What about acquiring a MBE 900 in. Iirc they are available in a 4cyl... Or if you need more power, the MBE 4000. Iirc they are detroit marketed MB medium and heavy duty truck engines... -- John W Reames jwrea...@comcast.net Home: +14106646986 Mobile: +14437915905 On Nov 12, 2010, at 16:56, Mitch Haley m...@voyager.net wrote: Walt Zarnoch wrote: I'd rather have a high reving Benz engine anyways, the Cummins would likely need a tranny swap or .7:1 diff gearing to do anything but pull stumps.

Re: [MBZ] Young Walt needs this
Find me one and buy me one, and I'll gladly do it! The 4000 would be one nice powerplant for sure! My shoestring budget is the biggest issue, there's so many things I want to do but can't afford...

Re: [MBZ] Young Walt needs this
That looks huge! I don't know if it'd fit, the 617 already has trouble. I've got my adapter plate finished(except for triming the outside) already, so I'm past my financial point of no return. Next stop, custom lower pan! I'd rather have a high reving Benz engine anyways, the Cummins would likely need a tranny swap or .7:1 diff gearing to do anything but pull stumps. That and EVERYONE swaps a cummins into something...
