A brave YouTuber Cummins swapped a $500K Rolls-Royce Phantom because his video got more than one single like.

But even by his standards, this seems like a big undertaking for such little provocation.

If there was one think you can count on this Kansas YouTuber for, it’s his determination.

This YouTuber is doing a Cummins swap on his Rolls-Royce Phantom

I know what you’re thinking…. what is a Cummins Swap?

It’s the process by which a vehicle’s original engine is replaced with a Cummins diesel engine.

This is often done to improve the car’s power and reliability, but also can be done to improve fuel efficiency.

For Westen Champlin, it was his Rolls-Royce Phantom that would be getting the Cummins treatment.

And – get this – the prompt to do so was his video getting more than one like.

It got more than one, and that was all he needed to get started.

“The motor that [is] in there is already blown up and having issues,” he explained.

“I said if the video got more than one like, I’d Cummins swap this Rolls-Royce Phantom.

“And I know a bunch of you thought I was joking.

“That video got more than one like and I’m not joking.”

The engine in question is a 5.9-liter Cummins diesel turbo from a 2006 Dodge Ram pick-up.

The challenge that lay before him now was fitting a huge engine into the Phantom.

“Where there’s a will, there’s a way,” Champlin said.

“And if that doesn’t work… I’ve got a hammer.”

The many projects of Westen Champlin

In his time on YouTube, Champlin has taken on a lot of cars, whether it be to restore them or drive them.

He has worked with a wrecked rally car, and a Dodge Hellcat, and even drove a mini truck up to the most northern point of Alaska.

Perhaps his finest moment was taking an abandoned cop car and turning it into the ‘world’s fastest’.

But with a line-up of projects like his, who’s to say which was his best undertaking?
