Thanks for posting the links and the CarID pistons are a good price no doubt, but I'm sure they don't come with the rings. I have a set of new Mahle .020" over normal compression pistons that I am not able to use with the block I have at the machine shop due to it needing to go out to .040".
I currently have an engine block at the machine shop that has to go out to .040" on all cylinders. I would be interested in a set of these pistons in oversize of .040" if you could do them.
Looking for a set of new .020" over pistons for a 6.5 diesel. Must be complete with rings, pins, and clips. Have looked online and found some options, but wanting to see if anyone has a set they can give me a good price on. Thanks.
For sale is a 6.5 turbo setup. Comes with left and right exhaust manifold, gm4 turbo, oil drain tube, and factory crossover pipe. Turbo turns freely with no issues. $300 picked up or $330 shipped in the US. If interested send a pm. Thank you.
Looks like deleting EGR is going to be an involved project if I want to do it the way I'd like to or technically the "right way" in deleting all the EGR related components. On the list I would have the right side up pipe, EGR valve, EGR cooler, vacuum pump, intake connection, and even the fuel...

Thanks for the information and I was dreading this being the case with the truck. The VIN states it's an LB7 and yes the injectors are under the valve covers. Bummer about the 30 CFM less air flow and it's probably due to the fact that exhaust gas is rerouting to the intake manifold. Will the...
I just bought a 2004 GMC Sierra with the Duramax. The VIN has a "1" in the 8th digit position so this should mean the engine is an LB7. Interestingly this truck has EGR which I had no idea or expected to see it under the hood on the engine. I bought the truck from New York...so was California...
Ok gotcha. Location of the engine is just a few miles across the PA-MD line. If you're still interested let me know as I could meet you closer to or halfway in between. Thanks.
