Let's talk about trucks
When I was looking I decided "NO" OHC engines of any kind (I didn't want a 4 whanger). Since there are no Mopar pushrod V8's since? 2000? except the hemi, GM has the LS based, and we -don't- want- a - Ford--------that leaves the Cummins 6, the LS GM stuff, and a hemi Dodge. Many of you remember I had a nice V6 98 Ranger--pushrod--that got wrecked. The OHC that replaces it has something like 3 or 4 timing chains and you pretty much must pull the engine to replace them
All this "partly" is why I'm now tearing apart my 2WD Cummins and a 4WD donor to make a 4WD Cummins out of
