@KennemerKustoms that's awesome, I can't wait to see it, I just recently bought a 97 ram 3500 12v but I'm debating whether to fix the body or just swap an f100 on it
I love all my 2nd gens, especially when they’re clean, but body swaps are always a bit more cool imo. Actually, we’re about to start building a 64 Cadillac on a 99 4x4 Cummins chassis as well once I get this F300 drivable. Will of course post videos of that when it’s going together too lol.
Thank you! I have 3 or 4 videos of other major projects in the works to finish and post first but I am working on this one as much as I can in the meantime.
Thanks! I’m not entirely sure what is done to this engine but was told it had been messed with many years ago. Has an hx40 on it but it wasn’t even hooked up in this video. The p pump still has the factory tamper indicator cables over everything so doesn’t look like it’s been messed with much. My best guess is someone bumped the timing and possibly put slightly bigger injectors. Will figure it out eventually once it’s running down the road. One of the other videos I’m working on is my 650hp “daily” 24 valve build I’m doing so that’ll have a lot more detail into build specs on that one. Will hopefully be posting that video in a month or less.
It was a 1997 Dodge Ram 3500 2wd 12 valve Cummins. Was a nv4500 so it has the bigger 215hp p pump but swapped the transmission to a 48re. Also shorted the frame 25” to get the wheelbase to match the F100.
I know. This was my first time doing it but will step cut next time for sure. Have some beefy 1/4” plate reinforcements going on this one though so it should be plenty strong.
Looking foward to part 2!!!
Me too! Lol. Part 2 is currently in the works.

Badass! I guess I’m not sleeping tonight 😅 I’m doing a 52 f1 and I’ve been slacking. This gave me some motivation
Thank you sir! I’m glad I could be an inspiration to someone who inspires so many others. Good luck on finishing the 52!
Rollin that big boy coal💪
Will be fairly soon lol. Can’t decide on a bed stack or regular exhaust though.
What rear fenders did you use?
wow!!! that's amazing
Looking forward to part 2 soon
Thank you!
I believe your truck is really cool lookin.......
Thank you sir! I don’t think it’s too bad myself lol.
When’s part two coming out I can’t wait to see this thing done looks pretty sweet so far

Looks great, would like to know how you got that 12 valve so "peppy", just a video about that would be be cool.

Great video wanting to do the same swap on my 61 ford f100 🤙🏻
Thank you! That’d be pretty awesome.
What year Dodge / model did you source the chassis and driveline from?

Cool.lookin
Thank you!
Part 2???
It’s currently in the works. Have this build and about 10 others going at the moment so we have plenty of content coming soon.
That is not how you cut a frame!!!! You angle cut or step cut
I know. This was my first time doing it but will step cut next time for sure. Have some beefy 1/4” plate reinforcements going on this one though so it should be plenty strong.
