    Mustang needs an engine the oil pump locked up. Old cars are fun as long as they don't break coming apart.

    Makes me almost miss my ramcharger. 440 was a lot of fun, but that 747 tranny was replaced with a C6. Dana front and rears were nice.

    This just has a 400. Been thinking about buying a wrecked 12valve cummins and doing a drive train swap.

    Always found it funny that the Diesel Dodges with a snow plow are actually over weight on the front axle.

    That frame isn't built for the diesel engine, but I know a couple guys that have reinforced them and beefed up the front suspension. They were over weight on their stock plates for the the added weight to the truck, but they don't haul anything anyhow. It can be a fun project. 400 wedge would be interesting.

    Was replacing the motor mount on the GP and when I removed the wheel I thought man that wobbled a lot. Tie rod ends ended up being put on as well. Need to get another ball joint to put in as well. One thing to another............

    400 cu in producing 200 hp... sounds about right.

    You need a new top end + cam.
