The only thing I REALLY hate about the car is the fact that my name's not on the title.

Of course, if I owned it, I would make babies cry by swapping in a diesel.

Oh... a Cummins fits in there!? I was thinking more of a Duramax because I didn't figure that a Cummins would fit, lol. Thats what I have in mind for my next project. Not sure on specifics though!

Thanks! I will be sure to look that over. I think a V8 style diesel will fit better, I mean the Duramax is only a 6.6, so it would fit better, lol.

No problem. Yeah, I dont know much about diesel swaps but the Duramax may fit better. Either swap would be pretty damn cool lol.
