In the last couple of weeks the 6.5 has roots in with it's 2 cycle brethren. Cold starting this thing lately has me reminiscing of the old KW at the farm. The 6.5 is acting like the old 8-71 when the governor is "searching" for the right idle speed, and at this point in my life I don't need...

I'm now at cross roads. After my good fortune on my holidays, friend of mine who happens to be a diesel mechanic suggested I should just scrap the 6.5 build and get a 8.2L Diesel. He was telling me they come from the factory with 320hp. Best part it's all mechanical. I googled it and came up...

Does any body have or know where I can get a schematic for the wiring under the dash of my ' 95 Tahoe? Specifically the courtesy lights, mine don't work at all, tried to tie into a separate power source and the stupid anti theft bullshit locked everything up. If there is one on line somewhere...

Is there a way to calibrate the RPM gauge, I know the feed comes from the alternater. The bearings went in my old one and just got a reman replacement, and new belt. Now at 65 mph the rpm' s are reading at about 23-2400, before I changed it would read it at 19-2000. If knew that the pulley's...

Or even just moving the Turbo? I was even thinking of going with a set up like the TT kit's, (could even stick with a single turbo), they have for the corvette's where the turbos are at the other end of the exhaust where the mufflers are supposed to be, taking more heat from the engine bay...

I'm in bit of a rush today but if I don't do this now I'll forget. My question's can I make a IP from a 6.2L work for my 6.5L? I want to change it over from Electronic to Mech. I just shelled out a few hundred buck's for a D-tech pmd (came with one yr. warranty even though I installed...

I have a gm4 turbo on the engine right now, I noticed today that there is oil leaking from the Exhaust manifold, and I removed the intake hose and it is coated in a film of oil. In your experience is it just the seals or should I be looking for a new turbo before the engine swallows pieces of...
