There were bread delivery type trucks built with 4 cyl Cummins engines. They had adapters on them and ran turbo 400 trans. Dennis has acquired on of these setups after talking with Neil Chance Trans. They have said the can set this up to be bullet-proof behind the Cummins. With the motor limited to 4500 and tire limited to 32". The rear gear needs to be about 2.70. Jim

Hey jim what kind of times does your friend think his dart will run? also how much torque does he think it will make? I found this in my newest Diesel power mag. SO if a 5.9 cummins will fit in a 67 camaro i do not see why it wont fit in a dart. Tell him i said best of luck to him and would like to see some pics when he is done. Mopar65

second pic and let me say this is the only way i would own a chevy camaro lol Mopar65

A local guy just built a Cummins powered Chrysler demolition derby car

Interesting about the Cummins 4 cyl diesels in the bread delivery trucks with GM automatics.

Would that same bell housing made for the Turbo 400 allow you to use a
4 cylinder Cummins
with one of the new GM 6T70 six speed automatics ?

Bobby, what mag is that article on the Camaro in? I don't know if that late GM trans will bolt up in place of a Turbo 400 or not. He's thinking it should make 1500 lb ft of torque and 1000 HP. He want's to run in the 8's with it. He was very successful with his pulling tractor. Knows his stuff on diesel's. Jim
