An update on the Detroit Diesel swap.
I still haven't run the engine, waiting on another blower. Some water had gotten into the intake before I got the engine, and froze inside one of the rotors. When it broke the rotor, it locked up the engine. (One reason I got such a good price.) With the blower off, the engine turns over just fine.
After driving the truck with the four speed and the Brownie, I've decided that the gears don't line up that well. I've decided to go with an automatic when I swap in the diesel. Using the auto will also give me a double overdrive.
