Yes, a 5.9 with intercooler will fit inside a A2 engine compartment. Check out this thread- http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce/20504-experimental-deuce.html . It's pics of the M35A3 prototype I mentioned earlier.

There was the M35A3 prototype that had a 5.9 Cummins and a2 sheetmetal. Why on earth the government didn't go with it is beyond me. I've even seen a couple sell on GL (or was it GSA?) so they are out there. It's my understanding that they made several production units but most went overseas.

:ditto: I guess you could modify the truck to where the hood didn't slope upward but you'd have to raise the cab. The only problem I can think of with raising the cab would be a few linkages and you'd have to modify the steering shaft.
