Default My 97 F-150..... Yes I Said F-150

Well here is my project truck a 1997 F-150 with a Cummins Powerplant.


This is the recipient of the transplant. Just your ordinary truck.

Fits like a glove!

Lots of room to fit an intercooler

My custom lower radiator return line...Man it is nice to know an exhaust/metal fabricator.

Another picture of the lower return line....You can see I am using an electric fan for the ratiator



I have to take a few more pictures yet but this is my project and it is up and running just haveing a few little bugs that are getting worked out

No it is a mileage getter. It has more power than the 4.6 that was in it though. I have helped do this same type of conversion to a friends truck and he was ( and I am not kidding) getting 31mpg....27 if he went and played in the mud
