Allot of fab work, you have to raise the body and rework the firewall. The one you have seen pulling has had allot done to it.

the black truck out of PA im gonna assume your talkin about Andy, he's pretty nasty and his motor is right up there with most single charger hot farm/limited pro tractors.......your looking at a 3 inch body lift and modifying the firewall heavily.....

i would love to see pics of the DT466 in that ford if anybody has them. That is a big engine to put in a little truck I would just like to see how he did it.

I cant really find any info on a DT360 and from what I was told by some of the guys at work the 360 is roughly the same size as the 466. Oh well, maybe that will be added to the bucket list . Thanks guys. Any pics of the conversions or videos would be sweet if anyone can find them.
