This truck was never in a accident, it was robbed of parts to fix another truck that WAS in an accident. its nothing special. the drivers door has a rust hole right through it, tail gate's pooched, interior is beat. I might rob the power windows and locks for my truck too. dash is pulled apart.............but who cares it runs great. It sat for a year and fired right up after cracking #1 for a few seconds. Ya I'm pulling the engine right out and putting it on a stand in the garage and overhauling it, its got 400k on the clock anyways.

just make sure your 98.5 isnt a 53 block.... or you might want to look into switching blocks from the 94

Oh my '98 is absolutely a 53 block. I'm not going to worry about it until it becomes a problem, if at all.

I've strongly been toying with the idea of depositing the Cummins into a Superduty F350 crewcab dually full load type deal. I'm starting the search for one with a tanked engine.
