    6.2 and 6.5 heads

    Piston damage from glow plug I'm waiting for bolts and exhaust gaskets and while I was cleaning gunk out of the cylinders I found this.

    Hello all- I have a 91 K3500 dually with a 6.2. It works great for my job as a mason and tile setter. I'm new to the 6.2 world but have driven other diesels before. Most notably a Scout with a turbo diesel. I live and work in Seattle WA, but split my time between there and Santa Cruz CA. Kevin
