nope, no dyno yet... with a few pump mods and the extreamly to large turbo im probably at 140 150 hp around 300 lb torque.... its so low geared theres no reason to be any faster... im putting my common rail turbo off my red truck on this year and i have been looking for an overdive unit of some sorts for highway speeds.....

i would have never invested all the money it would have took... i just happen to score the motor form a friend..... yes it is thats my cuz's we actually did his first and it turned out super sweet i had to do it also.... i kinda wish i would have went with a olive drab but thats my only regret with the whole build.... it turned out really well.. i just hit 200 hrs and 3500 miles on the new setup.... havent had a single break down yet.. it blows me away that everything just fell right together and hasent had any problems.... im glad you fellars like it...

nope no grease tank.... the motor and trany mount was cake... honestly i have more time into building the bumpers then doing the motor swap... i made it hard on my self cause when i put the motor in to mock up all the mounts i had the starter removed and just just eyed it... bad idea... i had the cut the ears off the starter and clock it then tig them back on... other than that... easy work... had to build alot of brackets and move some thing around... WORD TO THE WISE you need at least a 2 inch body lift to make it all work right... i went with a 5 inch heavy duty trail gear spring and that was barly enough, if your looking for tonz of flex... glad evereryone is diggin it. thanks guys...
