Yanking out the 6.5 and installing the vm soon. This is just the start of the thread, so I have place to post pics, and interested folks can follow the progress.
So far, we got a flywheel made, and intake remade. Pics will be posted as i have time.
I absolutely HATE key chime modules. The most annoying sound there is... especially when you are trying to work on the truck, and need to have the door open, and the key on.
When I bought my truck, it was already MIA, and I was happy to let it be that way. But... now I have no chime to let me...
Innovation :rof:

It isn't quite finished. Notice a few missing hoses, wire loom, and paint. The big stuff is done.
I know some wonder from time to time if a 6.5 smokes when it is running strait wmo. I took this video of my truck warmed up, at an idle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5roBRguhENw
This was a horrible batch of oil we had gotten. Dirty and nasty. This is about as bad as it gets.
Just got this footage with my phone, so it lacks real quality, but I was impressed with these trucks.
