And so it begins

So I am officially committed to this engine swap project. I bought a cummins 4BT from a friend's friend in January, 2010. It came with an NV4500 adapter plate and a HY35 turbo. The engine was at one point running but I was not able to see it run as it did not have the flywheel, starter or the necessary attachments (vacuum pump, power steering pump, etc). I am pretty stoked but my wife thinks I am crazy. I had to tow this engine up to Phoenix where my brother lives as he has all the necessary tools to make this swap happen.
