Chevy C10 with a Cummins 6BT Turbo Diesel

Chevy C10 with a Cummins 6BT turbo dieseL

A few years ago this Chevy C10 truck was powered by a tired 350 ci small-block V8 and four-speed manual transmission. Since then the owner has replaced the V8 with a turbocharged Cummins 6BT diesel inline-six. The inline-six features an upgraded fuel pump and injectors, equal-length twin-scroll exhaust manifold, and Holset HX35W turbocharger. Power will be sent through a ZF five-speed manual with a Clutchfix clutch to a Chevy 12-bolt rear end with factory differential. The owner will eventually upgrade to a Yukon differential. The truck rides on a Western Chassis DS2 shocks, Air Lift DS2600 bags with KNTRL control system, CCP shock mounts, four-link rear suspension, and a set of American Racing AR23 wheels.

  1. Hmmm, its says GMC across the grille. Maybe the author and editor should recheck their facts before they put stuff out.

    1. Maybe you should mind your business and stop giving the author a hard time when he puts out absolutely AMAZING content. No one asked you to come to this page 😉

  2. I am putting a 6bt in my 72 c10, i am trying to figure out which transmission will work for me. This truck on this site went with a ZF is what I am understanding right. what adapter or bell housing is used with it.
