Engine Swap
Randy Dupree and his buddy Woody have taken on a major project. Today
they began an engine and tranny transplant on Woody's 1990 Bluebird
Wanderlodge SP. The original 300hp Turbo CAT 3208 and ZF tranny are
being swapped out for a 300hp Turbo Cummins 8.3 and 6 speed Allison
trannny. Work began this morning at 1030am and by 3pm they had the
engine and tranny out. It would have been out earlier if they hadn't
stopped to argue how best to do it. This project will require serious
fabrication including new designs for exhaust, motor mounts, radiator
mounting etc to accomodate an engine that is 8 inches longer than the
original.
More information and photos as soon as I receive them.
