91 Dodge 4x4 12v Cummins Intercooled/5 speed, D60 & D70 rear w/ 3.55's and a Powr-Lok--- Lots of fuel and some boost-
SOLD-- 91 Reg. cab shortbed GMC, Black on black, 350tbi crate, 5 speed w/hurst shifter, 3.42 G80--- Over 400,000 miles on body
yeah i have the chance to buy 4 for 2k each but they have had parts removed a local mining company imports them to australia without compliance so they cant be regoed so only good for parts. i thought the fire wall might be a problem my truck has had a full respray and hasnt seen bitumen for 7 years
checked out youtube, pissonjapscrap mines a single cab nearly the same colour but im going the 6.7, 6 speed
Oh my god its a 6.7 too.
and 6spd. Jizzz..
I don't think anyone has ever done that swap before so good luck...that transmission alone is much taller than a typical NV4500, the G56 also weighs about #350 so have fun.....but it will be awesome when its done

Two words. Body lift. You really did steal that though man, that sounds like a 10k truck here. If it is wrecked.

Junk is a strong word. They are just better without the emissions

got the dodge today *******s holed the sump putting it on the truck and the front diff is blown. i remove a ton of dirt from inside the cab and powered it up all the accesories work but i have no start power souldnt be to hard to sort out just need a owners manual to identify fuses also need to pull the gear stick out and remove the gear lock that the mining contractor put in and free up the transfer case

this is the donor dodge
looks ok from a distance and it only has 38000 kms on the clock
build date 11/07
this is my 1976 c20 that im hoping to transplant all that cummins into
I'm gonna guess it doesn't have it since he said it was imported by a mining company and doesn't comply with Aussie laws for road going vehicles.

Looks like you need to register on some Cummins forums as well.

1993 K2500 Suburban. 454 poked and stroked to 496. Comp Cam roller valvetrain, JimD(454ss.com) bored TBI, Thorley headers, Edelbrock TBI intake ported and flowed. Innovate WBO2, TunerPro RT, Ostrich, Burn1.*Now running a Dynamic EFI EBL with a '7060 piggybacked to run the 4L80E.*
The good thing is you have the whole truck so finding a computer and all the other wiring you need wont be a issue. I was gonna put a 12 valve p-pump cummins in a 52 F-1 ford but I couldnt even find a motor for $2000 let alone everything I needed. You got lucky to say the least.
once i get what i want out of the dodge im looking for a wreaked dodge here in wa that has compliance so i can use the body as it isnt in bad condition seems a pity just to toss it
where is the DODGE imported from/ certified for
there should be a tag on the radiator support that states that the vehicle meets california / National / Canadian standards
is the C20 imported or did they sell them down under? and is it RHD? if so MORE PICS PLEASE
Its been donr alot. Search google and youll find everything you need.
