So people would stop saying, "too bad it's a gasser" lol jk I wanted more power and it was super easy to do. It's more efficient and the aftermarket support is insane compared to our V10s.
@@shawnedwards2700 i have a cummins 2nd gen where i live you pay car rego costs based off how many cylinders it has a v10 ram would cost me like 2000 usd a year to keep on the road
Wires weren't much work other than all the new harness ties needing replaced. Maybe a few hours but ive done many harness replacements before. Gaskets took 2 days. There was alot of cleaning involved. Replaced gasket for oil pan, valve cover, oil filter cooler housing(which was leaking the 2nd most), rear main round seal and housing seal, front main, timing cover, vaccum pump and seal (#1 worst leak in my case), tappet cover, thermostat housing, water and oil pump got new gaskets too.
I want to do a single rear wheel to dually I have a v10 that's for sell in my area it's a single cab do you think I can pull the rear diff off and bolt on to my 2500
I live in Central Arkansas. I've scrapped the idea of putting the V10 in the grey truck. I'm thinking of maybe putting it in a single cab short bed 4x4 2nd gen instead. Currently busy trying to find another parts truck with a 1 ton Dana 80 rear axle and 6 speed.
I got a good deal on a parts truck for only 4k. Then with new gaskets for engine and trans, and fluids, about 2k. So maybe 6k and about 120hrs of my own labor. If I had paid someone else to do it they quoted me 25k minimum and 6+ months. I did it myself for less than a 1/4 of that price and it only took me around 2 weeks after I had everything ready for install from the parts truck. It's been 5 months now and I've dailying the truck since day one.
Really like your videos on the v10. I have one and was wondering where ya got the throttle body spacer
Please do a update video, I need to see how the truck is doing
Thats a nice truck. Maybe the diesel will be cheaper to drive?
That’s bad ass what front bumper is that off of
a Ram 2500 4th Gen Bumper
Hey also did you leave the v10 dash wiring harness in the v10 or did you swap the Cummins dash
Freaking badas* build man freaking love thinking about doing that!! Lol. But what’s your wheel and tire and lift setup on that beast? Thanks man!!
Thank you! Factory 16s wrapped in a 37x15 Toyo MT.
What size spacers do you have to run to fit 15.50 tires or did you not have too? Thanxs
Why’d you swap it? Eventually when my v10 craps out I’ll swap it but for now I love everything about it

I’m planning on doing a 3500 dually here soon, how long did it take you to do for swapping wires an also for changing gaskets?

@@shawnedwards2700Is the Abs wired to the computer or is it stand alone? Is it the same for the AC system?
What did you do with the v10?
I want to do a single rear wheel to dually I have a v10 that's for sell in my area it's a single cab do you think I can pull the rear diff off and bolt on to my 2500
swap the v10 in a regular cab, short bed, 2wd 1500
just finished the video, i really do hope you lower, swap, and turbo that silver one
I hope a ram 1500 with the v10 swap
😮
Where you located? What are you doing with the v10?

I’m assuming womanual refers to an auto trans or something?
Can you show were the oil pressure sensor is on the v10
It's right above you oil filter. The entire sensor unscrews after you unplug it. Do not over tighten the new one. Quarter turn past snug.
Motor mounts for the v10 were the same for the 24v?
On the frame yes. On the engine I'm not sure if they are the same. I went ahead used the Cummins mounts tho.
Thats odd i have a 98 short bed with the long 35g tank and it fits just fine from factory
It's not the gallons it's the short bed long bed single cab extended cab thy are all different with humps sticking up on top
How much did it cost roughly to swap to a 24 valve cummins
I got a good deal on a parts truck for only 4k. Then with new gaskets for engine and trans, and fluids, about 2k. So maybe 6k and about 120hrs of my own labor. If I had paid someone else to do it they quoted me 25k minimum and 6+ months.
