Jonmalibuss Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 We have a fullsize dodge 4x4 at work which has run in the Baja 1000. We recently put the cummins that was in our Dakota in this truck and plumed nitrous and propane into it... Just getting started on the dyno and we are making 690hp at the rear wheels and over 1200ftlbs of torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MN C5 Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Wow very nice numbers..The cummins 5.9 is a great motor 2v or 4v. I've never seen one in a Dakota do you have any pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen one in a Dakota do you have any pictures <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's a 24valve so yeah 4valves pr cylinder this is a stock block, crank, rods and pistons which have all been lightened and balanced. The head has had major porting and polishing done to it with a fabricated exhaust manifold and the stock intake has been cut off the head and the head has been machined flat and we bolted our own intake casting to the head. I don't really have any good pics of it myself but here are some I pulled off our website. The new intake Fabricated exhaust manifold Here is a pic I found from power tour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDoodies Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 That 5.9 is a monster. Most upgradeable diesel engine I've seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
