Finished Project of 1975 Dodge D200 Club Cab 2wd Cummins Swap

Finished Project of 1975 Dodge D200 Club Cab 2wd Cummins Swap

Well it took 10 days and we are finished the project. Only thing left is to put the grill back in when I get my new bosch headlights tomorrow.

http://web.mac.com/rctscanadainc/iWe..._Finished.html

All the cummins electrical systems we moved from the 92 CTD single board ecu are working perfectly; Grid heaters, water in fuel warning, wait to start warning, check engine, charging system, cruise control, lockout and temp safety system for over drive. Dana 70 and drive shaft are installed. Extra fuel tanks are working, the great transfer pump I purchased pumps 4 liters per minute from the side tanks through the floor tank select valve to the main tank.

Tomorrow we fit the new head light bulbs, grill and exhaust system. Test drive tomorrow!

1975 Dodge D200 Club Cab Cummins Swap, driver comments!

With no camper or trailer loads on my 1975 D200 Club Cab Cummins swap truck, boost is 18 psi when under throttle in high gears, I've noticed that boost falls off as rev's build in gears, then boost comes back up again after shifts

Normal?

I Just have the pyro and boost hooked up today. Cruise on steep hills sees 600 F.
Its still balmy warm in Calgary, no need to plug in, mornings are -14C wait to start is 15 to 20 seconds, then it goes. I'm running 15-40, too thick for my liking, cranking is slow but she still starts fine. Second stage grid heaters kick in and burry the stock 75 amp meter on dash. After about 6 kick in and out she stops kicking in and you are still just driving along

Dodge should have had the 75 with this engine and they would have been even further ahead of the pack. Amazing power smoothness and economy. NO SMOKE!

Putting camper back on tomorrow!

Sure, what city do you live in, If this balmy weather holds we are thinking of putting the camper on on heading down to the national monuments, zion and such via salt lake on boxing day.

Do you mean the day 4 pictures? That is some good info, but I was wondering where you put the intercooler and the A/C condenser, along with the oil cooler? I did not notice them in the pictures??
