  1. One of our customers in Oregon. He's 75 years young with Parkinson. With help, he is doing alot of the work him self. He put a 94 Cummins in this truck with most of the truck being close to original. (HE DID IT HIS WAY!post-78906-14314200414_thumb.jpg) Hats of for this guy with the disabilities.

  2. I was thinking more of the engines fitting in the same space. Where the exhaust dumps out may make a difference. The distributor and a few other items are not really an issue when it comes to that. There ARE modifications that you will have to make as far as accelerator/throttle/choke cable linkages & such, too. The more I think about it, the more I am thinking that it will not be an easy switch.
    Thanks, my brain out to lunch
  3. Just amazing the talent around the world. I have a good friend that lives in Detroit Michigan that came from Armenia back in the 40s to work at the Ford's River Rouge Plant in Michigan. In 1970s, he bought a 33 Plymouth 5 window coupe with no fenders, hood and grill. You would think back then that you could get those parts with no problem. He couldn't find them good enough shape for his car. He went ahead and made all the parts out of (stainless steel) by hand forming. You couldn't tell that the were hand formed. The car, even being a street rod, took second in the national car show circuit and 3rd for the Don Ridler award. Nice job that your friend is doing and my hat off to his talent.
