1952 Willys truck - diesel?
« on: June 10, 2007, 12:25:47 AM »
brainstorming my next project and considering building up my 1952 Willys truck. I am toying with the idea of running a cummins turbo diesel 3.9L 4BT, NV4500, Atlas or Dana 300, built Dana 44's, and 36" tires.  If I can't find the cummins I'll use a 350TBI instead. Sure would be cool to do the diesel though.

Does anybody know where I can find a 3.9L cummins??

Some of the Grumman Stepvans came with a Cummins 4BT.
