Hi,
My names Andrew I have a 1993 Chevy 2500 6.5 That I just recently blew the engine in and I am looking to convert it to a 5.9 cummins and I was wondering were I could find a wiring harness and a adapter plate for the trans. I would greatly appreciate some help.

 

you'll probably have to get the cummin's trans and wireing harness... i dont think anybody makes it.. BUT i could be wrong... 8-98 chevy wwith a cummin's in it on craigslist.. it looked very nice!!.. keep us posted..oh and welcome to the forum!

 

Thanks for ur take on the idea and thanks for the welcome and ill keep the progress posted

 

also you might be able to make a plate for it..and take it to a machine shop... you might need a diff flywheel.. i think your better off just getting a trans from the cummings and call it a day!...

 

ya im gonna talk to a couple tech. buddys i have an see wat they say thanks for the ideas though

 

the new diesel power magazine (jan 2011) on page 188, has an article titled "swapping a cummings into anything" with a list of references for conversion parts. check out "destroked. com for stand alone ecm's and adapters. on page 170 of the same magazine they have an article on a cummins powered suburban.
