Im planing my fummins, i have a 1997 f 350 powerstroke with a 5speed, the motor is a 2005 p pump re-con motor with 90k, out of a medium duty ups truck, now I'd like all the help I can get but i have a few questions:
1.pan direction/ pick-updirection? sump is under the front of the motor now
2.alternator? the engine came with a nice serp set up, with a big denso alternator is this something I can use?
3.manifold? the manifold is different than a 94-98 era manifold, it has the trubo farther back and tucked under the manifold I can see the obvious fitment advantage
4.intercooler? whats the best intercooler to fit this style ford and to aid with the intercooler pipe fitment? i plan on fabing my own pipes
5.the re con motor is awesome, i've found many advantages to this motor: cummins re-man turbo,cummins re-man p pump,cummins re-con kdp fix, oil fill cap valve cover

6.any help with puting a cummins in this style ford would be awesome and any info on the re-con and the cummins would also be great
-Thanks josh
