99F350 5.4 to 95 12 valve
Does anybody here have a connection with anybody that sells conversion kits?
I've been trying to deal with Diesel Conversion Specialists without satisfaction.
Phone replies - ??
Email- ??
- To be fair, I did get an email conversation started with DCS sales, but for some reason the VIN # tells them our project truck was originally a 7.3 with a ZF6, but it's a 5.4 auto.
I've confirmed our vin at the Ford dealer.
DCS says we're wrong. So, I need options as they seem to have lost interest.
At this point I feel we may be at a deadlock with them... ????
Can anyone help me? I promise I'll never speak ill of Fords again.

Thanks, that's where I ended up going for my parts.
I have some stuff headed in. They were great to deal with.

Got most of my conversion parts from Destroked and Auto World when I did my conversion 7 years ago, I like Destroked's mounts but did modify the engine plates to lower the engine some. Didn't like the fan sticking above the radiator, with the engine lowered the fan now fits in the stock shroud.

Wild Horse MFG builds some adapter plates, they are cheaper the Destroked or DCS. Carrick Customs make some mounts and such also, but mostly OBS stuff.
