How do you all get 6.2s to 300K miles

Change your oil religiously and watch the cooling system. These 6.2 Detroits aren't powerhouses, but they'll last forever if you don't overheat them. Keeping the EGTs low with that turbo kit is going to be your main priority for longevity.
I change it frequently, and yes sir my aluminum radiator does a decent job at keeping it cool
 
What are we looking at? I couldn't really tell other than something on the back side of the radiator.

Is that really a McDonald's restaurant in NY? never seen one in high class like this

Essentially in the video, unless im tripping, I sincerely think that I have a pinhole sized leak from one of the indents that you can see in the vid.

Also lmao yup, theres quite a bit of them here, thats just one example.
 
you might want to get a pressure tester and have a look. they arent too expensive, only pressure it up to 15 PSI max while it's full of water. then start looking for the leak if you have a pin hole, it will show it's face under pressure most of the time.

If it is a pinhole leak.....shoot, then what.

It held up so well...
