    Back from the brink...help me locate and build my next 6.5!

    Ok folks, let me tell you what's going on, and bring you up to the minute...in case you hadn't been following my thread in 6.5 performance. (And I'm about to post in Introductions, too, if you care at all for my back-story). Original L65 in my 99 C3500 dually had been a pain in my rear for...
