When I was in the box a big program was going on to rebuild 6.5 NA engines so that all 6.2 engines could be removed. We where going through engines like a hot knife through soft butter and the fleet was almost completly purged of 6.2's. The 6.5 TD were being rebuilt too but were reserved for...
I remember having a Soldier that had a 5.7 Diesel in a big Olds 98 that said the motor was shot I tried to pull it and it wieghed a ton more than a gas 350. I almost dropped it with the lift.
