Hello All,
I am a new member in North FL. I'd like to to find out if anyone here had done a similar engine swap with this oil burner.
I have acquired a John Deere 4 cylinder 4039T diesel engine from a government surplus generator. It seems to be similar in size and weight to a Cummins BT4.
Has anyone here put on of these 4039T into a 1/2 ton pickup? I was leaning towards a Ram 1500, however a Ford F150, Chevy or Toyota Tundra would certainly be a potential receiver of this motor.
It's only around 100HP so I can't see installing it into a 3/4 ton truck.
Anyone interested in providing some info or suggestions? I am all ears and really appreciate your feedback.
Thanks in advance,
Dale
