Cummins crate engine

i just heard that cummins was releasing a 4 cylinder 2.8 liter turbo diesel crate engine... am I the only one whose dreamed of putting a cummins in our tacomas? I know there's company's out there that will put toyotas D4-D Diesel engine in it as well. Has anyone attempted this or planning on swapping for the cummins?

 

I'm betting the answer is no.

 

I think there is a company in Texas that will do it,$25,000.00,ya really gotta want it.

 

Well with the fuel savings alone it should pay for itself...at some point.

 

Just put the 25k in the glove box,live life,any time you need gas ,just reach over

 

4 Cylinder Crate Cummins swap into a Jeep.

 

I think that's dieseltoys that will install the D4-D, they basically give you all new mechanicals on your body. With the cummins, I don't see why any shop that does engine swaps wouldn't be able to do it. The D4-D has to be imported from a downer car in Japan

 

Reason?

 

I

just watched that, that's how I found out about it. Looks cool

 

Too many to list. Tuning would be 1. Cost is another. No real benefit v. cost is 3. Spending $20k plus on an engine in a truck worth 20k is another though..

 

4bt.

 

The cummins is going to cost around 5k. I don't see install costing more than a couple grand. Benefit, power, fuel savings, cool factor etc

 

I've wanted to put a 4bt into my truck, something for the future. You can find 4bt's in all sorts of vehicles in junk yards for around 1k. You'd probably want to rebuild it though.

 

Here's the info from Cummins, copied and pasted below the link

I might be interested if I ever blow up my 5vz, but I haven't even hit 200k yet so...

It was funny because I literally just finished watching it right before clicking on TW.

 

Ditto. I think it would pretty much be like a mini tank with one

 

Same. When I saw it I immediately checked on the cummins website for info about installing one into a tacoma since next to keeps, the tacoma and 4Runner is not me of the top modified trucks out there but they haven't posted anything about putting them in a tacoma yet. Just the wrangler

 

I read everything on their website, it sounds promising. Just gotta wait and see how it goes for the people that do it

 

Yea I've seen a bunch of YouTube videos of guys that put the vw engines or the Mercedes engines in our trucks with success and they run like a top. Just the thinking it might be an option for when our trucks die and if the body isn't rusted out, it would be cheaper than buying a new truck. I plan on running mine until the wheels fall off
