what's wrong the your engine now? miles?

articfox 01-01-2012 08:19 PM

nothing yet its got 250k miles on it but it was driven like it was stolen before i bought it and towed 5 tons every day in wv so idk when it will go but i just was just wondering what to buy if it goes:humm:

well does it show sings of being run hard? i wouldn't really worry about it. but you could get a over stock crate motor from one of the site sponsors :tu:

i have a Jasper motor and trans in my 99 F250 with no issues what so ever. truck runs hard, and takes my beating.

articfox 01-02-2012 05:53 PM

okay and im not gona replace it till it blows hopefully not for a while. anyone know how hard it is to put a v6 cummins in a 2001 f250? they look nice when done right:humm:

fordornothing 01-02-2012 06:01 PM

a V6 cummins? never hear of those. i have heard of the I6 cummins.

ZombieSoldier 01-02-2012 06:06 PM

Cummins does not make a V6 they make an inline 6. It's rather complex and time consuming but they make a kit. Search for "Fummins"

6 cylinder my bad n okay never mind then
