    8.1's are good for one thing....


    getting money at a scrap yard


    if you want speed 6.0. If you want to be able to tow, go diesel
    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum

    buy a murauder but keep it 4door imo and dont lift it... and yeah 8.1's are good for nothing. if you wana tow (which would be stupid you have a truck) get a duramax, if you want to go fast, get a duramax

    that is the funnies thing i have heard all day!!! no really it is. ill put my dmax up to a cummins ANY day of the week. I bet i go faster, pull harder, get better mpg's, and last longer. Not to mention your talking about putting this in a car, NX mustang runs 8's on a stock dmax long block, not to mention its way lighter and you can actually tune it, where a cummins you cant really tune one. Want me to go on? oh ok the last "fast car" i saw with a cummins swap was a c5 vette it has a good size turbo it runs high 12's i rest my case

    i know i have odd tastes. and i dont want a marauder. but if i build the next town car (and i know they're the same cars with different motors) i already decided against the 2 door. and as far as motor, its either a 6.0, 8.1, or a 5.4 dohc motor. i like diesels but i'm not really interested in the extra maintenance costs. and i doubt it would do any towing if i lifted it that much. maybe if i didn't lift it more than a foot but if i kept it the same height i still doubt i would tow more than its own weight if i towed with it at all. it will probably start with a truck frame like a navigator or maybe a hd truck. maybe i should start with a 3500 and shorten the frame and put some big rig wheels on it.... lol.
