    Starter problem on my 6.2.

    I used a manual switch, and give a 10 one thousand count. I have a 12 v starter on it now, I'll try the starter bolts and see if the Doghead mod is needed as well. Thank You

    Starter problem on my 6.2.

    It was a 454. I do know that I seen something similar to what's being replacing with the Doghead Mod under the dash of my truck. I'll look to make 100% sure. Also what's wierd is this starter had no shims and has started this motor for years ?? Have no clue why this happened.

    Starter problem on my 6.2.

    OK, Will do. Now is that applicable on 12 volt systems ? It's a regular production truck that I put the 6.2 into ? If so I have already printed it out and will pick it up tonight ! Thank you for help me out !!

    What has your 6.2 pulled ? MPG's ??

    Very cool ! Keep'um coming !! Yes I have a 4L80 and it had a 14 FF in the rear but I found a super deal on a dually 1 ton so I converted mine from a srw to drw. I was/am hoping for a lot better MPG out of this motor than the 454 it replaced !

But I was wondering if you guys and gals could post pictures of what you have pulled or moved with your CUCV ? Also was wondering what MPG I should...
