I don't think it will. The 903 was used in the ACCO 3070 but cab raised, bigger radiator and various other mods.

903 will fit, but you'll need to find a rusty 3070 and take all the running gear out of it.
The cab isn't raised on a 3070 it is the same as a 1950D.
Though you'll need all the running gear, radiator air filter exhaust etc.
You can buy a rusty 3070 from anywhere between $500 and$3,000 without trying to hard, just look on Gumtree and maybe fleabay.
I'd be wanting to fire up the motor before I bought the truck though, it isn't uncommon for an old 903 to have a sump full of water.

Gday all thanks for the replies my truck is a 1986 model 1950d acco with a vt190 in it. It's grabbed the bottom end of the engine. Wasn't nice what came out of the sump drain plug.

Hi you can make anything fit with time and money, but it would be better spent fitting a "C" series Cummins and you can have near the same power with less weight.

If you put the 903 in you will need to put the 9 series (at least) gearbox and all the other running gear, the 1950D is a lot lighter truck. Be a good way of getting a 3070 going again, though if it is working truck the C series Cummins will be far more practical and fuel efficient.

If you are all for a 903 buy a 3070 and put your cabin on it, a lot less work!

Is there much involved in fitting a c series Cummins engine

The c series are 6 cylinder engines so they are longer but straight forward fit up.
