@MrCardini I only have 3 vids of this truck. Actually I didnt spend a dime on the conversion because only worked at the shop it was built at and its not mine lol. But all BS aside a conversion varies in price. Mainly depends on what motor you choose, trans, what kind of upgrades you want, things like that. If you can find a whole donor truck that would be best as you have 90% of the parts. Also depends what vehicle its going into. 1973-87 chevy trucks are without a doubt the easiest
@1982yota ok. haha ohh, yeah i've been dabating the 12 or 24v? (any input on that??) yeah i've been looking for a 90's dodge as a doner but i dont have enough money yet for a new pickup. see i have a 72 k20 chevy truck, so im guessing mine would be pretty easy too.
@MrCardini if you can find a 94-98.5 12v that would be your best bet as they are the best out of the bunch. You can build more power for less than the 24v or newer engines and they simpler and easier to work on and way more reliable. Price wise 24v engines well probably be about 1k more unless you find a deal. You truck would be a perfect candidate for a 5.9 swap
@1982yota alright well thanks, now i know what to look for.. hey do you perhaps know a website that has a list of what you need to do a cummins conversion on an old chevy like mine? i've seen them for fords and some chevys but never a 72 chevy.
Sorry if i'm asking the same thing someone else did... but what transmission are u running and how do you like it? i am planning on putting a 12 valve in place of a v10 and i want a tranny i wont have problems with
@chevyv8HD its a Th400 built by Extreme Automatic. Its spragless, has a billet valve body, high stall converter, trans, etc, etc. Its more for racing and not for the street. I guess tranny choice depends on how much HP your engine has and what you plan to do with your truck IE sled pull, mud bogger, daily driver, etc. Ford and allsion autos are great, although both require custom tuning and controller to work with the truck and engine. dodge trans are good too but have to built up a bit first
@chevyv8HD well the plan is probably a moderate lift and 35s, maybe pull a boat or something now and then. i kind of also want a manual but a tough automatic would be fine. working with a small budget here so building one up isn't really an option (lol), which ford ones are any good? and are the allisons out of the newer chevs the only ones i could get ahold of used?
@chevyv8HD if you decide to go to manual you will save quiet a bit over an auto. an NV4500 or 5600 would be a great choice. If i recall the 4R110 is pretty good and the 5R110 are good too but take a while to tune properly and work well with the truck. Any allison from a duramax will be fine, the newer the better because as the dmax improved thru the years so did the allison.
@1982yota oh ok, well i've heared of the nv4500s being descent. so hopefully i will shoot for that! thanks for the info and again, that's a badass truck in the video lol very nice.
@1998moto myself and another youtuber (hickerbilly86) built this truck and no longer work at the smoke em diesel. Your guess is as good as mine as to why it was at moose jaw this year.
@Jishory thanks, I did it that way because 4" is tight between the trans, t-case and frame rails. Plus it keeps heat away from trans and it looks badass lol.
@jdutton100 140hp sticks, big turbo (cant remember what size i think 62mm), fass fuel system, maxed out and gutted P7100, head studs, NOS and meth injection, cant remember all the mods.
is this a 12 0r 24 valve?
