    Information on the ATS Turbo Kit

    Get the exhaust manifolds, crossover pipe, gaskets and a decent turbo for the 6.5 engine. I think it all should fit Your 6.2. Since You dont have an ecm there should be no error codes to set so You can run a manual wastegate, just keep boost pressure at about 12 but not over 15 PSI.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    The 1990 trucks and suburbans, blazers that were OBD1 throttle body injected, a lot of those had a tachometer. IDK what it was that created signal for the tach ? Maybe one of those dash or tach units could be made to work. Might need the signal generator oil pump drive adapter to get signal for...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Cardboard was under the truck for about five hours. There was not one drip or drop anywhere on any of the three pieces covering the ground under the truck. Next journey is going to be over 300 miles round trip. I have a very high in BTU rated furnace that my friend (like a son) is wanting and...

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    3 PSI boost is not enough pressure. Is this a manual waste gate, vacuum actuated waste gate or does it even have a waste-gate ? If you dont know which waste gate the turbo has then give us a picture of the turbo.

    For Dashboards needing repair

    Thats going to be a mighty nice unit: The one that they show at the end of the video is a mighty fine looking dash.

    For Dashboards needing repair

    I can see where I’ll be headed someday. Have other priorities to take care of first.

    Just arrived, howdy

    Usually smoke on startup after setting over night or some such is a sign that the valve stem seals is not functioning properly. Good plan to do the compression test then if some chljnders are lower than others check to see if its rings or valves. Add oil through the sparking plug holes then...

    Possible ok block,crank, ds4 for sale

    I sent him a message. He replied that the Stanadyne black box was on the IP when He bought the truck, but, it was running off of a remote pump driver behind the front bumper. I’ll remove it. I do have a faulty Stanadyne grey box and now this Stanadyne black box I’d send to @dbrannon79 if he...

    Possible ok block,crank, ds4 for sale

    The used IP arrived yesterday. Appears to be a mighty fine unit. I now have another known good spare to send out if anyone needs a test unit. It does have a black box Stanadyne PMD mounted on the pump that I presume was functioning. I will send him a message and ask if that is a functioning PMD.

    How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

    Can I have that Blazer ? That is a real beauty. I wonder if a the IP is properly functioning or if a bigger turbo could be installed to supply more air to the intake.

    Just arrived, howdy

    Why new heads ? It aint broke dont fix it. I had a 93 K1500 ext cab. 350, 4L60E. At about 150,000 miles installed a new timing chain/sprocket set and had the harmonic balancer cut down and a sleeve made for it to bring it back to OE spec on the OD where the front crank seal rides. At near...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Finished wwith the engine portion. Installed inner fender and air filter. Checked all fluid levels, fired it up and took it for a drive. With the IP leaking on over 100 miles of the last journey, it took only 20 gallons to fill the tank. Reset the trip meter, now we shall see. After I got back...

    I believe those are non turbo manifolds.

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    The adapter bolt was moist so cleaned it off, got out the 1-7/16ths, might have been 1-3/8ths socket with the 3/4 to 1/2 adapter and give it some snug. That seems to have stopped that seep. It was still dry after the several test runs. I’m putting it back together. Turbo and upper intake is all...

    What did you do with your GMT400 today...or yesterday....

    Lower Intake back on. Wires and hoses all hooked. Turbo setting on the exhaust manifold and the nutz is all on but not tight. Had to take a break to come in and watch Gold Rush. 😹😹😹😹 It will be finished tomorrow. 🫣😃😹
