Here is my 2000 Excursion that I will be installing a 12 valve. The V10 and the 4R100 are out. I will be building the 4R100 to handle the diesel.




The V10 has a rod knock. Any one need this?

 

Here is the 12 valve I will be using. Not many miles since rebuild, maybe about 3,500. Has a leaking head gasket I need to fix. Will probly o-ring it also. I might be adding another turbo.



Here is the truck I took it out of. Had to much rust.

 

too much rust...lol ok i need your too much rust truck!!!!

 

Keep us updated. I kept the 47re that was behind the cummins when I did my swap. I wish I would have taken more pics.

 

LOL, I was thinking the same thing, I need to post a few pics of the 79 I am pulling my 4BT from that has too much rust.......

 

I installed the 5.9 in my 89 suburban a little over 2 years ago. The suburban has alot of rust in the back end under the rear doors. I pulled the engine and sold it. Have not made much progress the last couple of weeks. We have about 54 inches of snow on the ground, all within 2 weeks. What a mess! I will get some more pictures up soon.

Is that a Camaro I see in the background?

You should swap that V-10 in there!

 

if that is a camaro i would have to respectfully disagree with that idea!....putting a ford motor in a chevy is agaist the law in all 50 states....and canada!....punishable by death.... or at least it should be IMO

 

Oh yeah...good point.

Don't kill me!

 

i'll let it slide THIS time......

 

Boys, that's a 68-72 Nova...... Don't sacrilege it by uttering the word Camaro in it's presence.

Bet ya can't tell what I own by that statement........

 

I'm not worthy.

Good eye...I'm gonna say you have a Corvair.

At least I got the Chevy part right!

 

My dad had a 72 Nova, 350, 4spd. He said it had headers and carb work. It ran 128mph @ 15 secs in the 1/4. I asked why so fast while a slow time. His reply, it took til 4th gear and 75mph before it would hook.

 

ok the fun is over!, we've completely hi-jacked this thread, and i would like to apologize! i'm sorry and will be looking to forward to hearing more on your swap!

 

69 Nova Is what it is, a long ago project that never got finished.

Well I pulled the head off yesterday, and today I set it up in the bridgeport and cut it for o-rings. Got a new ATS manifold today. Will order gaskets next week and get it back together. Going to reseal the vaccum pump also, it's leaking oil.
