International Cabover Truck Duramax Diesel Swap Project Heavy Metal - Stacey David's Gearz S4 E9

Stacey rolls in that old International Cabover Truck, and starts a project called Heavy Metal. The project not only showcases people that work with their hands for a living, but also represents the Navy’s Blue Angels precision flying team. The first order up for business is to get some serious power into the truck and that involves Stacey stuffing a hot rodded Duramax Diesel engine and Allison transmission into the old beast. If you have ever wondered what it takes to retro-fit a big diesel engine into a project, and if there are parts available to make it happen… this show will not only answer those questions, but also encourage you to do it!

Great idea putting a diesel engine in the International, but I'm partial to Cummins

[@frederickburns1739]

As a certified CAT, CUMMINGS mechanic retired I would be using a 5.9 or 8.3 CUMMINGS or a 3208 CAT and definitely not a Allison Duramax!!!

That's an awesome upgraded duramax I'm contacting PPE to upgrade my 2015 Silverado crewcab I could use the extra hp & tourq thank's Stacy 😎👍

I’m not sure if you’re sticking to your original plan to tie it into the blue angels because later you turn it into a tow truck instead of something that represents the blue angels

[@wesmcknight3685]

Where is the finished truck?

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

That Waywo project is cool 😎, but what do you put on the title

[@dwp139]

Wonder if Stacey still has the Little Red Wagon, or if he sold it

[@OfficialStaceyDavid]

Still have it!

​@@OfficialStaceyDavid why not use a PowerStroke diesel or IH 466 diesel ?
