@josh216882000 what all that work just to be a plow truck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a plow truck is an ol rusted out chevy truck-blazer-or even a subburban!!! that should’ent be a plow truck!!
Hey Josh, I have a 1984 Chevy Silverado with a Corvette LT1 and I’m planning on replacing it with a Detroit Diesel or a Cummins, overall how much did you spend on this project and what issues did you have along the way?
@TjAcura Hey man, Ill have around 5000 into this truck by the time its done. Save yourself some money and buy a running engine for your project. I have 3000 in my motor alone, because I bought my 453T in need of a rebuild and then found it also had a cracked head. The biggest problem ive had, is the truck being a 4×4. The engine is 40 inches tall so its hard to get the clearance on the front axle, and then get it under the hood! I still need a 2″ cowl hood after my lift kit, to get it to shut.
not enough trust me i tried
subscribed! I cant wait to see a part 5 of this truck when more gets completed. Quite the build and its sure good to hear that old Detroit screaming!
love it man. nice looking work.
where is part 5!! i want to see this done!! and whats with the muffler just put a straight pipe on it!!

what detriot engine is that?
awsome want to swap a 6v92 t into a 70’s or 80’s regular cab dually chevy 4wd awsome job man ill know who to ask any questions to
I see all the other fine quality Chevys and GMCs behind this smooth powerful diesel! Nova ROCKS!
very cool project. I got a ’46 ford i am looking to put this same engine in to. What did you choose for a tranny?
sweet truck man i love that detroit you really done it right cant wit to see part 5 when its finished.
A 6V92 is way too heavy for a Dana 60 to support, A 6V53 is as big as you want to go

@randytune88 453T detroit 2 stroke.
@quad4midget yeah the 6v92 is huge, we have them in the M113 armored personnel carriers. so its like trying to fit a semi engine.
Great taste in music and a great truck! Just subbed!
@mongo5888 Thanks for the comment man, and welcome aboard!
This is by far one of the best Detroit Swaps i’ve seen! Great job! Now just get a couple videos of you pulling a 12 Valve Cum a part around town lol!
great project. looks great!!
what is the out of originally
@BIGblocks4life Thanks! That would be youtube gold!
@paver4life If you mean the 453, it came out of a 79′ chevy C60 flatbed crane truck.
Cooler that a big block chevy
Looks like you used the chevy radiator. 3 core or 4 core and how well has it been cooling the Detroit?
