5.9 cummins into s-10?

Possible or not? Motor alone weighs 1100 lbs, is it too much of bags to handle safely? I swear I saw it done before but cant find any pics. thanks

better off doin a duramax, its the same dimensions as a SBC.

Yea I thought about that but a lot more money and pain in the ass because of all the wiring and shit.

umm the cummins has wiring too ya know.

Here's two threads from other forums. This is the same guy just two diffrent threads. Started out planning on the cummins, but hes doing duramax now

copy and paste those

Holy shit the cummins has wires no way. Ok rip out of the engine wiring from mechanical b series and from a duramax and putem on a scale and tell me what the diffence is.

haha. thats some funny shit!

he means dropping a cummins in would be like a carb'd SBC, and a duramax would be more along the lines of a LS series motor.

meanwhile, i say do that shit! either or. would be badass for sure!

just curious as to why someone would want to do that?

i am currently putting a duramax into a C-10. It will just be a static dropped short box for a daily driver.

why diesel? because it's better. stronger. Bad ass, and I know how to get more power cheaper.

I work for Bullydog and we have been thinging about puting an LB7 Duramax in my Avalanche most of the wiring is already there and mounts are almost the same.
