Re: K30 Downgrade to Cummins Project

Just sold the 502 engine with forged internals. I hope I wont regret it, this torque and power isn't cheap to get, and when i get that old camaro.... Anyways, I think the sale price was fair and I've now recouped half of what I have in the truck. Now that I have cash in hand, she is going to come out and then I can start taking measurements for building an Xmember that will allow me to keep suspension lift to a minimum. Really want to keep it practical for cross country trips.

I'm wondering if I should pull the core support now or wait until i have the xmember designed. It may make it easier to yank the driveline now i suppose.
