit and would hate to have to even think about replacing the seal between the cc and ps.... OUCH... I wish he would let us see it rll down the road...
