Well, at least keep us up to date as things progress. We will be anxiously pissing out pants, waiting for news, pictures, video, etc.

Cummins siting in the truck.
Would be lots of room if there was not that front diff to work around.
Bell housing is back from the machinist so might make some good progress this week if work does not get in the way.
New engine mounts will be the first job.

Here are the two engines siting next to each other.
The Cummins is way taller but at least its not as wide.

So what's the fate of the old engine? Paperweight? :D

So I heard the 5.9 is the same height, is that so? with an E-fan and fabbing a new core support, could the 5.9 fit? Certainly it will be taller in the engine bay due to the angle, but a hood hump could take care of that.... now how about the 6.7?!
