Ok so it's not a dodge, but at least it's a cummins

I picked up a brand new Bus Chassis from the Bluebird auction when the factory shut down, and decided to build myself a motorhome for traveling with the family for my son's motocross racing, anyway, the bus had a whimpy POS 410hp Caterpillar in it......... I took it for a drive and decided that Cat C13 had to go. So I bought a brand new Cummins ISX 600HP engine to swap out the Cat.
The Cummins was a DPF/EGR engine........... but I took care of that problem with a custom delete kit and had the computer reprogramed to 700HP





At first I was excited about having this Caterpillar.


Then I drove it


I started getting ideas


Then all hell breaks loose, and I bought the Cummins

 

 

Of course there was a few modifications that had to be made before we installed the Cummins.......... see ya later EGR and DPF!!!






And a little reprograming here...



Then we could put it in...


Before and after



And not only did I not use a DPF, it's a STRAIGHT PIPE

 

Next part of this project will be fabricating the "Wheelie Bars" LOL

 

Wow, nice project.

I believe that motor requires SCA in the coolant. Might want to look into that.

 

Wow, they are some big a$$ engines...dang!
What's the mpg's you'd expect to get with that beast?

I think the whole DPF crap is BS on Personal vehicles. It should only be required on Company or Fleet vehicles...

 

Nice project but is 700 HP enough

 

Not really, but the 2300LBS or torque is

This set up is good for about 7.5mpg if I dont do burnouts
