So much for a dumb question. Believe it or not I had bought a used rebuilt 6bt and a 540 np set up with overdrive, that a maching shop mated to the 6bt for me with an output shaft for the ff and I was going to put it in my 63 WM, but the **** hit the fan so to speak and I had to sell the cummins, and even sold the front and rear axles. I still have the frame and the cab and the 5 speed, but soon hope to go on a look for a parts truck hopefully with a better cab. Then the big if of what motor. Lots of hills and curves on the highways here so 60mph would be plenty for me. Diesel and gasoline are almost $4, propane works out about 40% less in cost.
