I'll chime in to praise your work. Neatly done, and I like the yellow. If anyone asks, tell them you got the motor from a bulldozer...many are gullible enough to believe you! I would, for shit & giggles of course...
How is the bracing holding up to torque while accelerating? Do you have pictures of your motor mounts?

So far so good with no problems other than a few bolts coming loose...the Cummins is listed as weighing in the neigborhood of 750 lbs and puts out about 125 hp and 325 lbs torque. More than enough power to spin the tires in 1st and 2nd gears
At the request of Jim Oaks I sent him a full series of build pics and a parts list, he said he wanted to add it to the magazine section, so hopefully all the pics will be up soon.
