On a 6.2 its on the rear of the engine behind the intake manifold where the distributor is on a chevy gas engine. In the pic its the one on the left with the flattened can looking thing.

Does the 6.2 have a vacuum pump on it? You will need one for the modulator on the T400 to work. You will also have to have the vacuum regulator that goes on the throttle linkage on the injector pump which varies the vacuum to the T400 based on throttle position. You will need a 6...

I would clamp the turbo directly to the exhaust and support the turbo off some kind of support hanger from the frame that has some give or swing allowed so it can move with the engine and exhaust. The rest of the exhaust im sure has some give in its mounting right? Thats my 2 cents worth

Thanks dude! Also in that last pic you can see that I ditched the vacuum pump and replaced it with a oil pump drive unit from a 92 6.5. With the Turbo400 gone there is no need for vacuum.

Installed the pilot bushing, flywheel and clutch- ( yes I used the alignment tool) . Used ARP pressure plate bolts with red locktite on them as well as the flywheel bolts. I can tell this is so thrilling you all are speechless :D

I have a 6.2 truck that runs good around the flat here, - but when my project list gets around to building a 6.5 for towing its going to get a new forged crankshaft from peninsular diesel ( about $900 + shipping). I cant stand the possibility of a weak crankshaft breaking a month after...

Checked the bellhousing alignment today, it is out 4 1/2 thousanths which is half of the 9 thou i registered on the dial indicator. You split the difference in half between the high and low opposite readings as the dial indicator is not exactly centered . Normally accepted...
