Hi from the East Cost,
I have been considering to re-power the 99 shamrock 26′ express from the 5.7 gas Sea max for long time to power Diesel to get more fuel efficiency per Gal and long range .
what is the right eng application or the right fit for this 99 26′ Express.
Is Cummins like 6BT 215hp~250hp with the current ZF to keep the existing 1 1/4 shaft will be the right fit for this project ?
what is the cost associated with it assuming the existing Zf will do the job.
Would i really achieve the goal i am after with fuel consumption and range. Currently i am getting around 2mpg and that is ruff guess could be less or right onIs there any other Engines of a choice that will provide better weight , efficiency ,Most important reliability at decent price.
i will be doing all the the work. But i like to hear all your thoughts specially from members who done it and the Cummins experts on here.
Thanks in advance . i will follow with some pic of the Eng bay soon
