    Oil leak fixed. But now bigger problems..... Batteries not charging. No gen 1 or 2 lights on dash. Both batteries are at 7 volts. I'm stopped at the Hess station at exit 85, south on 95. Any info on what to check before truck shots down?

    That stuff lasted 5 sec. I removed the oil hoses and pluged the block.

    No luck with finding a hose. Tried chevy dealer an parts stores. No one has any. Of the two hoses it the one that mounts to the far left on the engine block.

    Just got done doing a test drive. Unbelievable power with this new GEP 6.5l engine. After rechecking, looks like only a loose rad hose clamp that needs tighten. I"ll be checking out the truck in the morning before we get back on the road.

    Forget....we couldn't use the 6.2 oil pan due to the rear of the pan not fitting tight on the block. The 6.5 pan worked great. I have 2 inchs of space betweet the pan and axle. Had to get two adapter fitting to mount the oil lines in the block next to the oil filter. Hopefully in a few hours...
