    5.7 swap to 6.5 diesel

    A 700r4 puked its guts with a 305 smallblock on it. Maybe look for a manual trans setup for it?

    1994 GMC sierra TBI mild build.

    Clarification. My area doesnt deal with emissions. I have emissions on my truck, but my area doesn't require them.

    Good idea. Would it be good to use dual electric fans in tandem with that? they push through the radiator while the clutch fan helps?

    1994 GMC sierra TBI mild build.

    I will be sure to do some cooling improvements. Aluminum radiator for sure, I think the clutch fan or even a flex fan should be fine. I will probably end up buying a crate one, and being sure the engine is good from the get-go.

    1994 GMC sierra TBI mild build.

    Main use is a daily driver, 50 miles a day. no hard use, other than the massive hill I live up. I like going off-road, but mainly light trails and some mud and lots of snow. if I get another 9mpg roll on this small-block my wallet is going to have a heart attack. again, 50+ miles a day. Even...

    Is there anything in particular to look out for when I go to pick one up? short of rods hanging out of the pan lol.

    1994 GMC sierra TBI mild build.

    I'm trying to stick to the OBS style trucks, and keeping them pretty original. I've got a 305 c1500 long bed, and that 94 K1500 z71. I've seen lots of people swap in a Cummins, but (please don't shoot me for saying this) I like the underdog appeal of the 6.5. I know there are going to be...

    1994 GMC sierra TBI mild build.

    I've got two gassers. Would selling one for a diesel be good? I have my heart set on diesel, my degree is in diesel. Slapping a turbo on TBI is a whole BUCKET of worms, and I really dont like the sound of those crawling around with my daily driver. And in order to keep my trans (4l60e) I need...

    5.7 swap to 6.5 diesel

    Unless the 4L60e is built, don't put that diesel on it. The 4l60e had problems holding onto a TBI 350, so the diesel is out of question for sure. 4L80 or TH400, I'd personally go for a manual trans.

    1994 GMC sierra TBI mild build.

    Mainly gas mileage is my reasoning. I get 11-16 mpg with that 350. Not looking for burnouts, just looking for offroad torque, and good mileage.

    1994 GMC sierra TBI mild build.

    New to the site! I've got a mild build 350, its in a 1994 GMC sierra. Some stainless headers and she runs pretty good. Burnouts on command are pretty dang nice. If there is any interest in the modifications I'd be happy to elaborate. Looking to buy a 6.5 diesel version of this truck, or even...
