If you move your cursor over the images in your photobucket account it brings up a box with the share/copy options, just click on the bottom one (IMG code) and it will say 'copied', right click and 'paste' the code into your post. That's all I've done to get your photo's here.

Err......umm.......I don't think there is any! He was trying to help with the Cummins conversion question and we (I started it) asked for photo's. Nothing really to do with Patrols but interesting all the same. Mmmmm, Cummins diesel power with big truck reliabillity.

Well I was thinking neat holden conversion, looks real nice. So many of these look ridiculous!

Put a 6.5 chev diesel in it, but no guts and run hot unless you know a few tricks and then 250h/p cranks on the ground. Towed back from SharkBay one year and that was enough. So vp44 pumped 2001 Dodge Cummins Turbo Diesel 235 hp 2800rpm 460 F/P at 1600 standed. Went with Edge tuner extra 120 h/p and 300 F/P over and above standed. NV 4500 5 Speed Lomax 205 3/1 transfer case 14 bolt 3.42 chev diff, ARB locker, exhaust brake, snow water/meth injection, and 8 piston SSBC front calipers. Ha Tony send me your mobile # and i will send you some photos. Are yes and 260 litres of fuel.

Very interesting.

1, Are the gearbox and transfer from the same Dodge that donated the engine?
2, Is it intercooled, if so do you have photo's?
3, 12 or 24 volt engine?
4, What Chev are the diffs out of?
5, How is the fuel economy?
6, How good does it sound, does it have mufflers?

Sorry about all the questions but conversions like this really catch my interest.

Tony

Tell him to buy it, specially if its a manual 5speed.

Quick forum tip for you rotary26, if you click on "reply with quote" instead of just "reply" people can see what post you are replying to. No harm done and I'm really liking your conversion if you hadn't already guessed.

Cummins engine in a GU Patrol. The motor is a stationary motor purchased direct from Cummins brand new.
Was destined for a drill rig or stationary pump. At last count it had blown up a clutch, gearbox and 2 rear lockers.
