I'm doing a cummins swap too, still collecting parts but I'm almost there. Let me know how the Avalanche crossmember works out for ya, I want to make sure it clears crossover steering and everything. Otherwise I end up coughing up a hundred bucks more from another company but I'd rather not spend more than I need to.

The avalanche crossmember looks good. I'm gonna finish smoothing the firewall this weekend and hopefully get the motor set in place too


What year is your truck? I picked up a duramax intercooler but it's too big to fit between my headlights. If you have an 81-88 core support it might work for you

My truck is an 82 but I have the '89-'91 core support. I'm not sure at this point but I may go with a liquid-to-air cooler instead of an air intercooler. The cummins came out of a UPS truck and with their fan clutch used with my GM fan, that combo doesn't allow much room due to the pitch on my fan blades. My core support will need some modding to make room for the radiator moved forward. So there's already no more room between the a/c condensor and the grille, but the liquid to air cooler is thinner and smaller so it should be perfect.

I gotta go check out your swap when you're done.
