Cummins anyone?
Thinking about putting a 5.9L cummins in my 69 instead of a big block any input? Dieselwrencher has had pretty good luck with these cummins and the appeal of a unique older vehicle is pretty cool.

Re: Cummins anyone?
DO IT BROTHER.....I just swapped an military GM 6.2L diesel into my '71 Burb....Cummins would of been more power, but more money. Try this link...this is a cool swap and a badass ride at that....
