What do you all think is better, keeping my Ford and making a fummins or buiying a CR. I do want a dually, but i think the "aaww" of doing a engine swap would be cool.

Sunir

buying a CR...they're great trucks...no hassle no guess work like the swap. Plus you get a warranty and a cummins that's ready to put the key in a work for ya!

So if you get a CR are you keeping the 95 or will it be for sale?

crabbelle

oh i will most likely keep the 95 and just trade in my ford, this is most likely a 1 or 2 year plan, Probably be a self treat when i transfer to baltimore.

Thats what I want to do when I make 2nd, sell the 98.5 and get a cr. the EPO here has one its straight piped and on 35's its an awesome truck but he cant wait for the warranty to run out to hook it up.

skynyrd

heck with the warranty they won't cover anything any way the warranty is just a bunch of BS

getblown5.9

we've never had a problem. dads truck broke an injector, no questions asked and it was fixed. neighbor has had issues, they fixed them.

i bought my truck used, with mods done to it, and they warrantied the first vp44 because it was dying when i bought the truck

bootsdodgejn

well i found a 5-1/2 clamp. Now i just need to figure out how to connect it to the bed.

skynyrd

bring it down the 30th and we'll figure something out

boots, i live in rosedale and im workin on bob's truck tommorow doin a stack and a boost gauge which shouldnt take the whole day. bring your truck over and i should be able to help you out, ill have a plasma cutter, welder, and last resort duct tape. haha ill PM you my number. im not tryin to take anything away from the cave but the 30th seems like its gonna be a BUSY day thanks to santa!

DIESELDENT

bigerksg2, were are yall runing the line to get the boost i just got done with the egt and trans temp and not sure where to tie it in to. its an autometer mechanical guage.

scottsjeeprolet

I've got an extra boost bolt in the Cave.

DIESELDENT

Ill bring that truck up on the 30th and see if we could fit it in, it shouldnt take long all the lines are run. it just came with a T fitting that wouldnt fit anywhere.

Scotte is referring to a "boost bolt" that replaces one of your intake bolts, you run the tubing directly from that bolt to the gauge and you are good to go.

Sounds like we'll have a few projects outside of the cave as well as inside, but bring it on, we'll get it done one way or another.

DIESELDENT

ok, sounds better than anything i was thinking up. let me know if you need me to bring any thing else.
