    Help picking up an LMTV in Abilene, KS

    Looks like we're going to be there Wednesday. I'm willing to bring a couple batteries and attempt to get it running and take it to your storage place.... If you haven't already got a resolution in place.

    What engine can i use?

    What engine can i use?

    I believe the 6.7 cummins will also fit, as well as the 8.3. DT466 I think fits. And the CAT 🐈 that's used in the M35A3 and the LMTV. But the 5.9 is probably the best choice out of the bunch. Assuming you feel the need to dump the multifuel....
