Hello again. I have a question about valve seals on the 6.5. I have pulled apart 2 different motors now one being a 97 turbo and a 99 military non turbo. The 97 heads had valve seals only on the intake side not on the exhaust. The 99 non turbo had none at all? Anybody local doesn't have a clue...

I had already pulled the th400 and went though it when I added the doubler transfercase and it had the usual problems like accumulator piston busted. I replaced what was needed. But kept the stock converter since it’s a trail-woods-rock rig. I don’t plan on making it a “rock bouncer” just want...

Here is the piston stamping.

They have one HX35w turbo left for sale. $599 OBO PLUS FREE SHIPPING?? I looked and I gave $525 plus shipping. Still not a bad deal? On WarWagon’s comment, I couldn’t win a Free cup coffee the way my luck is sometimes! “I just got lucky on the parts”. Like putting a hole in a radiator 15 miles...

I just checked on the exhuast manifolds! He has raised the price on them. He still has some available. $351 plus shipping. The Holset has a 14cm housing so I was going to leave it alone and run it as is. The exhuast port for the Cummins is tiny compared to the Banks so I figured port matching...

Thanks for the advice on where to get the Diamond Precups. I going to call as soon as get a chance. I was going to go back with a GM8 and a Wicked Wheel installed into it on the 6.2 "But that's history". So I kept reading and reading how The turbo side exhaust and GM's turbo's are garbage and...

Where can I buy Diamond precups?

Well I finally got a chance this evening to tear down the crate motor to see what was lurking inside?!?! And thank goodness was I relieved!!! The pictures speak for themselves.. I wont lie for awhile I thought "D4mn I Hope I didn't throw away $1000" I'm still not sure on the where-how-why about...

The engine on the other stand is 97 truck 6.5. Its the one I stole the heads and intake off of for the 6.2. The current CUCV 6.2 got a hole in the radiator "With out me knowing" back on a New Years day outing and got hot! We were 15 miles from the nearest asphalt. So it had to be drove out. It...

Ok so this a motor that was already in a HMMWV and pulled? The exhuast manifolds are clean like new on the inside. I know there’s no way to tell until I pull it apart. Would it be wise to “NOT” run the IP on it or leave it alone? The only reason I am asking is it is sitting on a engine stand...

I personally removed it from the military crate. And yes one side and the top of the crate were already removed. Any opening that the motor had hoses-exhaust-intake were covered and caped from the factory. It had been sitting in an old garage that his late grandfather owned and no one used but...

Thank you for fast reply! The injectors really do not have any color on them? They are Delphi and there looks to be a sealant on the middle of the injector and I’m guessing it was white from the factory and now is turning yellow?? The injector pump reads M4 DB2 831-5149 11d47319 12550433 Once...

Hello again. I just recently purchased a HMMWV 6.5LT H.O. motor that was still in the crate. I do not know a lot about this motor except the person that I purchased it from said he thought it was new crate motor and not a reman? That was what he was told when he purchased it. He has had it 2yrs...

Hello again. I have the opportunity to purchase a brand new Banks Turbo Manifold still in the box for my 86 CUCV 6.2 "I couldn't believe I found one!" The question I have is it worth getting or not? I still have the 24V system with dual batteries in the truck and do not intend to change it. If...

I was just under the appresion that ether the 6.5 head or the 6.2 block “I think” has a small peanut shaped water passage on the ends of the block or heads mating surface the will interfere with the wrong gasket if used??

I am going to install 6.5 heads-intake-exhaust manifolds on a 86 6.2. Which head gaskets should I use? I understand there is a water passage difference between the two. but I am unclear on which gasket I should use. I have read that there can be a external coolant leak if the right one is not used.

I have another question that I hope someone can help me with. Where would be the best place to purchase a full set of diamond precups? I have found out that 6 of the 8 are cracked and 2 are cracked in three places. I have seen them EBAY but I have learned the hard way that EBAY sellers like to...

I finally made a decision on what I'm going to do with the blazer. I am going to take the 6.2 heads-intake off and use the heads-intake (Non EGR) off of the 96 6.5 and use a GM8 turbo and maybe a Wicked Wheel. I am going to also ARP stud the heads. I have also picked up a Brand New set of Bosch...

I would rather lure the rabbit out with a carrot and then blast his a$$. But if it would make everything fit and work better? Then I wouldn’t mind reaching down the hole.

Yes its got a 1inch body lift. I had to put it on to get the body to clear the doubler transfer case. Its really more like 1 1/2 almost 2 with the new rubber mounts and 1 inch aluminum slugs. You really don't know how worn out and smashed your 30+ yr old mounts are until you pull them out to put...
