Guys, I wish to heck I had taken a foto of the Cummins turbodiesel in a International Scout I saw last summer. The "thing" passed by as I was working on my 300TD, and I instantly stood up to see where the diesel was, but it looked so stock I couldn't figure what I was hearing. The driver parked nearby. When I approached him about the sound, he popped the hood and showed me. It was a big TDI Cummins, shoehorned in to say the least. He had a big intercooler in front of the radiator, too. He said the thing would burn rubber in third gear with little stock tires, and I believe it lacked a limited slip differential.
Yaahooey! I want one in a 300D! :p
