I have a Cummins 5.9L waiting for my truck, but I want to have some fun with my Multifuel before I take it off the road for the conversion. I intend to make my own turbo setup, but I do not know where the port is that needs to be boost referenced.
I am familiar with the Cummins VE pumps, but...
2500rpm would be 97mph in overdrive. 70mph would be 1800rpm, which is perfect for good MPG
The A518 is a 4spd overdrive tranny from a 1993 Dodge Cummins W350 (4x4)
The Willy's is getting a new 4x2" 1/4" wall frame and will weigh as much as the bread truck did. I am putting an A518 auto behind it and 4.10's with 37's. This is a friend's wagon that I am building for him. He didn't want a clutch.
When I bought a bread truck for the 4BT (going in my Willy's Wagon), I drove it home. It had the SM465 and it seemed like a good choice of gear for the motor. It was peppy. The Frito truck had 4.10 with 215/85R16 tires. It had enough grunt to go up a long steep hill at 50mph in 4th.
It doesn't smoke. It puffed the very first time I fired it on the floor. The reason it lopes is I have not hooked up the KSB solenoid yet. It was 40degrees in that video

I just picked up a Cummins 6BT out of a '93 Dodge W250 to replace the LD465 in my truck. I missed out on an SAE #3 housing on ebay, but I will be looking for one.
I am nicknaming my truck "Lucky Charm". I just got requested to have my truck in a movie and the roll of driving it. The executive producer for a movie being filmed here in CT saw my truck and wants it for the zombie movie being filmed!! I have only owned this truck for 2 weeks. I love this...
I got pulled over this morning on my way to work. The cop wanted to look at the truck. He did suggest I move my plate from the pass mud flap to the driver's side. So when I got home I made a license plate bracket and mounted a napa license plate light and ordered (5) 1251 bulbs (spares). Now the...
