Dodge truck engine swap
- Thread starter Ken Ford
- Start date
Go price used diesel dodge trucks, thats CHEAP
Yeah I know but I ain't rich
But I have an idea.
Do a cost per mile analysis on it and then do one on any new car with a payment.
I have been through a lot of work trucks in my life. If I go buy a used truck for 5k and have to put a new motor and tranny in it the next day I am still so far ahead of the game on buying a new truck, or spending 20k on a high dollar used one.
I wouldn't do a 5.9 unless you need it. A 4BT in a half ton frame can get you all the power you need from a half ton and in the 20s for mpg.
3.9 cummins is an awesome motor, wish I could buy a Dakota with one in it.
3.9 cummins?
4bt is a 3.9 liter cummins
