I helped a friend put a 5.9 Cummins that his son built into a MCI Bus conversion in replacement of a DD and the mounting was the most critical aspect of it. Other than that it went pretty slick. He ended up some serious horsepower and torque out of the deal and loves the bus. I told him to buy a Newell and convert one over. The reason I brought this up is that my second Newell I picked up with a 555 and the previous owner filled the tank with gasoline and started to drive it and screwed up a low mileage coach. I picked it up as/is and it got a new triple nickel which turned out to be a nightmare on expense do to a ripoff mechanic down in California.
