It looks to me like the WC Dodge flywheel has the same ring gear as the Cummins flywheel used on Ford & Chevy bread van conversions.
The Ford T19 used on 4bts has the same 1" 10-spline input.
It looks possible that a Power Wagon bellhousing could be redrilled or an adapter plate milled to bolt to the Cummins. Then it might just be a matter of spacers to make the depth right?
Do you reckon a 12V starter for a 230 could spin a diesel?
I suppose few have considerd this cause most want a new-fangled transmission to go with their modern engine? I like my truck old-fangled (right down to double-clutching), but am contemplating compromise for Cummins reliability.
