My Doner Truck

[DTosh]

I will soon be starting my Cummins Swap in my 89 F350 (see sig) I was able to purchase this truck as my Doner:



Motor Pics:... 1986 Ford F350 Cummins 12V pictures from friends & fun photos on webshots



Truck Pics:... 1986 f350 parts truck pictures from friends & fun photos on webshots



It is a 1986 Ford F350 Crew Cab 2wd non Dually from California. It has 20K on a complete Cummins Reman conversion. the Conversion was done in 2000.



About 10K miles ago a tree fell on the truck and it now has a salvage title. I bought the truck off E-Bay out of Winsconsin.



The nice thing about it is that I should have everything that I need for the swap since it is already in a Ford, Same motor mounts, C6 trans, all of the brackets, cables, hookups for alt, ac, power steering, etc. Everyghing works on the truck Cruise, Ac Tac etc. It looks like the conversion was done correctly.



The only thing different is that I will be installing an intercooler when it gets installed, so I will need to do some plumming.



I plan on starting removing both motors starting the beginning of December and having the truck back on the road in the spring. I just plan on taking my time and doing it right.



I have been driving the 86 and have already installed a bigger turbo, injectors, fuel pin, and all of the pump adjustments. It runs GOOD!. I will also be installing the 3200 gov spring before it goes in Big Ed.



I am shure that I will have a bunch of questions once I get started and also plan on documenting and lots of pics as well.



Later!

There are a couple pics in my RR of the intercooler I installed om my 90, Pretty simple really. A Plasma cutter made it very handy to "customize" the radiator core support to allow fitment of the 3" pipe.



Good luck.



On edit" Make sure you Tab your KDP on that 12V while you have it out.

Hey Crockett, Great Job on the truck. Very Awesome!. Thanks for the input. I spent some time looking at your pics.



What intercooler did you use? I do have a plasma cutter at my disposal and am shure it will get used.



We are going to start removing the Cummins motor the first of December. once it is out we will start on Big Ed. Hope to have it done by spring.



Lots of looks and only one reply,. . ?

I used an intercooler off an 05 6. 0 powerstroke. Keep us updated on the progress with pics and such.

DTosh hasn't been on here since 2011 according to his profile. I'm thinking you're SOL on the pics.

Call the phone number in his profile. That car lot he owns is still in business according to Google.
