I'm Dale from Modesto. I work for the phone company to pay the bills, and have a diesel performance hobby/passion. My favorite is the DT466 from IH. For nostalgia, I'm going to attempt an all Ford drive train swap in my 67 F100, which will include a 6.6 litre diesel(hopped up of course), mated to an Allison AT545 for simplicity, then taking the brunt of the storm is a Sterling 10.25. Why a Ford 6.6? #1, the Ford script on the valve cover. #2, It's not a Cummins 6BT(nothing against them at all).
Smog rules? HA! This is a spit in the smoggifier's face!
The rig(got a 72 front clip for a good price), it has a DT466(1400+ pounds) in the bed:

Nice project. Keep us posted with updates!

I have to wait til August to get the engine, or unless I can sell stuff to pay for it before then.

One cool thing about the whole swap, is a co worker wants my 300/ 4spd combo to put in a Model A rat rod.
