Now that would be sweet - finish that project off with the
Cummins 3.9L inline 4 or if you're really up for a challenge,
the 5.9. The latter would create some interesting packaging
difficulties though (it fills up the Ram's engine bay, let alone
a Dak!) The 3.9 could probably be hopped up to produce some
decent numbers, and to hear that diesel clatter and turbo whine
coming out of that Dak would be something special. :-)
