I plan to remake a 2.8l VM diesel engine found on pre-Fiat jeep wrangler and Liberty Cherokee. I scrach build the turbo, the intercooler (air to air), the instake manifold, but by now I have all my projects unfinished becouse I don't have a razonable space in my new house to keep me building.

Sorry to be bumping a old thread. But there is a company called detail junkees on Facebook they have a Cummings 6bt for sale for 5.25 complete. I don't know if you like to use resin or not just thought I would let you know. Detail junkees website is : www.detailjunkees.com. Happy building
