Cummins ISB in a Chevy?

??? Has anyone ever heard of anyone putting a Cummins ISB 145 (4cyl) in a Chevy truck or full-size blazer? Just curious what adaptations would be involved. I'd think it would get good fuel economy. Anyone know?

Re:Cummins ISB in a Chevy?

Thanks y'all for the info. I just thought it would be a fun project, but I think I'll get a Dodge with the Cummins. It'd be easier <br>What kinda MPG are you all getting on the 12V vs. 24V vs. 24V H.O.? What about the '03's

13 is the worst ever. 25 is the best ever. Avg is 15 in the city and 20 on the highway. Both depend on speed and my right foot. ;D
