I did this swap putting a 5.9 in a gas 806. I used diesel frame rails and the plate from the back of an 806 diesel engine. The plate was redrilled by a shop in Tompkinsville,Ky. The reason for not using the gas plate is that some of the holes in it are too close to where holes would have to be drilled and would have to be filled before drilling so its simpler to use the diesel plate. I think the frame rails and plate cost me about $125 total from a junkyard. There are a couple of quirks in the swap but overall not too bad.I did have some help from a guy who lived and breathes cummins. The 5.9 I used came from a Blue Bird school bus. The pump does not have a governor and I was leery about that. The cummins guy told me it had enough power I didn't really have to have one. So far he is right. He also told me the early dodge with the round pump was more responsive in tractor use. I am absolutely no expert but I love this swap. J.D. Seller is right its to complicated to be practical in a deere. If not I have a 3020 that would have a 4bt in it!

The discussion started out with the following post: "I have an aluminum steering gear housing with a bolt broken off in it. The bolt is about a 3/8" x 1 1/2" bolt. I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
