600HP 11-Second Sleeper SUV
Older diesel SUVs are definitely a sought after and desirable breed, but what kind of SUV should one buy? Excursions have plenty of room but often come with the troublesome 6.0L powerplant; Jeeps aren’t full size, and older Blazers and Suburbans can only be bought with tired old 6.2L or 6.5L engines. But what about a lightweight, short wheelbase Blazer with a Cummins? Doesn’t sound too bad, does it? As it turns out, lightweight, short wheelbase Blazers can’t be purchased with a diesel (sorry) but that didn’t stop California resident Steve Mc Connachie from building his own. It started when Mc Connachie acquired a ‘95 Dodge that was in bad shape, with more than 286,000 miles on it. Although many parts of the truck were shot, the driveline still looked good, so Mc Connachie decided to turn his Cummins-Blazer dream into reality.
