Jeff W Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 I'm new to this deal so bear with me..... I found a 1953 B-61 with a bad motor but it's a good old truck otherwise. I have access to a good mack turbo diesel in a mid 70's? R model and I've been told that this motor should bolt right up. My question is what about everything else? How much fabrication needs to be done on everything else? exhaust, radiator hoses, breather tubes, ect. Any info would be appreciated, Thanks.

The best thing to do is give me a call and I can give you a few tips to get you started. My home is 814-225-4266, work is 814-368-4486 and mobile is 814-598-8366. on the weekends call my home, week days, call my work, it is no problem, I have my own business so call anytime.. Jeff.
