This is an in depth walk around of my 1984 Chevy k20 swapped with 1991 Dodge Cummins running gear. If you like the video plz subscribe and comment down below if you would like to see more. You can see more on my Instagram @ torivassalli
Love it when people can hold onto thier cars since highschool. Still have a beaten and worn, and due for some serious tlc 79' mustang I got in the early 90's and drove untill around 2008ish. I finally parked it in the barn for now.
I need to get a garage so i can finish up my square body chevy want to fully re wire it and wire brush the frame and put some undercoat on it. then finish the interior. also looking into just getting a K5 blazer and selling the 1975 k20.
Your givin me ideas... I have a C30 tank, and my neighbor has a 24 valve with low miles rotting into the ground, still runs nice though just the frames about to snap in half. I'd probably wanna change out my 4.56 gears though lol
Personally I would definitely recommend switching to a higher gear I have 3.54 gears in this truck and it does amazing when I had different tires it would run 70mph down the highway in 5th gear no problem but it all depends on what transmission you have, a 6 speed wouldn’t be too bad with 4.56 gears
2 more questions for you if you don't mind What did do for a transmission cross member Where did you run the exhaust??? There is very little room on passenger side with that transfer case over there
very nice truck i have an 84 c10 that id like to swap myself um if you dont mind me asking what was your budget on this im just trying to get an idea of what i should prepare for
I’ve been wanting to do this for awhile but wasn’t sure how difficult or pricey it would be, definitely seems like it would be worth the time and money to do
Perfect timing with this video! I bought a 1984 K20 last month and am planning on doing a Cummins engine swap from a 1992 donor truck. I heard that you had good clearance between the firewall, but did you have to modify the trans tunnel, or did the Agan fabworks mount provide plenty of space for that as well? I look forward to more videos!
No I did not have to modify the firewall or the trans tunnel to fit my set up I’m also using a get rag 360, I can’t speak for the nv4500 or an auto transmission but I don’t think you would have to modify it either way. Happy I could help!
Awesome build! I'm getting ready for mine and looks like u nailed it! I have trucks and extra parts! Would u know where I could get my gen 1 motor? I'm looking at a 93 dodge dually with 5.9 4/4 and my truck swap is 1986 dually standard cab 4/4 Chevy.
Sorry I just seen this comment! I’m using the factory tank out that came out of the same year square body I just bought it for a 6.2 diesel, that being said I’m pretty sure it’s the same tank as the regular gas tank they put in gas engines. I used rubber fuel lines all the way up to the factory lift pump on the side of the block, high pressure fuel line on the sending side and just regular low pressure fuel line on the return.
Yes! The KSB and grid heater are both on switched 12v toggles on my dash for cold weather, I personally would recommend putting the ksb on a switch Atleast it helps the truck warm up so much better with less injector haze.
That thing is badass. I know you worked hard on that. Is your rear pinion angle correct. It looks off in the video. Not trying to knock you down or anything just trying to help
It may be off a bit I just did my best trying to match the angles with an Angle finder but it ran 70mph down the highway fine with 0 vibration but if I get up towards 75-80 there’s a small vibration so it’s somthing I will definitely check out!! Thanks for the input!
It was about 45-50 degrees out that day and no I did not drive it the previous day, it starts almost instantly even on cold weather this is only a single battery truck too so I’m very impressed with it.
Ya, Cummins are not made for speed, all of the Cummins really don’t go past 4 to 5k in rpm, so it’s more made for torque, not speed, I bet that truck is a towing machine
