I changed out the Model B tranny for a '39 Ford top shift. It bolts right in. I made a 1" thick aluminum plate adaptor to join the 220 diesel Merc.

The fuel shut off is the former choke. It even sounds like a Model A or B. The only difference on the exterior is the Mack "Diesel" script that was used on the old B Models. It hangs on the headlamp cross bar via a small SS bracket. This engine was designed to push a 3000 lb car in comfort. It is quite lively in my 2300 lb truck. I have never thought about installing a turbo. The induction and injection systems would require substantial alteration. Not even sure if there is a kit.
