I think that what you have is a kit to put a engine into and older truck. Those are all parts that you would already have and wouldn't need if you had say an M35. There's even the input shaft and the 4-5 slider gear for the top shaft in the transmission.

Alot of the parts are identical to a standard multifuel, however there are alot of items that are completely different than a standard duece. A few of the smaller items are cummins marked. M-35tom supposidly has seen the parts list and installation manual for this swap and is trying to get me some more info on this kit. I do not want to part it out at this time would rather sell to someone who wants to try and install it. I have seen pictures of foreign trucks with this style exhaust and heat shield but don't remember which country it was. I believe he is probably right that it was a prototype and/or for a foreign govt.

Well I got the 3 page parts list from NC. After 2.5 days of sorting parts I have everything on the list except two brass fittings. I also have the hand written subsystem inventory from the manufacturer that includes the trans shaft/drive gear/radiator hoses. We believe the trans components are to update the 3052 trans to the 3053 w/overdrive. The kit was to swap the 331 gasser to a 5.9 Cummins. The partial kit is not actually a partial but different separate kit for a different application. Oh, and it's still for sale.
