My engine blew last spring, breaking my heart. As I was a student it took me a while to get together the $5000 or so that it would cost to get a replacement (rebuilt, not new) engine. In the meantime it sat around in various spots, none of which allowed me to do any work on the thing. So I missed all of the nice sunny summer months! Dammit!
But... I got a new one and it is installed. Here's what it comes with, for you gearheads:
2004 Cummins 4BTAA
33,382 miles on it and runs mint
100% complete ready to run
Rated at 130hp/356ftlbs stock
It was in a 04 Cummins Repowered Utilimaster fed-ex type van
Perfect for high performance applications; easily capable of well over 250hp/700ftlbs
P7100 Inline pump (best for performance and fuel economy)
Transmission is a Allison 545 installed with the engine new
Behr air-to-air intercooler
Entire bell pack (starter, adapter plate, flywheel, etc)
Alternator
3" mandrel bent turbo down pipe
3" air intake
New aluminum radiator
Large bar and plate aftermarket transmission cooler
Power steering pump
Hydroboost brake booster
Radiator hoses, coolant overflow tank
Hydraulic motor mounts and cross member
Complete wiring harness and LED warning system
Also, I got another new rear end with a better gearing ratio.

Your van is inspiring. I just bought a 79 Chevy p20 step van with a straight six. I have a lot of work to do but your page will help. Thanks. . I started a blog on here... Check out the van.

Yes, please keep posting. I'm thinking of converting a p30 into a mobile pet grooming van and would love to learn from your challenges.
AHHHHH I got hooked on your story and - you're gonzo! Come back, more story! I'm dreaming up doing pretty much this. Do you still live it in? How long? How's it been? Where do/did you park? Liz in Nashville

Wondering if you've done anything else with the van. I'm starting one now and just picked up a 6BT Cummins and will swap that in and then start on the interior. Would LOVE to know more about this.
