Engine swap "Cummin" soon

[snoranger]

Its only about 700-750 lbs.

Once you move the battery and a couple other things out of the engine compartment, it ties the 5.0 for weight.

 

[snoranger]

Its about the same as a 460.

Ah, ok. I thought the Explorer engines were lighter than that.

I'm going to pick the Ranger up tomorrow after work. Turns out its an '01 with 98k miles.

I've got no updates for the diesel swap. I spend the weekend at Raceway Park watching the nationals.

I would like to say congrats to local Pro-stock Motorcycle racer, defending PSM champ, current PSM points leader, and long time family friend, Eddie Krawiec for his first hometown win in PSM. Here's a pic of all of us in the winner's circle.

Awesome Eddie is a great guy my stepdad works at V&H in indy with Eddie and Drew great pic great dude

I've been looking at bread trucks from which to take a 4bt. For the experts following this thread, what should I look for when I'm checking the trucks out?

Man, this is awesome. I was actually talking about this thread at work when a buddy told me I should swap a diesel into mine. Great work so far!

Im in Florida right now at Disney. I should be back at it soon.




Id much rather be home working on this then stuck here with all these kids.

Mmmm Cummins. I saw a Cummins powered CJ the other day and got me thinking. If this 4.0 BII swap blows up on me a turbo diesel would be nice.

It is good to be back. I love this forum and am always reading stuff, but haven't posted in a while. I haven't been on a Trail Run in a long time either. With the Explorer down, it might be a while. I'm thinking of a Moab run next fall, if I can't get the Explorer going by then, I'll just have to take the Powerstroke and hope its not too big to fit on the trails I run.
