New/old Guy in SE Texas

Postby dbshelton » Sun Aug 24, 2014 5:40 am

I finally bought a 1st gen Cummins. I already have a 2004 and a 1994 Cummins trucks, but I wanted a 1st gen to swap into a 1996 Ford E-Super Duty shuttle bus that I use to haul my Cobra replica. I'm a 57 year old kid in Kountze,TX (East of Houston).
I'm sure I'll be asking stupid questions about this engine (1991.5) to get to my goal of 250-300 hp.

Thanks. The bus really worked out well. The 460 runs great so I don't have to be in a hurry getting the Cummins ready.
