    ARGGGG, more 6.5 blues

    OK, getting pissed off now. I just found that my 599 1993 6.5 NA out of a van with 52,000 miles that ran awsome has a cracked main web on one of the main bosses, it goes from the outer hole with the smaller bolt towards the cylinder wall, looks like an inch or so. Then I pulled down my other...

    CDR valve with turbo

    Im in the process of doing my 6.2 with a ATS turbo swap into my 1990 K5 blazer. The question I had was do I run a CDR valve between the turbo or just a pipe between the oil filler neck and the intake pre turbo. The factory setup for the ATS is directily to the turbo with no cdr valve.

    REGEAR, is it worth it

    My wifes 1997 GMC k2500 HD with the 6.5 gets lousy mileage, even with the 285/75/16 tires on it. Rpm's are at 1850 at 55 mph and over 2000 at 62. Truck seems to get great milage at 50 mph, but a 60 and above it falls of really bad, like 3-4 mpg. The truck has 4.11 gears now, can those be swapped...

    Ahh, Choices

    So, is what I got is a '99 humvee 6.5 that I just removed the heads on it because of the oddball intake angles. I am getting a very low miles 1992 gmc fed ex van 6.2, it has 30,000 on rebuild. Will the heads work on the 6.5 or do I have to change out injector lines, will 6.5 turbo injectors fit...
