dmf21209 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 Well, I originally wanted to get into diesel, and then I found my SSS. And as I contemplate every day on what exact setup I wanna go with, I got this bright idea, and googled it.... http://cumminsswap.com/projects.html He did it into an escalade, pretty much same as a swap would go into the ss right? Any thoughts or ideas on this motor swap? Cant beat up to 900hp on a stock bottom end... Quote
ss454327 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 that wack! id do a DMAX first Exactly what I was thinking... Hey I'll admit I've been beaten by a 3/4 ton crew cab with a DMAX in the SS...it pulls a better 60' than his 12.05 TA! Quote
zanis520 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 im with everyone else. y would u put a cummings in a GM? Quote
ces63ss Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 just buy a d-max and add the cladding and bumpers. nothing like a cloud of black smoke pulling on you!! Quote
kweber1911 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 i was gunna buy a dmax before the SS as well...you can make alot of power out of those bad boys. I went with the SS though as i love the sound of a chevy V8 Quote
blackbeast ss Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 if you really want a cummings save your self the headache and just buy a dodge and join a dodge forum J/K Quote
sprayed99 Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 what a waste IMO... buy a D-max truck or a Cummins truck dont hack up a good LSX vehicle. Quote
dmf21209 Posted October 8, 2008 Author Report Posted October 8, 2008 what a waste IMO... buy a D-max truck or a Cummins truck dont hack up a good LSX vehicle. true, but it'd be somethin different. And yeah I could do a dmax also, but have heard of better numbers pulled out of a cummins. The possibility of me actually doin this would be pretty slim to none, but was just wantin to know opinions. I guess the only tricky part would be figurin out how to keep the AWD, for me it'd be tricky anyways... Quote
chpspecial Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 you haven't heard about the efilive tunned DMax with forged bottom end, head studs, upgreaded turbo that made 1200HP and over 2000lb of torque Quote
FireRescueSS Posted October 8, 2008 Report Posted October 8, 2008 Still wished I got the Duramax instead of the SS, only wish I could trade. Quote
