Found more on that truck. Got the builder's name from the rear plate. There's a video at the link on their site. Nice build.

Looks nice.
Wish Cummins would have sponsored my build. I'd have nice paint and upholstery in the bed to hide the dents too.

But, I would NOT have used a Computer controlled, smog laden 4cly Diesel that weights almost much as my 6cyl... Costs 9 times as much, and that's without a trany or adapter...
PS. it has a 90day warranty, void if you mod it in any way. :bs:

Great idea Cummins, make a motor specifically for engine swap projects.
But like 90% of corporate attempts, they missed the mark by a couple of million miles.

A brand new BT4 from the Cummins factory costs much less has 12 month warranty. More power and torque and no doubt will last much longer. :2cents:

I'm actually happy they didnt sponsor my build...
