I saw this in person Sunday. The truck is bad arse! :drool: Nice workmanship/fab work. The Cummins look likes it belongs there. Strong running sweet sounding truck and it will definetly boil the tires! NICE WORK TROUTT!

Did you convert this from DRW to SRW? Did you get the D61 from a 1st Gen Cummins? What is the low down on the TH-475 HD?

Sorry for asking so many questions. This rig is bada$$

Very nice job! I like where you put the rear battery, I wish GM would have done it that way. Did you have any oil pan/axle clearance issues?

No none at all I bought all the adapter plate from Cummins.
also the engine is 5 degree tilt to curb side & 5 degree to the rear.
No clearance issues what so ever.
