12 valve swap.

[88 one ton]

I had to look up what a 12 valve was.... a cummins and probably their most reliable engine? Is this true? I drove a completely supped up and fully deleted 2008 ram with the 6.7, man with the tuner on the dash that truck didnt know that it was not a super car. It was tonnes of fun to drive as a work truck and I was always up for a good challenge that it never let me down. It wasnt mine and wasnt cheap to maintain, it had the extensive body work and had the engine and drivetrain completely rebuilt 5 months after my boss bought it. Someone took a grinder to the head while they were upgrading to the military head bolts that dont stretch.... dumbass. My boss was wondering why he got such a good deal on it...

Now to have that kind of power and performance in a gmt400. Would be pretty damn cool! I looked up this engine and found a few for sale in my area, they were used in a bunch of different applications besides trucks. What years are best? 94-98?

Yes,those are the best years,they have the good (P) fuel pump. Very easy to make 300 + hp with just doing simple things to the fuel injection pump and that about 900ft lb of torque.

Thank you! If you don’t mind me asking how much do you think you have in this swap?

It was easy for me,never removed the core support,only pulled the diesel out once to cut some material off the trucks engine mount bracket.There are tons of info on the web for these swaps.

I have an extra set of new mounts for 88-99 2-4wd for sale if anybody is interested

How much do the mounts run? It would be a good while until i did the swap but you can never collect parts too soon.

Last seen May of ‘23. I doubt it. If you hover over their name with your cursor or tap on it with your finger, a box pops up and tells you when they were last here.
