Hi guys. I live in toronto Canada. A few years back my son Jordan wanted me to help him build a 1st generation. So i help him with the truck it turn out awesome. Jordan allways talk about building a 2nd Gen for next father&Son project. But on April 1 2011, Jordan truck broke down on the road. He call me to let me know where he was. He started to walk on the side of the road to the corner gas station. He never made it there. A driver on a cell phoned was not paying attention where he was going ran over my son on the side of the road. Jordan pass away. I am telling you this because Jordan was a big time dodge cummins lover. And made me one to. So i have decided to build a tribute truck to Jordan. So i went out last week and pick up a 1995 Reg cab 4+4 cummins. I need your guys help with the mods. I like the truck to have 550to600hp. I talk to the guys from suncoast about the tran. and i have the Exhaust system proflow dual 5in with 6in tailpipes. That,s all know and have. I need your guys help to build this project . I only want the truck 2to3 inch lifted. I will be useing it for towing.Please help me with the engine combo and the appearance. I will post picture and updates, thanks ever one

 

sorry to hear of your loss and good luck with the truck build

 

Thanks rebal. Thanks everone for the help with the build.

 

Sept 01/2011, Alberta is making it law...No cell phones in vehicles...I hope they really enforce it....

 

Sorry guys. i did not post to make you feel sad. I need your help.With the build. I talk to dtt diesel performance about a trans. They need to no my engine mods first. I have a flow-pro 5"exhaust . I need your guys help to pick a turbo and injector. What number plate i need, 3k or a 4k spring. I want this truck to haul...

 

I have a 100 plate, and it will get warm in OD, but gets down the road good! I don't have 3k springs yet, but I will!! Your on the right track with the tranny, and the pump mods are cheap/free- how could you not like that!! I nearly lost my little girl to cancer, and my heart goes out to you. bruce

 

I am not a 12 valve guy, but I think I have read where if you guy the 4kgs kit you can actually use it as a 3 until you want to go to 4....maybe someone else will chime in and correct me if I am wrong....Good luck with the build!!

whats the budget ?

 

Just leave the little spring out in each flyweight.

 

Thanks guys for the info. Lot,s of room in the budget, Im going to take so pic of the truck, before and after. I bought the truck off a farmer. Paid $1900 for it. It has 370.000 km on it. truck needs new fender, and a box . salt in ontario canada really sucks. I have all the parts on the way from the U.S. Be here after the long weekend. Jordan had $10,000 in his 1Gen. Thats the truck in the profile pic. First thing im doing , is the suspension. all new ever thing. only going 3in lift. and then the body and paint. having a hard time picking a colour. you guys have any ideas. I was thinking red or black and then i like the 2011 dodge ram dark blue.

 

There should be enough tech in the ABDTR#5 group to get you there and more as far as power.

Head studs, gasket, possibly o-ring head, F1-370 or SDX injectors, Compound(twin) turbos, pump mods (GSK, Plate, rack, AFC adjustments). The tranny sounds like its already in the works.


May Jordan's memory live on!

 

I think it's a pretty cool project. I think the new color of the truck should be Jordan's favorite color. Beside that, i would consider a set of twins if you wanted to tow and still keep your power goal. Maybe throw a S400 on the bottom of the stock charger.

 

I talk to the wife she told me jordan favorite color was black and orange , I think im going to run twins, Here a few picture of jordan with his 1st gen. Bring tears to my eyes when i see them
