You can use the GM mounts if you want, thats what I did with polyurethane inserts. You can keep your NV4500 as mentioned, if you use the bread van adapter that ran a manual chevy trans, but your stuck with a smaller clutch IIRC, or use a destroked adapter/flywheel/starter($$$). As Cumminsfever...

I think the line diameter is the same on all 6.5's, older 6.2's being smaller. The fitting diameter is bigger on the DS4's and I think the lines are shorter(DS4 being longer, IIRC), so they wont interchange.

My 6.5 had two wires on the alternator plug, white and brown, how many did yours have? IIRC, the brown wire should be hot with key on, I have that wire hooked to the "I" stud on the alternator. What size of pulley are you running? I have not verified my 54mm pulley with my timing light yet to...

Batt light works fine, I dont know how the light works on these trucks though. Are all the rest of your gauges/lights working on your dash correctly. While I had a ground wire loose under the dash when doing the pedal/column swap and it made my gauges do some funny stuff, but cant remember if...

Ok, that makes sense. I didnt know if you knew all the combinations to put a cummins in front of a NV with a 241 behind it, most guys end up with atleast the back half of the GM 241 so they can keep there speedometer without wiring/converters. Good luck with the build, keep us posted. Heck, I...

How come your using a divorced mount instead of the GM/dodge 241 t-case with the NV?

I'm running my 6.5 tach off a 180amp Delco 22si alternator on my cummins, the tricky part is finding the right pulley. IIRC, I used a 54mm alternator pulley with the 94 5.9 cummins crank pulley, you might want to double check my math. Your dodge/cummins or any common alternator should work...

He's got a 93 Doc, but that trick works good with the 94up trucks, I just use a hose splice to drag the new hose through as the old comes out. Best to just pull the intake unless you wanna relocate the fuel filter, the IP feed line is just to short to get any slack to work in there. Cut the IP...

I have a couple thousand miles on my ENS-3-1121R in my 2wd with the 5.9 cummins setting on them. They seem to be doing great, I was worried about vibrations from the poly with the cummins, it vibrates very little if anymore than the 6.5 did, couldn't ask for much better and holds the cummins...

I hope you figure out the curse of the 94's, so I can fix mine. The truck had 150k on it when I bought it, it now has 180k. I've put in a used set of injectors from my 93(they ran/started fine in the 93), then put in brand new Bosch injectors, 60g's then Bosch Duraterms, glow plug overide...

No need to remove the IP for head gaskets. I second the ARP studs, worth the money.

Cummins used a steel shim/gasket in between. But I just coated both halves with some copper anti-seize, this works just fine if your surfaces are flat. Buddy, I think most of the v-band coupler kits are listed by pipe size, but you have to be careful just because it fits a pipe dont mean it...

What are ya'll doing for a downpipe with this turbo. I see midnightplowboy looks like he made his??? They sell a bolt on flange for the turbine housing so you can get rid of the v-band clamp there and save some space. This way the downpipe bolts directly to the turbo without the v-band...

Oil pressure line, I just used an adapter to go from the GM pipe thread fitting to Holsets metric thread. So its a bolt on deal too. 9235-12-04 and 9500-12MM ,from discounthydraulichose.com The GM line is common 45º flare at the turbo. Few pics here...

Atleast it was the rubber that broke, and not the four spokes that center it. I've got atleast ten of them in the scrap pile that the rubber let loose, atleast there easy to change. The four spokes broke(rubber still good) on my 93 taking the end of the crank with it. Damn china junk.

Thats the same brackets I'm using, its gonna turn out pretty slick. I'm using a different p/n compressor(lines out the side) and I'm gonna try a little different belt routing. Thats a nice well documented write up there with good pictures and part numbers. Hard to find all them part numbers in...

I wish I had some scales. I dont believe the cummins is 350lbs heavier. Especially fully dressed, the cummins power steering pump is lighter(no extra brackets and lighter gear instead of pulley), AC/alternator brackets simpler/lighter, lighter water pump, one exhaust manifold that only weighs as...

Any of them would be ok(89-98), if you just want mild power. They say the 89-93 VE pump engines start better and get a little better fuel mileage on account of the way the timing advance works, I believe this to be true. If you want alot of power get a 94-98early(98-1/2 they went electronic...

Here's a few pics of my 93 chevy with a 94 cummins. http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/album.php?albumid=286 Check this site out, http://www.4btswaps.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?14-Cummins-6BT-5.9-Conversions Here's a guy doing a burb...

Burning oil, I used these, http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ENS-3-1121R , in my 93 2wd diesel shells, fit good. I havent cranked the truck yet though, but think there still soft enough not to vibrate to bad. I would only use factory GM ones(if you can find them) or poly's, the stock replacement...
