No, you said you were putting a 5.9L Cummins in it.

Good luck, what's that gonna run?

And how you fitting it?

Well, I, as long as everyone else on here, expect picture updates, EVERY step of the way, as long as a DETAILED write-up, as to how to do this.

Then, just maybe then, we will believe some things you say.

Banks made it fit, but it took some serious work, I think the firewall got moved like 6 inches or something.

well i've made other posts about it but yeah...and...yeah...firewall's gonna hve to be modified but will be reinforced so i still am still DOT Legal...uhm...yeah alot of custom work...gotta fabricate motor mounts gotta actually extend out the front in by an 1 1/2 inches...so i mean its gonna be some work but It'll be worth it...so yeah well just for the motor and trany its about 7 grand so 3500 outa my pocket...then you got all the suspension components...so it'll take me a while to get done but by the time its done it'll probably be around 20-25 thousand dollars but only 10-12 outa my pocket
so it'll be good when i'm done...
