I have been thinking about yanking the V10 out of my truck and dropping a Cummins in its place. What all would this entail. If I do this I plan on getting a wrecked donor truck mainly so I can get the coolers and the harness. Would a 12 or a 24 valve be better for a swap. How hard would it be to go to a manual, it is an auto now ( I have a feeling is is on borrowed time.) Just curious as to what you guys thought. The truck is the 2500 in my signature.

 

dodgetrucker75 is who you need to talk to he has a 98-12v converted from v10,afe stg.2 intake,"custom" fuel plate & afc,ddp 3 injectors,4gsk. twins 62/68/13 over 75mm s400, rack plug, 60lb. springs, stg. 2 water/meth


That is all his info in his signature that person is your best bet.

 

if you can get a doner... do it!!! very easy... you can do 12v or 24v, the only problem with doing the 12v in your year is, you need a 98-98.5 firewall mounted pcm, engine harness (engine harness also includes trans harness) and a/c condenser, converting to manual is very easy, everything bolts in, the cummins and the v-10 share the same bellhousing too, except for the 6-speed cummins.
