Thanks to SpendOne, I have another decision to make. I just picked up a Cummins 4BT(unknown condition). I will run a compression test on it to see if its good, then decide if I want to run it in the Jeep. I wanted to build a 4BT from the beginning, but I could not afford to purchase a core then build it up and a free 6.2 Detroit came to me. After being built, I keep reading how the 6.2/6.5s like to belch the crank thru the oilpan without warning under no load at 12psi boost.

I think if the Cummins checks out ok, it is going in the truck.


She's a biggin'



*note the Mini engine in the background here....another project for another day picked up at an auction Saturday.



Some extra parts
