Great truck but I think people click dislike because of the music. I never ever want to hear music when I'm looking for cool truck/engine videos. I want to hear technical information or nothing at all. Cool truck tho.
Will stay with our 460 bored .60 over to a 472 with a huge lunati cam headers aluminum intake and heads ya it is just fine for us granted not as good on gas but sure is fast especially in our 79 F250 supercab but its only two wheel drive.
Snowman44077... They do in fact put 4bt ISB Cummins engines in F-250 and F-350's from the factory down in South America so according to you, this engine is a " Ford Cummins "
Snowman44077... No no no no no NO, not a Dodge Cummins!!! Its a Cummins engine, nothing DODGE about it , in fact its a 4bt Cummins, they didnt put these engines in any dodge ever( unlike the 6bt). Thats like saying a 350 cummins or a N14 cummins is a " dodge cummins "
just sold the motor and trans to a friend of mine, he swapin it into a 93 ford f150 2wd. the motor realy tweaked up now. i cant wait to see how it works out. want to know if anyone is interested in the rest of the truck. im starting a new project. 4bt in a jeep.
im putting a 6bt in my '94 f150, im not sure if ill be swapping the motor onto the ford frame or not i may just swap the bodys if i can find a complete dodge.. but if not i have to add a front end and tcase (my fords only 2wd for now)
@lifeofrileycardigan every cummins from 89 to 2007.5 is a 5.9 regardless of 1st gen 12 valve. 2nd gen 12 valve, 2nd gen 24 valve, the common rail. still a 5.9
ya since i posted that i decided id put a 1st gen 6bt in because of the simplicity of it. already got the donor truck, and blew up the shitty 305 in a strip job lol
Hey now, I see Jersey tags. Where from bro. In the south here. Btween Philly and AC. Nice rig. I have an old 78 250 that I used to mudd. Been wanting to do a diesel swap. Wife wants me to sell it. Yeah right!
I completely understand why you put a cummins in good job BUT why the fuck a 4bt??? with a few mods you could have def fit a full size 5.9 12v cummins in there!!!!! wtf! regardless nice truck
Bet he gets better than 20 mpg city in that truck. There are guys out there running the same sort of setup getting over 25 mpg with plenty of torque to get the job done.
hey i love the seats, can u take a few pics and tell me how conferable they are in that regular cab?, i have the same truck and i want those kinda seats, that would be sick.
Just curious why you'd put a 4 banger diesel in a full size? It seems like the HP is low at estimated 108 and the torque is around 268 which isn't much better than a 4.0l engine in a ranger. I understand gas mileage is nice but why not drop in a 302 or something where you'd have WAY more HP and more torque ?
cause thats to original. I like to be a little different. not to many 78's are diesel powerd. Its not a race truck by any means but it runs realy good for a 3.9L
@mixwell1983 I take it you no nothing about engines. Well even at stock power it will out tow a small block all day long and get 4 times the milage. However bump up a little and your talkin some raceing power. You could get 300 Hp and 600 pounds of torque farely easy! K hp on a diesel is twice the power compared to gas. Oh yea it will out live all your rigs put togeather! Understand now? NICE FORD!
nice truck. i'm planning a putting in a 4bt in a like yours and i was wondering if you could answer some question. what mileage does it get and how did it go together what parts and the like? if you could it would be awesome.
what do u mean (custom) dodge seats????
unless you narrowed the seats/consule it would b too wide!!!
tell me more .i got a 76 f 250 ,i got a set of 98 dodge buckets and my measure tape says there too wide . what did you do ???

Most people who do swaps don't want power. A 4bta provides enough power and better mileage than a 6bta usually does.

you can also make a few cheap modifications and end up with 300hp and 600lbft you'll just lose some of that factory 30-35mpg
