hey guys, im new to the site, but i have a question that i hear you can answer. what i have is a 354.6T Perkins from a MF 760 its the black block. I am lookin to find a truck transmission to fit the perkins...what will work?

i know that when you guys do cummins swaps in your olivers, u say the perkins trans bolts up to the cummins...what did that cummins come out of? i ask because there are so many different bellhousings for cummins i wondered if a cummins out of a pickup truck would bolt up to the 3 speed perkins trans??? if so, is there a cummins plate that will somehow majically bolt up to the perkins block?

heres what im doin...took 94 f-350 converted to crew cab 94 f-550 and i threw out the powerjoke...lookin to stick in the Perkins SOON! just need a transmission and bellhousing that will work...was told dodge put perkins in back in the day (50's-late 60's) in their PD500/600 but i cant find one of those. Also told International put a few in their trucks back in the 70's but cant find one of those either. Also know that a NP540 will bolt right up, but has to have right input shaft and bellhousing...cant find one of those either! i think im runnin out of luck over here! lol.

can you guys please help me?
thanks-a-million
patrick

If I remember correctly there are only 3 commercial duty engine bolt patterns. And there are adapters to match all to one and another. Most likely a large truck shop could get you one or a good weld shop can easily make one. Perkins are a rather rare engine 'round here, personally if I were to take on this kinda project I'd stick in a Cat... at least then you'd have some real bite.

Back when MF was MF the service rep by the name Adrian Powell had a file that gave all that info. He had it for all 3 brands.I don,t know where it went after MF was sold & moved out of DesMoines,Ia.Sorry I can,t help ,just thought you would like to know that it had been done before.

Adrian still works for Agco. He's the director of product reliability. He's very helpful, a lot better than anyone directly at MF. I contacted him through the AGCO web site. Hope this helps. Dave

I know a guy who put an Isuzu in a chevy pickup to replace the 6.2, he made his own adapter plate. Not to pretty but it worked ok....Jim
