A question to all the diesel guru's in the crowd!

Yup pre 97 run of the mill 6.5, not no dual t stat, and ac compressor on pass side, S engine RPO code L56 should be on the sticker in the glove box, need to scrape off the Cat badge go by Hummer dealer or online somewhere and get a more appropriate 6.5 badge

TD, what do you make of their 400HP claims?

In a marine engine with unlimited cooling that is going to be set at a peak load rpm setting, with proper fuel delivery, and addition of a SC and intercooling, I'm thinking not out of realm of possibility for 400 flywheel Hp, remember Heath land speed racer twin turbo is estimating 500 flywheel Hp.

He Deere, wat's that friesian horse doing in your sig, you own it?

Nice looking truck by the way
 
Yep - regular old 1500 Yukon....nothing CAT about it....

Nice looking unit though!
 
Realized I forgot to say nice truck!! Looks like fun 'little' ride!! I bet it gets out of its own way in a hurry, and fun to drive!
 
It is a nice ride, I wouldnt mind having one but I would really have no use for it. I seen one that was black at a stop light, it looked like it just rolled off the lot. Looked all stock but in pefect condition.

Maybe some day I'll get one for a run around rig.
 
Need to get after that heater hose connection B4 you lose the engine to lost coolant - simultaneously get after that PMD: should be a remote-mounted FSD B4 the end of today - also see something strange down between the ac comp and the waterpump - then, go over all the connectors and grounds, make sure all is functional - need to perform some severe ablutions on the general engine\engine bay, while yer at it.............

Yeah they are fun and get out of their own way pretty good. Got a long list of mods for mine when I get back from Italy in a few years. Top of the list is full rebuild of engine and tranny with a tranfer case swap and solid front axle.
Right now it is the best road trip vehicle I have ever owned. Just hit the highway and set the cruise and it stays right there for 500 miles or so and is an absolute pleasure to drive.:thumbsup:

Yes, I know I have ALOT to do under that hood as screwed up as everything looks. First and foremost, I have to change the flywheel.
