Partial owner in a house in Jameson, when Dad died, he left us his mobile... More of a storage shed on wheels, but nonetheless.. should life ever kick me to where a bridge looks like home.. I have one.Thanks,
I am about 40 miles north of KC. I need to post some more pictures, but I have been slacking, I now have an 11 day old son!

If it helps I just swapped my 89 F350. I used a 92 VE 12 valve, they're all the same regardless, but that's what I used. I used Scott's Destroked 12V-ZF5 plate and 6.0 starter. Ran $900 even to my door. I bought the 92 dodge 4x4 for $1000. Sold the front and rear for $900, the trans and t-case for $600, scrapped the truck for $37 and sold the old 7.3 for $600. I made $237 putting the Cummins into my Ford.
I put a Bendix air brake compressor with high pressure ZF power steering pump and a 3G alternator on the 5.9 at the same time and converted the truck to hydroboost. I used the radiator, intercooler and tubes from a 98 F800 with a 5.9 Cummins.
I've turned up the fuel and installed a 3200 governor spring in the pump. Already it's twice the power and 50% better mileage of the 7.3 and I'm still running the crap 21.5CM turbine housing and crinkle bend 3" dodge exhaust. In the next few weeks I plan to add a BHAF, mechanical control HE351VE VGT turbo and 4" exhaust with a straight through muffler.
I still have to find a small electric vacuum pump to supply vacuum to the heater controls, but that's minor.
That red will make it at least 5mph faster, in front of the MHP radar. LMAO! Ok so it wasn't that funny. I got a crew cab 97 460 that's about to get a 91&1/2 12V. Did you use the ford tranny? if so what adapter and how much? That's a damn sweet set-up w/the twins and all. You're taken all the excuses I made for not doing mine yet away. I live about an hour &1/2 S of KC, maybe I could see yours in person, I'll bring the beer.
Thanks for the compliments! I just went with Cummins red to mess with peoples heads a little more. I used the NV4500 from a dodge diesel. Heavier transmission and alot easier due to the fact that I didn't have to use a adapter.
