      When he said that , I wanted to leave.
      I came to see if I could get any ideas or things I missed on my swap, it was my first Cummins.
      I couldn't care less what he thinks about genders.
      It's something I never in my sixty some years thought or had to think about something that doesn't effect the way my truck runs.
      What's the fuck are you worried about such crap?
      Make your truck run great.

    My summit mounts tilted my motor to the passenger side slightly. Not sure why.

    • @samstrucks
      @samstrucks  Рік тому

      They didn’t tell your motor, the rubber insulators on the frame side are what would’ve done that. In an early video I explained how to modify them to keep that from happening. You can actually fix that problem even with the engine still in the truck but you will have to have the engine lift it up so that the wait is off the rubber mounts for a few days

    Nobody on UA-cam does the complete conversion only bits and pieces example the fuel tank what did you have to do? Did you have to box the frame I’ve got a 1966 C 20 Chev stepside I want to put first GEN Cummings in do you think I have to change the crossmember to a suburban crossmember in order to get the motor mounts to fit? Should be fairly easy I have no. AC or power brakes lots of room run electric fans…. Any help would be appreciated. Love the video. and you’re absolutely right. Keep the wiring simple and neat.
