I used to work for a company that had several 6.0L Ford's, one 2008 6.4L and a couple 6.7L trucks. The 6.0's broke down on a regular basis and the 6.7's had issues also. The F250 with the 6.4 was the most reliable truck in the fleet. It had almost 300k miles on it when I left the company and still running strong. It also had an engine mounted generator and would run for several hours at a time. Sometimes it would stay at a high idle for 24 hours while using it for the testing we did. It had way more hours than a truck that would 300k miles. It must have been a unicorn.

Yeah a little trick for the forklift, at the end of the forks drill two big holes (One hole in each prong) and get a bolt with two nuts and tighten the two nuts together to make the bolt protrude about 3 inch on the top side it stops it from slipping off and causing injuries to others and gives you more pulling force since you don't have to worry about it slipping off and you can use it as regular forklift afterwards with the bolts removed

[@nbowling10trio]

You guys are awesome tackling that swap. Ford diesels by 2010 should be as good or better than a cummins. Number one selling truck/vehicle for 36 years should have best parts money can buy. Dammit ford get it together. No wonder Ford having to downsize

Yes, your mods would get more power, but I just used propane injection and a slightly larger turbo. I wanted the power, but didn't want the stack smoke that your mods would cause. More fuel into a diesel ALWAYS MEANS BIGGER TURBO TO PUSH MORE AIR. DIESEL NEEDS AIR TO BURN THE FUEL!

[@billw4746]

Fords have the nicest interiors. That P pump Cummins will make a very good power plant for the Ford. Cummins have such a great torque curve they are fun to drive. I put a VE 12 valve Cummins in an 85 F250 and used a ZF 5 spd tranny. I did this conversion back in 1999 back before conversions became popular. The F250 had a 460 but after the conversion I doubled the fuel mileage. I can now drive 600 miles without stopping for fuel. At that time the only part I could purchase was the transmission adapter. Every thing else was fabricated. I did use a radiator and air charge cooler out of a 93 Dodge. I am still using that old Ford. But I am looking for a Ford Superduty to re transplant that engine.

[@michaelwaller8252]

@@cryinglaughter6792 Why upgrade? Any Cummins upgrade from what he already has would mean a computer controlled engine, and would get worse fuel mileage than the 12 valve! Sure, a 24 valve has more power...but it's not worth the fuel mileage. My dad had a 12 valve that was getting 28MPG on the interstate unloaded, and his 2005 24 valve gets 18.5 MPG... I'd prefer the fuel mileage, since the 12 valve has enough torque to grenade any Chrysler/Dodge/Ford Automatic hooked to it under full torque conditions pulling a gooseneck with a bulldozer on it's back
