Cummins into 75 F250 - Competition Diesel.Com

TheTowingCowboy · 04-16-2012, 09:10 PM

Well I hope i dont get beat to bad and I hope you guys can help me. I may be buying a first gen cummins to put in my 1975 F250. And I was wondering cause I cant seem to find them quick but just the parts I would need to put the cummins to a 385 Series bellhousing. So I can keep the good ol granny gear 4! Also motor mounts, if someone can help with that I would appreaciate it. I was always told is you use first gen motor mounts and ford 300-6 frame mounts your good to go. Anyways all info would be appreciated!

Im shore destroked and ford cummins could help you out with both the mounts, if needed and a adapter plate. Thought about maybe a zf6 or later stick?

TheTowingCowboy · 04-17-2012, 07:41 AM

Yeah I have thought about those but problem is I dont wanna convert to hydraulic clutch, which to me seems like it would be a major PITA So I will stick to my 4 spd

You might find more info on 4btswaps.com

hydro clutch would be simple.....

mount the pedal/master cylinder to the firewall, use a later tranny and bolt the slave to the bellhousing

The hydro clutch was simple on my 75 ford.do you have 2wd or 4wd.Alot easier than messing with linkage.

TheTowingCowboy · 04-17-2012, 05:56 PM

4WD and I plan on going with a hydroboost conversion.

2wpuller · 04-17-2012, 07:59 PM

That is what I have is hydro boost its off a 200? chevy 1ton.I have pictures on my thread.Alot better than vacum.

TheTowingCowboy · 04-19-2012, 08:27 PM

My new to me cummins brought to me and bought off Brian Vannest

He so excited to own my first 5.9

2000_fummins · 04-19-2012, 09:18 PM

1st gen non intercooled motor correct? Are you going to upgrade that pump and make it intercooled?

TheTowingCowboy · 04-20-2012, 05:58 PM

Its a throw up what I am going to do. I mainly need to get the truck running and I'll be honest I still live with my mom and dad, so I am going to get the engine mounted and the truck running and moving then I plan on upgrading it. I really want to do a P-Pump conversion, and a cam and anything. I want to make it a bad ass 12V But I am half tempted to see how much can push with a VE Rotary. But yes its a Non Inc engine. I plan on intercooling it, making my own 'Twin Ram' style intake cause I sure aint giving Gale Banks almost 600 dollars for one when I can make one that probably out flows there design. Water/Meth running a 25water/75meth mixture, and a nice big turbo. I dont want to blow much smoke but a nice haze I think would be nice. I also plan on running a full 5 inch exhaust. That being a 5 inch downpipe. Also plan on running a FASS or AirDog system.

EDIT: I assume you guys can help me some on, the technical side of the wiring!!!! I will ask more hten when the time comes but I assume this to be my official thread!

You can have running where its sitting in 10 minutes. Throw fuel to it, 12v's to fuel shuttoff and starter. Prime the sytem, bleed the lines fire her up. Nothing to make a 12 valve run.
