Amassing all that knowledge, going to auctions for years, making sound business decisions, starting a UA-cam channel; and couldn't legally have a beer until today. That's Amazing.
Love this, the look on Westens face taking out the Fummins for it's trial run was an absolute picture, after all the hard work the satisfaction of seeing everything coming together is the driving force behind you enthusiasm, great stuff, look forward to every video watching this at home in Manchester UK.
Happy Birthday. You definitely show me I'm getting old when I realize your 21st birthday means your 97 Ford 350 is older than you and was when I was a Freshman in high school. But your videos are entertaining and worthwhile to many.
@@legitsu_ so? Doesn’t mean they can’t get off a game and learn something. You don’t need to have money or trucks to learn about them. And imagine coming to a comment from a year ago and talkin shit
Hey Westen, I did this same swap about a year ago. Love it, i'm sure you will too! Currently running a BorgWarner S364/68/.9 charger, and with proper trans tuning and usable lockup, its a good size charger for street and towing. Im around 500-550hp with FASS and normal mild 12V upgrades.
I really enjoy seeing the unbridaled joy you have for this project. Love the videos. Just watched all the fummins. Cant wait to see what the future holds for this truck.
For sure a compound variable G turbo setup to keep that whistle singing, and then a nice 4 trumpet train horn for when someone makes it stop unexpectedly. I have one in my rig, with a little toggle switch to go between, "move please" to "GTFO THE WAY" real quick. Happy birthday Westen! May your new steed serve you well.
What a birthday present for you Westen, your first drive with the "Fummins" and it truly was a success!! Love hearing Garrett interacting more!! Keep up the good work and keep these videos cummin!! Love ya lots. 120K subscribers!! Too cool.
So since 1997 (my 1st Cummins), I've always said...my perfect truck is a Ford with a cummins. PS For your age sir, you are very articulate, knowledgeable and a way of explaining details in a straight forward manner easy to understand. GREAT ATTITUDE AND FANTASTIC VIDS. happy to find your channel
Something I started doing for filming. If I'm going to mostly be working on the front of whatever it is, if I can, I back it into the shop. Then the light is shining on it instead of overexposing the camera. Great video as always! Stocked to see this thing running. Hoping to build a CR cummins dually soon if I can find a good blown 6.4 to start with.
I like it dude! I have an 02 2500 Dodge w/Cummins, I bought new. I still drive her every day, and I seriously would take off for the west coast in it as soon as I changed the filters and fluids. But what you have right there.... Yeah, that's what every diesel pickup truck driver wants. A newer Ferd chassis and body with a first or second generation Cummins. Dream truck.
Happy Birthday young man! I thought you'd be older with all the knowledge you've shown us here on your site. You got a Fummins for your birthday! Congrats!
Happy birthday Westen. Thank you for posting content. You're really good at it and your mechanical problem solving skills are impressive... Particularly for how young you are. I hope my son becomes like you.
I just love that you are re-purposing older trucks which would be otherwise sent to the crusher. It's in reality the greenest, best thing for the environment! All the energy inputs that went into the truck are saved. Great stuff!
Also I think we are all ready for it... TAKE IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP "Um excuse but could y'all see why my check engine light is on??!l" Be sure* to remove the mid engine power stroke first!! 😂😂👍🏻😁
It's nice to see someone without a pristine garage and shameless Snap on tool plugs every 5 mins. You are in touch with most of us DIY guys and very in depth without being a dick. Made a subscriber out of me keep it up brother!
Check the track bar balljoint and bushing, I see those go bad all the time and check steering stabilizer those are know to have a small part in the death wobble also
I'm a ford girl I love my fords you did a really nice truck I love it happy late birthday and I can't believe your only 21 and your a such an amazing mechanic taking a Cummins engine and putting it into a ford sounds amazing!!!!!
Good job dude! Was fun to watch the process. Good to watch someone that doesn't buy everything new and throw money at it to fix the problems. Regular guy doing regular fixes!
My 1981 still used Type F. Poured half a can of water in it oops open can under the slider. It was in there 3 weeks (4,000 miles) before I could flush it. No damage always worked great.
I think 3 things 1) harbor freight sells a mechanics pad its awesome for laying on gravel or to put your knees on when you're working on brakes. 2) watch your video look at your jeans and shirt THINK ABOUT ONLY WEARING BLACK JEANS THEY DON'T SHOW DIRT AS MUCH 3) ITS A FORD you are LUCKY IF YOU MAKE IT HOME WITHOUT 300 POUNDS OF PARTS FALLING OFF
When I worked at Cummins for ten years back in the 1980s I repowered several 12 vave Cummins in Dodges, Chevy, Ford 1 tons and a lot of Deck cranes for Belger Cartage.
Happy birthday man. When asked, " is the glass half empty, or half full?" Always reply, " it's too damn big" Ps. You can fix that check engine light with some black electrical tape. 👍
Really enjoyed your videos on the swap I have a 2003 with a 6.0 so far no troubles it's stock only has 64000 miles I think if I buy a new truck it will be a Dodge with a Cummings
First time viewer, and now a subscriber! Have to go back and start the build process of this beauty. Love your humor and content! Greeting from commifornia!
Great job Wesson proud of you ain't nothing like a good sounding Cummings motor I really like watching your videos God bless and thank you for having so many members View and your videos
That turbo whine sounds so good. Enjoy you super Cummins. Awesome job in putting it together. Still needs work but you’ll fix it for sure. Until your next video. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Well I’m two days late, so happy belated birthday bud. It’s nice to see someone your age with as much knowledge as us older people, if not more in some areas.
Westen if the budget allows twin turbos might be the best ticket! Great job on getting the Fummins operational! Already stoked to see what you have in store for the Fummins! Also looking forward to the Mustang rebuild!
Happy Birthday! Great stuff as usual! Glad she runs and survived the test drive....I am sure I am the minority here but I would be fine if the only smoke comes from your candles on the cake and perhaps a celebratory attitude adjustment....lol....rolling coal needs to go away!
Not only this is a crew cab with a long bed. (Which is amazing, Always wanted one of those specs on a truck) But with the best diesel sounding engine.. Wow. I'm jealous. Lmao.
Your mechanics knowledge is expressive for just a 21yo big time respect bro
Lol almost 200 likes on this comment. "Expressive" wat
He's a hustler I'm there too
Ngl, I thought he was just joking about turning 21.
I am only 19 and a diesel mechanic
Happy late birthday
Amassing all that knowledge, going to auctions for years, making sound business decisions, starting a UA-cam channel; and couldn't legally have a beer until today. That's Amazing.
theboz 81 we need more like him to save the future
just as you don't take Weston as an example and say that alcohol is bad and we should get rid of it cause look at how great he's doing without it, lol
I know thats right
@@cmusic52 I could agree. But, as having a great success, an adult beverage is WELL deserved. And down right delicious.
theboz 81 you actually think he’s 21... 😂😂😂
You were doing 70 with an unbolted cab!!!
Brings a new meaning to death wobble!!!
That's what I was thinking... Didn't even faze him lol
While not wearing a seatbelt
What the hell good is a seatbelt when the cab isn't even bolted down 😂
@@trenton1880 keep him in the cab...
Ehh these things happen
When I was 21, I was young dumb and broke 😂😂lol. Happy birthday western, my favorite rebuild channel
I think he was raised by people that are strong, smart, and resilient.
Love this, the look on Westens face taking out the Fummins for it's trial run was an absolute picture, after all the hard work the satisfaction of seeing everything coming together is the driving force behind you enthusiasm, great stuff, look forward to every video watching this at home in Manchester UK.
All I want for my Birthday is FUMMINS!
Also happy birthday man
Supercharge it
Wow, happy birthday young man!
Happy birthday my dude!
Weston it was my birthday too on the 23rd. If you ever don’t want a fundings I want one
Well happy birthday and I have a great day
Happy birthday! Thought you were at least 30! Great work man!
Same here
As did I, Happy Birthday young guy!!
just imagine without beard.
Happy Birthday. You definitely show me I'm getting old when I realize your 21st birthday means your 97 Ford 350 is older than you and was when I was a Freshman in high school. But your videos are entertaining and worthwhile to many.
I thought late 30s or early 40s. Take care of yourself Weston, you only live once bud!
wth you’re 21 and know so much about trucks, good for you man! Happy birthday btw🤟🏽
It's called not sitting in front of a computer or xbox gaming 24/7 :)
@@RSanders not every kid has junk trucks to work on or the money to fix them

“THE HORN EVEN WORKS!!! We messed something up.” 😂
You're only 21? And happy birthday
Trevor Stringer cool youngster! Really bight mechanically! Way to many looser druggies can’t do anything! Hope the best for you this year !😎
I wish you the best. Keep up the good actitud
Happy birthday!
Can I see you take it to the ford dealership for an oil change and attach a hidden camera somewhere in the hood..
That is an excellent idea.
Hondaru on boosted Bois did this lol
Do it !!!!
Pllllleeeeaaaassseeee
that is a genius idea. i really hope he does this

If they removed the cab and left the bolts loose be sure and check the steering shaft bolts don’t want the steering to fail at 70
on top of possible death wobble...
OMG, you;re right! I hope he does inspect it all!!!
I think you just solved the death wobble.
Charles Sadler yea I was thinking that
What a birthday present for you Westen, your first drive with the "Fummins" and it truly was a success!! Love hearing Garrett interacting more!! Keep up the good work and keep these videos cummin!! Love ya lots. 120K subscribers!! Too cool.
Dom with the mullet, you sir are a true American 🦅
I work for oreillys as well and my commercial manager has a mullet and joe dirt beard

Awesome to see this done! Can’t believe how big your channel has gotten in the last few months! Congrats man! Can we see some more tractor videos?!?
this is by far the best UA-cam channel I have seen. just a good ole boy. keep it up. I'm gathering parts to do a 12v swap in my 1990 bronco.
Something I started doing for filming. If I'm going to mostly be working on the front of whatever it is, if I can, I back it into the shop. Then the light is shining on it instead of overexposing the camera. Great video as always! Stocked to see this thing running. Hoping to build a CR cummins dually soon if I can find a good blown 6.4 to start with.
Also the antenna hitting the garage door as you back out always reminds me of building my roomates cummins swapped ramcharger in our 2 car garage.
1 year later and you got your dream truck taylor. After watching the 2 of you I want to do a Cummins swap on my 6.4l.
Twin compound turbos. Keep them spooled in the Fummins. Also happy birthday 🥳.
69th like. Nice.

Happy Birthday young man! I thought you'd be older with all the knowledge you've shown us here on your site.
You got a Fummins for your birthday! Congrats!
Westen, its amazing how much you know about vehicles at just 21...happy birthday and awesome videos
Happy birthday Westen. Thank you for posting content. You're really good at it and your mechanical problem solving skills are impressive... Particularly for how young you are. I hope my son becomes like you.
That is THE dream truck, nice & de-stroked. I've seen a lot of families at the campgrounds with young factory fords (
Thank God! Someone on youtube finally knows how to pour a bottle!
Happy birthday westen , with all you're mechanical knowledge I thought you were a bit older.
put fummins badges on the truck
"I got a lot of luck, but most of it`s BAD" ahahah - good one! Adore the attitude of yours, brother. Greetings from Russia, love your chanell!
thanks youre a little ways away lol
It looks like a Ford but sounds like a Dodge I LOVE IT
Wear your seatbelt!!!
And here's a better name than "Fummins"... Call it an F-359.
*Y E S*
always gotta be one
F369. Because all the original parts are in the back seat. XD
I just love that you are re-purposing older trucks which would be otherwise sent to the crusher. It's in reality the greenest, best thing for the environment! All the energy inputs that went into the truck are saved. Great stuff!
This man just turned 21?! Thought he was like 30
21!? Thought you were 35!!!
Happy birthday man!
Matthew S glad I’m not the only one who thought that
Same. He looks and sounds 30 something lol
I think its a joke.. He is not 21.
Congratulation guys, that is a win no matter what. Can't get enough of that turbo 😏
You did a fantastic job. That baby is screaming power. For twenty one years old dude you have a great future ahead.
Definitely compound turbos. ..cut out the lag that you would get with the one big turbo. Really enjoy your channel, thanks for posting.
Yeah that antenna has caught some major hell through all of this this! 🤣
Happy 21 dude🎈🍻🍺💯❗️
7:03
Underrated moment 😂
One BIG turbo, keep it simple. Also, congrats on that first drive! Sounds AMAZING BRO! You did an AWESOME job.
Also I think we are all ready for it...
TAKE IT TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP
"Um excuse but could y'all see why my check engine light is on??!l"
Be sure* to remove the mid engine power stroke first!! 😂😂👍🏻😁
A Rancho dual steering wheel stabilizer took my death wobbles away for good on my 2008 F-350 long bed lariat. Cheap easy fix!
I have that on my 250. Works great. Need to replace it soon tho, get in a little rusty.
Big Single, everyone's using a compound set up these days. Love what you guys are doing, keep it up!
With a Cummins it's now a real Super Duty.👍 Now take a bow Master Mechanic 👏 🙌 👌
It's nice to see someone without a pristine garage and shameless Snap on tool plugs every 5 mins. You are in touch with most of us DIY guys and very in depth without being a dick. Made a subscriber out of me keep it up brother!
I think theres a loose connection between the seat and the steering wheel!
Love your channel man!! Can’t wait to see you grow and get into cooler projects ! Like that mustang is awesome !! Keep it up 👍
Laughed my ass off when you hit the driveway and the cab moved!
Hey western love the channel and the videos
Check the track bar balljoint and bushing, I see those go bad all the time and check steering stabilizer those are know to have a small part in the death wobble also
Dude that thing sounds soooo damn good! Such an AWESOME swap, congrats bro!!
Are you going to do a video on what it cost to do this conversion?
Happy birthday Westen. In six days I'll be 55 years old you're catching up with me
Well happy early Birthday bud! Hopefully not to fast
Westen Champlin Yeah... take your time but hurry up and give that mustang some love
I'm a ford girl I love my fords you did a really nice truck I love it happy late birthday and I can't believe your only 21 and your a such an amazing mechanic taking a Cummins engine and putting it into a ford sounds amazing!!!!!
Good job dude! Was fun to watch the process. Good to watch someone that doesn't buy everything new and throw money at it to fix the problems. Regular guy doing regular fixes!
😭😭 you would of had millions of views if the cab flew off
that could’ve been really bad
Westen I was born July 23 1950. Happy belated birthday!!!!
71, WOW!
nice job man. fyi You can put mercon v trans fluid in any ford PS system. That's the fluid ford calls out for in their service manual
30 weight oil works really well... Shut them Ford power steering pumps right up..
My 1981 still used Type F. Poured half a can of water in it oops open can under the slider. It was in there 3 weeks (4,000 miles) before I could flush it. No damage always worked great.
I think 3 things
1) harbor freight sells a mechanics pad its awesome for laying on gravel or to put your knees on when you're working on brakes.

I love his so much. Fords the best, and Cummins is the best😂😂
You got yourself a real gem there!!
That's the best sounding Ford ever built
Westen: Only issue we had was our power-steering
Fummins: Takes offence at that
*Cab falls off*
Compound turbos, happy birthday!
1 big turbo for the fummins and happy birthday westen champlin 👍🏻
Its awesome how jolly u are nd wholesome, Id like to meet u someday fella, keep pumping these vids out 👍
Jordan Howell nd wholesome? Is that where he’s from?
I thought you were luke combs 😂
that’s what i thought
Jesus Rios yeah man
pretty sure he is
9:03 “not overheating, transmission is still cool” **as some warning beeps**
Jokes aside, congrats!!! I’ve been so excited to see this finally drive!
It was dinging because he didn't have his seatbelt on!!!!
Your knowledge is extremely impressive for just turning 21 ! Good stuff bro keep up the great videos!
Hello from Houston, TX! I wish you were closer--I'd love to come sling wrenches with you! Next you need to do an International DT360 swap like I did!
Really enjoyed your videos on the swap I have a 2003 with a 6.0 so far no troubles it's stock only has 64000 miles I think if I buy a new truck it will be a Dodge with a Cummings
2003 with a 6.0? Why would you swap that in?
Man I love this truck .1 big turbo

Cummins, The only engine worth putting in a truck!
Cummins with an Allison Trans in a K30
12 Valves You can't kill them! ( THEY SELF DESTRUCT!!!!! ) lol
34 codes and not one of them mentionned the damned cab about to slide off - tsch.
What the heck dude, 21? Were you born with a full beard🤷🏻♂️ just kidding brother, interesting channel
Born with a wrench in his hand. First word was fummins.
Compound turbos with two blow off valves ...loud & proud cummings
Dom’s mullet game is strong. Very subtle. Regular cut up front and it just eases it’s way into a beaver tail. Please send Dom my regards. :-)
Happy 21st! I'm shocked that you're only 21. I know they remove the cab on these trucks to do engine work.....
ya, thats pretty much how there designed.
Cummins, In a Ford 350 ??, you guys are good...I bet you can fix a broken Heart...
Super common swap.
Ford makes shit diesels. Dodge makes shit plastic and electronics.
Might as well make a truck worth a damn...
Best comment😂😂😂
@@TheDarkToes Lmao i have a Dodge and agree with that but Ford doesnt make shit diesels.
Well they can travel with a Cummins
track bar bushing is likely the problem with the front end.
Or the ball joints, or a combination of the two.
Hi JC
That turbo whine sounds so good. Enjoy you super Cummins. Awesome job in putting it together. Still needs work but you’ll fix it for sure. Until your next video. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Well I about fell out of the chair when you said the Cab moved when you hit a bump. Hell of a build and great video Westen
I just got an ad for Diesel Power Source (DPS) and the dude in the commercial owns a Fummins
EXCELLENT VIDEO! Now, put your dang seat belt on!!!!!!!
I followed this JOB from the beginning...GREAT JOB...Keep up the great work. Lets some roll'en COLE....lol
Well I’m two days late, so happy belated birthday bud. It’s nice to see someone your age with as much knowledge as us older people, if not more in some areas.
Westen if the budget allows twin turbos might be the best ticket! Great job on getting the Fummins operational! Already stoked to see what you have in store for the Fummins! Also looking forward to the Mustang rebuild!
Happy Birthday Westen! Lovin’ the Fummins and where is your badge? Make it say Fummins.
Happy Birthday! Great stuff as usual! Glad she runs and survived the test drive....I am sure I am the minority here but I would be fine if the only smoke comes from your candles on the cake and perhaps a celebratory attitude adjustment....lol....rolling coal needs to go away!
Yeah you're definitely the minority.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉🙏
Very impressive everything you do. Your family must be proud👍
GOD BLESS🙏
Not only this is a crew cab with a long bed. (Which is amazing, Always wanted one of those specs on a truck) But with the best diesel sounding engine.. Wow. I'm jealous. Lmao.
A nice set of twin turbos!!
