Anybody done one? Im not talking strictly the frontend sheetmetal, Im talking full interior. Door panels, seats, especially the dash. Would the gauges work with a 7.3? How about a Cummins?

While we're at it, anyone swapped a 6.4/5R110 into an earlier truck?

Just brainstorming some ideas. Thinkin about maybe getting an early Super Duty dually, do the 08 F450 frontend, Harley Edition, complete interior, 22.5s, and eventually either a 6.4/5R110 or just throw a CR Cummins under the hood as a tow rig

I realize just buying a Harley 450 would possibly be cheaper, but thats not happening right now.

ive always wondered about droppin a 6.4 in my 05 but ive never heard of anyone doin it so im not much help here. hopefully someone has something

Anybody got ANYTHING??

Duramaxes are swapped in anything and everything. Cummins are to. Surely a 6.4 can be swapped into the same basic shell as it comes factory in??

Engine/trans/harness, along with a dash? Or am I over simplifying it?

anything is possible..why wouldnt it be..

money..time..patience and you could do it

Id OP for the cummins swap though..

for the most part as far as i know all of the panels will fit, just wiring and all that is different.

anybody ever do the dash swap?

Sounds like you would be better off just buying a newer truck!

[campbellflage]

true but i found a totaled gas one for cheap

Would all fit. But you would need all the wiring the dash and everything including the 6.4 engine and trans.

PCM from a 6.4 truck wont run a 6.0

really? Come on guys there are some fabrication genious's on here. I think it can be done. Not at my skill level which is not that much, but someone has had to have tried this, I know it'll fit, but is there some way to fab up or combine the 08 speedo/tach and the 00 one?
