    That is down right scary!!!!!!! I have heard stories of mechanics waving a broom handle around before daring to get close to an area suspected of a leak....to see the invisible leak cut the broom handle in half.

    Chevy 3500 dually 5.7 to 6.5/6.2 diesel Swap

    If you have an auto transmission, a transmission controller will cost you about $800 (Leroy Diesel sells them) There is also the option of finding the perfect parts truck that might have a transmission computer that would work for you. I think it would have to be a 1993 and maybe a 1992...

    Chevy 3500 dually 5.7 to 6.5/6.2 diesel Swap

    And if you have a manual transmission you can put a red X through one of the biggest expenses and challenges of the swap (and give your left foot and right hand a big pat on the back)

    http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/threads/tahoe-6-2-swap.46454/ Here is a link to my build A lot of the hurdles I had to jump in the wiring also came from my changing transmissions, and going 4x4 to 2x4 (affected getting the speedometer and ABS to work) so the longer I think about it the easier...

    Chevy 3500 dually 5.7 to 6.5/6.2 diesel Swap

    I think modifying the gas harness would be doable if you were going with a mechanical IP. The engine sensors for oil press, coolant temp, etc; are pretty simple as far as wiring goes and a mechanical IP only requires two wires............. so most of the work would be cutting out the wires you...

    Chevy 3500 dually 5.7 to 6.5/6.2 diesel Swap

    I got a parts truck and swapped harnesses (still had to modify the harness that I swapped in because it was from a electronic injected engine and I am putting in a mechanical) but that was not too hard....mostly just cutting out extra wires. It also needs to be said that I have not fired it up...

    Thank you!

    Tahoe 6.2 swap

    Got a couple hours on it again today.............. I have looked around but have not found a diagram of which fuel injection lines go where. Anybody know? I have taken them off and put them on multiple times on my truck, but they were always clamped together and I did not bend them out of shape...

    I believe (from my experience swapping harnesses for my tahoe project) that the harness could be unplugged. I was not really paying much attention to which wires went to the headlights, but I unplugged the entire dash and engine harness so I obviously unplugged it somewhere. (this was on a 96)

    Is my 6.5 dead?

    Should be fine...... As Will cautioned wear safety glasses.

    yea.... I was kinda chuckling at the direction this thread was going..... At any rate if you do find an answer, please post the results cause this appears to be an area not too many folks know how it works

    Data Link Port

    X2 I swapped out the entire harness between a truck and a tahoe (had the whole dash out) And I never located the key fob receiver...... there were a couple components that I wondered about, but could not find a picture of one to compare to or anything. I need to do some learning here or else...

    Tahoe 6.2 swap

    When connecting the wires to the RPM sensor (I am using the one that runs off the oil pump drive gear in the engine valley) how do I determine polarity of the two wires? Or does it not matter?

    Welcome, Teds Trucks!

    Glad to see another source for parts!

    Tahoe 6.2 swap

    When I get to priming the oil system with a drill through the RPM sensor drive.... Which way is the drive shaft supposed to spin?

    Tahoe 6.2 swap

    Finally got some more time to work on this last night. Got the oil cooler lines from a local hose shop. Installed the fuel tank and battery trays, bought two batteries. I still have to weld some new fittings on the oil cooler and figure out where I want the fuel filter to go.
