I will use destroked for some stuff, I would really like to get my questioned answered by someone more experienced, I want to know what destroked does or has to offer about wiring this thing in, ford cummins will build me an adaptable harness using my old 7.3 engine harness (I have and extra one lying around that would be perfect for this). what i dont want to end up with is spliced wires that make it look like an afterthought.

oops Wayne beat me to it LOL..
just got off the phone with the folks at autoworld... they are really awsome, lot of knowlege and really know how to do this conversion.. thanks for the link.:usflag
alright this sucks, just as i think i am gettting a plan together the boss steps in and says sell the truck and buy an excursion to do the conversion on:soapbox is what sucks more than that is excursions are priced high, 30K for a 5 year old vehicle is rediculous. anybody have an excursion they want to sell? i would prefer to buy one with a bad engine or trans because all that is getting pulled anyway, i think i will take robs advice and put a ats 48re tranny in with the motor...
? why an Ex? Is this project for someone else 
That's what I don't get either. I thought this was your truck and your project? Why follow your bosses advice about trading off your truck for an Ex?? why an Ex? Is this project for someone else
i thought this was my project also but she steps in and says that she is not done having kids (I am though) 2 kids is enuff for me:gaah so to make her happy i thought i would look around and see what is out there but even v-10 powered POS's are rediculous so maybe there is hope for the truck :woohoo i know that if i do get one with the 5R110 tranny it will be short lived around my house and it will be replaced with a 4R or maybe use the 48re if rob will let his secret of getting it wired up in the truck:madpoke
alright, everything is back on track, i am putting the cummins in my truck, probally starting in march, the wife is not ahppy with me though:notme anyhow my swamps injectors are for sale as well as the whole motor. le tme know if anyone is interested the stealth has been spoken for so far.
if she wants a kid carrier why not pick up a cheap mini van? LOL Project looks good so far, a well built 48re is just as stout as anything else out there :thumbsup
All the parts are on the way:woohoo, just got off the phone with auto world and bought everything including the painless wiring harness, The only thing now is i have to get moved in to my new place so i can start. much more to follow.:toytruck:toytruck:toytruck:toytruck
It's too bad Ford just doesn't build them with the Cummins.
no kidding it would have saved me a ton of moneyLOLIt's too bad Ford just doesn't build them with the Cummins.
it never ends... just when i think i will be able to start this project i find out i have to go to Iraq..... damn ******** keep interfering with progress:bang.... i will start as soon as i return home:wtf... and i get my tach kit from scott that i have been waiting for, it has been 4 months since i paid for it and still nothing...
Which tach kit do you need? I have the GM one, but it wouldn't be too hard to cut some teeth off.it never ends... just when i think i will be able to start this project i find out i have to go to Iraq..... damn ******** keep interfering with progress:bang.... i will start as soon as i return home:wtf... and i get my tach kit from scott that i have been waiting for, it has been 4 months since i paid for it and still nothing...
