Thanks for the reply Turbonator, I'm alittle surprised I thought they would bolt right up. I thought maybe the exhaust ports might be a tad different. I wasn't going to run a turbo anyway, thanks again Turbonator.

Will the 6.2 military exhaust manifolds bolt up ok on my 95 2wd 6.5 n.a. without any clearance problens? And are the exhaust ports the same size on both motors? Thanks.
Mark
Thanks for the show & tell Pav appreciate it. I'll have to take another look under the hood and see what I can come up with using your guide lines.

Yeah Jorge it is a factory NA.with 160K on it. When I first bought it I was going to do the turbo upgrade but as of late I've thought against it for right now. I'm putting a F intake on it to get rid of the old round air cleaner and I'm going to get a S&B cold air intake for it so at least I'm...
I have a 95 with a 6.5 NA what I would like to know is would it be worth it to consider a larger exhaust system and if so which one 3 or 4 inch? Thanks.
Mark
What I'm basicly trying to do WW is get rid of the air cleaner so I can raise the FFM up so its easier to hook up the fuel lines and I can't do that with the aircleaner sitting there. And make it breath a little easier and move the EGR valve hose and dump it into the oil fill tube.

I bought a intake off a 1 ton and checked it with my intake gaskets and it looks like the gaskets are plenty big enough so I won't have to do any cutting, thanks Scott.
Mark
Thank's for the pics and the reply guys.What I'm trying to do is wake my 6.5 na up a little. It has the old style air cleaner on it like a gas motor. I thought if I got a F manifold and a Peninsular upper I could make it breath a little better. And then I could raise my fuel filter up a bit to...
Thanks for the reply DC. Yeah that is pretty cool you can turn it. Reason I was wondering is there's an S&B intake sytem in the forsale section and it looks like it might have a upper intake hard to tell from the pic.
Mark
How many aftermarket companies are making an upper intake manifold for the 6.5? Only one I know of is Peninsular. Has anyone ran their upper and if so what do you think of it? Thanks.
Mark
I have a 95 when I first brought it home the next morning it wouldn't start. I plugged it in for a couple of hours (at the time it was 50 degree's outside) but it still wouldn't start.
Checked the glows and it had 5 bad glows, changed them and it started right up.
Mark
Yeah it didn't make any sense to me either but I wanted to find out why they only offered it with the underhood harness being it is hotter there where they mount it versus behind the front bumper.
Mark
I inquired about one of those scratch and dent FSD coolers that is sold by SSchevelleman on Ebay. I asked him why they mount it on the intake instead of mounting it behind the front bumper. He said that the longer harness when installed behind the bumper will not work it will loose some of the...
I bought one of those over there comp tester's and it's a piece of junk, tested a known weak comp motor and the gauge said it had way more than factory, you get what you pay for.
