CUMMINS R2.8 DIESEL SWAP

Planning a Cummins R2.8 swap? Angels Touch builds turbo diesel conversions for International Scouts and other classic 4x4s from start to finish in our Sagamore Beach shop on Cape Cod. Engine, driveline, wiring, fabrication, paint and interior all happen under one roof.

​

Our 1969 International Scout 800A shows what's possible: a 2.8L Cummins R2.8 turbo diesel crate engine backed by a five-speed manual and an NP241OR transfer case, set into a shortened and heavily modified Jeep JK frame with relocated body mounts.

​

What a Cummins swap at Angels Touch covers: engine mounts, crossmember and driveline fitment; transmission and transfer case adaptation; cooling, intercooler, intake and exhaust fabrication; fuel system and engine wiring harness integration; digital gauges and modern electronics; plus bodywork, paint and custom interiors in-house.

​

Why the R2.8? It is a compact 2.8-liter four-cylinder turbo diesel designed for repower projects, with strong low-end torque and better fuel economy than a big gas V8, which makes it a natural fit for vintage trucks and SUVs.
