the engine and tranny fit better than they did in the m715. the engine is REAL low, and i like it! my center of gravity should be lower than it was stock, which is nice considering the 3/4 ton body was lowered by dodge due to the 1/2 ton propensity to roll.

ill have to move the transmission floor plate hole back, and fab up some extensions for the np205. but all of that looks easy.....

ill have to fab some new engine mounts as the stock GM/Cummins mounts are BELOW the frame! i also need to fab a transmission cross member

Looks good. My next project is to put a 4cyl cummins in my CJ-7. Where did you get the motor? I've been trying to find an auction or place that sells the old bread trucks with the 4 cyl cummins. One of the delivery drivers for Hostess was supposed to get me a number where his company sells them but I havent seen him since we first spoke a couple of weeks ago.
