Wow. Theres some thought. I bet it really screws with the punks in rice cars. Not too much smoke though, must be fairly stock. Pretty cool!

I guess I should mention the 2006 F550 with a 2002 Cummins and 6 speed. It belongs to my customer but gets parked at my shop every night. I dynoed it in Tulare at 450/900 at the tires.

Mine is a 99 F250 2 wheeler- street racer/drag racer/commuter, but it's not a Cummins swap it's a Kornbinder. Kind of a unique twist to a 12valve, since the DT466 is a 12 valve and will have a P-pump. Almost the same stroke, but a lot bigger bore than a 6BT. One of very few bigger diesels that can spin to 4500. The beginning pix are in my sig. Still dont have an engine yet, but got a deal on the Alli tranny.

Not sure where I'm getting it yet. I keep nosing around ebay, craigs, looking for a bus dismantler, and a few independant places. They arent that easy to find, since most are still on the road.

That is what I did - - 79 F250, but I pulled a 400M and dropped in a 4BT not a 6BT.

The 4BT weighs the same as a 400M/460. It's a great truck.
Has way more power than the 400M ever had.
