I have heard the Cummins can replace a 6.0 but you are the first person I have seen say they actually did it. I plan on keep out truck for many years so when the 6.0 starts having issue, will probably consider changing the engine as opposed to the entire truck. I know the Ford 7.3 is almost a direct change out, but are no longer manufactured so will be harder to find. I also really like Cummins engines. So now a few questions about converting to a Cummins.

1.- Were you able to use the same transmission?
2.- What electronic modifications were required?
3.- Was any of the exhaust system interchangeable?
3.- What was the overall cost when complete?
