Ready for the Cummins!

[Croatan_Kid]

Well...I finally broke down and pulled the motor out of my truck yesterday! So all of the stuff I have in the for sale section is out and ready to be sold!


I'm excited, I just need more money!

 

[scottc]

Sounds great, keep posting with some pics. I have thought about doing this several times to mine.

 

[zb39]

Are you putting in a 12 or 24 valve??

 

[Croatan_Kid]

Early model 12 vavle

When I had the money, you weren't ready. Now that I am facing a layoff, YOU are ready! Storey of my life!

 

[Croatan_Kid]

Whatcha mean?

 

[BobM]

Whatcha mean?

It means that I am broke!
Or the same as. And I WANTED your tranny/T-case!

If you have one with the Bosch P7100 IP you are going to have a heck of a toy. Thats a runnin motor that will take anything you can throw at it. They are also great because unlike the newer engines they have no computer to mess with, and everything as far as performance can be changed with a few wrenches instead of buying a $500 programmer.

 

[Croatan_Kid]

Transmission and transfer case are still for sale, nobody has really been hitting on them much.


Nah, sadly, I've got a VE pumped motor. I was looking for a later model, but this was what I found.

Well you can still tweek a ve just not as much hp as the p7100.

 

[Croatan_Kid]

I've got a few things planned for it...

3200 rpm governor spring
'94 model WH1C 12cm wastegated turbo
4" straight pipe
turn up the fuel
injectors

I'll be happy with about 250 hp and 600 tq

your power goal is very easily achieved with a ve...hardly any trouble at all on a 6bt.you may have to look into more turbo later,but run what you have for now and see what you get for egt's.

i scored this out of a bluebird bus a couple days ago.iv'e decided to go with the 6 in my m-1010.

p-pumped 6btAA,complete with everything.

 

[maritimer]

will one of those fit in a m1009?

 

[Croatan_Kid]

If I do anything, I'll break down and put a bigger turbine housing on the WH1C. I opted to use it over the stock 18cm non-wastegated H1C, plus it had a bit of slack in it.

Dont forget to tab the infamous killer dowel pin on your 12 valve. The information I have from Cummins says that this locating pin poses the greatest risk in 94-98 12 v motors, but has also damaged some of the earlier 12v with the rotary pump.

 

[Croatan_Kid]

Already done it

 

[nk14zp]

Try the h1c first with out an aftercooler I had to watch egt's with stock inj and pump turned up to lock coler .Had the 18.5 cm h1c.

 

[Croatan_Kid]

It's intercooled, not aftercooled. Can't switch between the H1C and WH1C very easily either as the rear of the turbos has a different flange. H1C uses a direct clamp, the WH1C uses a ball flange.

I'm definitely getting boost and EGT gauges.

 

[nk14zp]

hang a 3bt under it watch boost!
