My long term hope is to make a vegi-oil tow rig out of a 109 project I'm playing with. Looking for good millage, longevity, the ability to run multiple low grade fuels and hold 75 up hill. Not looking to make a hot rod.
With that in mind, a friend of mine practically gave me a mid ninety's heavy duty dodge ram with the Cummings turbo charged 6 cylinder in it. Quite a power house but I don't know too much about it other than the weight which is supposed to be around 900 lbs. The dodge truck has about 140,000 miles on it but seems to run well. However, still this may not be the best motor for the job...
Anyone know what the weight of the 2.25 lump is?
My first concern is making the truck unstable by making it too heavy in the front. Drive train and shoe horning would come later.
