that's interesting, Jones, that you went to 12V. since i am planning to do a 5.9 cummins swap, i was on the same fence. but i actually just picked up my spare starter yesterday: i took it to my local starter shop and they rebuilt the cummins starter to 24V. i thought about the fuel shut off solenoid, but those are readily available in 24V also. but my primary plan is to just use a cable like the deuce is set up to avoid solenoid issues and simplify my starting circuit. charging system is the same: 24V alternators readily available to bolt on. i plan to run a converter for 3 guages that still require 12V (tach, EGT, boost).

i just figured, in my plan, it would be easier to change 2 things to 24V rather than 50 things to 12V.

very cool.
