Yes a list, it'll get checked off quick!

Guess you need to figure out a different engine swap. the v10 has been done before.

I've been thinking of different engine swaps lately... And since I bleed diesel, I think the same engine that is in my wife's X5 would be awesome! I think the 3.5l inline 6 would fit fine, but I am not sure how large the 8spd auto is. But it would make a great package!! Quiet, plenty of power, diesel, but wow it would take someone with a lot of know-how to pull it off!

I'm curious to see how the recent crop of small v6 diesels in the grand Cherokee and Nissan pickups looks once they get old enough to start turning up in junkyards. If the engine management can get figured out they could be a great option.

Yes, and I think they would have plenty of punch to deliver the power! My dream would be a LUBR with a nice diesel in it so I could DD it!

Didn't someone say the 5.0L Cummins V8 was being used in boats already?

Engine management would seem well on the way.

That newfangled diesel stuff is expensive. How about just turbocharged V8?

When you say you need a windshield, are you talking about glass or frame? I thought the other frame that came with it looked to be pretty good. Windshield glass is over rated anyway. The glass in my 66 has been broken for 7-8 years now.

If you can wait a little, RuffStuff usually has a sale for Black Friday. That's where I got my TRE parts.

It may be that the bell and plate are for two different size flywheels. One for 164 tooth and one for 157. Bolt holes (except starter) and dowel holes will match but starter is in different location.

I have a starter or two that will work but my proximity to you may be prohibitive. If you don't find a closer one, let me know.

I think I have an extra manual starter laying around if you need it. I also have a spare 3 speed still under Bronco #2 if it comes to that. I'm sure someone has one just laying around.

I've got starters.Might need to check them,but I have a few.Let me know.

I've got a small wire feed welder you're welcome to borrow. Flux core only. No starters though.

I've got a 3 SPD taking up space that I'd love to give you!

I've got a spare windshield and gasket I haven't gotten around to installing.

I have a Mig welder you can borrow. It's 220v Lincoln 180 with gas

I've got a 110v Lincoln MIG welder with gas you can borrow too if you don't have access to 220.

I should be around tonight...give me a holler. I think you have my number. If not, I can leave it on the back patio for pickup on Thursday...I won't be around then.

I have starter as well if the other doesn't work out...just get the windshield put in...we will remove when painting anyway

I have a starter too but I am a little further away. If the others dont work out you are welcome to it with no need to return.

I found an engine block that would be a torque monster.

Might have to move the firewall back to the tailgate though.

Want. That would make an awesome base for a dining room table.

Let me know how that works out for ya Justin. My boss says H@ll NO
