Well I guess it a year later and I haven't had time to post, but I am back. The swap is "done" and i drove it quite a bit late summer and until the snow flew here in Michigan. I have to say I'm impressed with how hard the DT pulls! At the moment it isn't inter cooled. However, that is on the...
Thank you subway for the confirmation! Also I have been doing some more research and understand that the ZF5 will be my weak link. I am not set In my ways of manual and have been looking at a Allison 1000 with a shift kit . Is this a good transmission? How would this hold up to the power...
Good deal! That is great! For the stock turbo, is it large enough where i can run compounds with it and still acquire a good amount of boost and hp or should I just run the single to begin with? What setup would you recommend ?
I picked up the DT360 last night and got it inside before the snow hit. Seems to be in pretty decent shape! Here are some more pictures. Also, could you help explain to me the differences between the less desirable VE Pump and the. P-Pump. I believe my motor is a P Pump motor. But what makes it...

I'm not looking to sell it someday and make any money off it. I just want to have a unique daily driver and yes if I do the swap i would know where the weak spots are we able to fix is there any spots I should strengthen on the frame if I do the swap ? And is there a way for me to hook up a...
Earlier this summer I picked up an old chevy k20 from my local barber over in Michigan. The truck used to be a D.O.T highway truck and was physically abused. After the hard life of being a highway truck is became a wood hauler for the rest of its life until now! I picked it up for 700 bucks it's...
