    Arrow 6.5L Diesel powered Ford trucks

    These guys have been converting Ford pickups to either 6.2L or 6.5L diesel power for many-many years. In fact, that's what they do as a business. If you live in Australia, you're in luck. See the following link to learn more.

    Interesting. Looks like they did a component inversion on the engine to clear the right hand steering column. Wonder if the 6.2/6.5s that were shipped over there new had the same?

    The owner of the business is a longtime TDP member. I've spoken to him a number of times on the phone through the years, and even had an email exchange with him recently.

    I was told quite a while ago that they designed a new set of exhaust manifolds that were cast locally. They produce other specialty parts as well.
