About engine parts swap

[MidnightDuramax]

I have access to a cummins L10. I was wondering if the exhaust manifold turbo and jakes would work on my cummins 250?

 

[WillWagner]

Huuh, no. Apples and oranges man.

However, if you know the L10 is a runner, it wouldn't take much to put that where the NHC was. The rear is std SAE mounting and you'd just need to move the front mount a bit toward the rear. If it...the L10, is charge air cooled, you'll have plenty of room to stuff the cooling package in the space in front of the engine!!

The L10 would need to be an early mecanical one. It becomes a project if is eletronic.

 

[WillWagner]

Nah, Harnesses are easy. Wouldn't need much except throttle, key switch and battery circuits, maybe a PTO if he wants it.

 

[hemichallenger]

As long as you have the harness. And then you are dealing with an ecm motor.

Not to interested in swapping in an L10. Will eventually swap in an NTC 400 so just looking for a little extra power and the cool factor. So what engines can I source a turbo, manifold, and jake brake from.

Gotta remember, no piston cooling nozzles in the NHC. Start squeezing the intake and bad things can happen. Any NTC manifold will work, get a Holset turbo if you can. One off of a CPL 838 will work nicely. A 300/315 HP engine.
