Clean Classic Suburban cummins 12v 6bt turbo nv4500 swap - fresh paint - lowered - over 15,000 miles since swap - was daily driven in Ohio for 14 months....

Current fuel settings are for 500hp and 750 ft-lbs to get 23~26 mpg (18 mpg towing!) - this setup is cappable of well over 1,000 ft-lbs as the NV4500 has the desireable "large" style input shaft. The Cummins stright six turbo has 80K miles and the cylinder head is rebuilt with upgraded 3,500 rpm valve springs and injectors.

The truck has a 14bolt rear end w/ a new detroit trutrac differential and 3.73 gears. It also has firestone ride leveling adjustable air springs in the rear with on-board compressor and psi gauge (see picture of guages) - this really help load level when hauling....In addition it also has front brake "line-lock" that is switch actuated.

I just recently drove this truck 900 miles from Ohio to Maine a few weekends ago and the only things it needs could be re-do interior seat upholstery (it functions as is but is not to the same standard/style as the rest of the truck) and to attach the tachometer sensor in front of crankshaft (tach is installed - just needs line hooked up to bracket), re-pressurize the a/c components if wanted....Other than that this is a daily driver! C/D - heat....etc ready to rock.

Call w. questions and sorry for the "snowy" pictures (zip 04005 Biddeford, Maine!)

Working on INT. Pics....Rust is virtually non-existent...frame is spotless - body has a few small creases/areas showing some initial surface rust but - NO rot - all cosmetic.

Is that the stock ride height in the front? Seems lowered. Definately a cool rig. The A/C compressor is on the engine now - just needs hoses?

No - it is dropped/lowered w/ HD springs front and rear & heght adjustable air bags/springs in rear. A/C components there - needs hoses and pressurized.

wow, I'm impressed. I love it. I drive a cummins daily, and need the dually, but if I weren't a gooseneck tower, I would be on this. the engine and tranny are worth most of that amount, very clean:smokin:
