theres your problem! 14v the G60s are self regulated at 10.5v tops per plug. when 1 plug goes out it increases the voltage to the other plugs. check the resistance on all 8 plugs the other problem could be the glow plug resister. If that has problems then your whole system has problems. pic...

Hello! Great start! Diy4x.com has a lot of stuff too for your cucv needs. Cheaper in some aspects but same if not better quality then ORD. I have both ORD and Diy4x parts. Under my fender flares you would see a lot of cutting on the front fenders to clear 40” tires. Right now I roll 37” which...

You are in luck! I have a custom 3” dual exhaust system with flow master mufflers I will be selling because I am doing a turbo with 4” pipes. $250+ shipping. Can cut it up which will be cheaper freight or ship as a whole(More expensive) Pm me if interested Oh yea comes with tips and think it...

That is good to know! Many years ago I installed phantom 2 gauges on my Diy4x dash with the tach and could never get a good signal. I will try this for sure as it seems cheaper:) I might have a few dual alternator brackets to do the serpentine set up. I have boxes and boxes of 6.2 parts on my...

ok cool! What is that wire coming from the bottom of the timing plate cover on the 6.5? where is the tach signal coming from on the 6.5?

I would go with an optimizer 6.5 TD. Or P400. Keep it below 15 psi boost and smile and waive. used 6.5 or 6.2 hybrid TD no higher then 10psi boost if on a budget.

I was thinking... With my 1995 6.5 TD donor with 208,000 miles that still runs top... Should I drop that 6.5 in my M1009 instead of doing a 6.2/6.5 hybrid? Would I need to put a 6.2 oil pan on the 6.5? Will the exhaust manifolds clear the frame with Off Road Design Motor mounts? What would...

I already snagged it from him:)

Today I started unbolting the 2nd 6.5 TD Donor. The motor and parts are much cleaner then the 1st donor. I should have it out by tomorrow. All I have left is 3 more transmission bolts, motor mounts and unbolt the down pipe and she is out! In my search of knowledge I have come to the conclusion...

Found another 6.5 TD at the junkyard. Saved it from the crusher. The motor has 208k runs amazing and 4l80e trans. Was salvaged because of rear end went out. The trucks body was pristine 3 days ago. The junkyard guys Fucxxx up the body with their forklift. Sad... If anyone needs interior parts...

I got the ORD mounts already installed and have the ORD cross over on my upgrade pile. That’s helpful info! Thanks!

I have a friend that has a banks turbo set up without the turbo for $400. Everything I would need except the turbo. I am thinking if I bought it from him could I put the 6.5 turbo on the Banks Exhaust Manifold? Would that be a better set up?

No Diamond mark... Not lucky... Darn

My Warn 24 v winch was $2800. If you have those kind of funds I would say get it. If not a 12 v could work with your 24 v system. Or you could convert to 12 volt all around. I would say hook it up to a battery and run it down the back and ground it to the frame in the back. Get those quick...

Looking great so far! No need to rush! Got any pictures of a mock fit on the stock 6.5 crossover?

Looks like a 506? :-( Did not get lucky but the components are still good and heads! That has to mean something!

Keeping the M1009 Square body spirit alive... Or is it Frankinstine on steroids? To those that don’t know... The 6.2 has and is a damn good motor! My pictures are proof!

You are all prob wondering what my ride looks like.. I guess I better show you! Yes I am bragging... Over the years she has done some amazing things and seen some awesome places! https://www.fourwheeler.com/features/1604-christopher-hufstetlers-reborn-ex-military-1984-k5-blazer/

So I figure since I am crazy enough to take the motor out again to fix the leaking studs I decided to find a turbo/donor and give her some boost! I found a deal on Craigslist for $300! Had to drive only 3 1/2 hours to Idaho... As soon as I got home with the 6.5 I was sooo excited that I...

After putting it back together and driving it for a few months it started to over heat. Some of the Arp studs inside and outside motor started to leak...
