I was half *** looking at 3126 Cat for a split second... Coulda had a complete Sterling L7500 with a manual tranny, for $3050... 2000 model, 250 hp, 600 ft lb...

Copart, FTW.

dt408 is the same size as a dt466... 400 series engines. any dt engine will require a custom trans adapter for use with a ford trans. the flywheel housings also double as a rear seal carrier.

what was the 5 speed that came behind the powerstrokes? I know mine was a ZF something . anyway it was modded to a little over 300 HP and that trans never gave me any trouble at all.

the idi,gasser sand early PSD used a ZF 5 s-42 (till 95) rated at 420 ft lbs tq

The mid 95 and later Powerstrokes and gassers used the ZF 5 s-47 Rated at 470ft lbs tq

But .....with that being said. I have seen 450hp/ 800+ lbs tq motors in front of the s-42 holding up for the past 2 years towing regularly
