Yeah, it's common in turbo'd 6.2s, but it's also common in non-turbo 6.2s. I could see the added cylinder pressure of the turbo doing more damage to a crank with a failed balancer (although, at the end of the day, the balancer was the problem, fix it and you'd be fine), but the locations of the...

Crank snapping is mostly due to a failed harmonic balancer. Block cracking is mostly due to the alloys used. These are issues with or without a turbo. That's what I thought, just wanted to be sure, since somebody mentioned a deuce.

Just to be clear, are we talking about a CUCV or a Deuce?

My buddy and I poked around under my truck to see what we could do, as we highly considered this for one of his trucks. I don't want it because of the off-road use I put my truck through, but for his it'd be OK I think since he basically only drives on road. 2 small turbos would be preferable...

Running lean won't cause the same issues on a diesel as it would on a gas motor (diesels don't really mind running lean that much) but I still wouldn't recommend it, as if you're running lean, you do risk the high exhaust temps causing damage, but you also aren't making as much power as you...

You'll need to up the fuel flow into the engine (I don't think the stock injection pump is good for a whole lot of fuel delivery) to maintain the proper air/fuel ratio, that's it. Blowoff valve would not be necessary, as there is no throttle plate that's going to slam shut. Boost would be...

Remote mount turbo would theoretically be easier than a traditional mount, because you wouldn't have to screw around with manifolds and whatnot, just flange the exhaust pipe wherever you want, bolt in the turbo, run another pipe up to the intake, done. Disadvantages, of course, would be lag...
