hey everybody! of course im new here so ill say hi im joe and get on with the question in case somebody knows about it and can help.
i bought a new engine from gl its a 6.2l from a humvee i think. i bought it because i figured it would be a later model engine and ive read that the later model 6.2s had better flowing heads than the earlier ones and would be a great replacement in my m1009
heres the thing. it looks very similar to the engine in my truck but there are obvious differences such as
no vacuum pump on the top rear of the engine there is an electronic thing instead
also no where to put vacuum lines to the injection pump just more electrics
dipstic tube is different but probably not a big deal because the oil pan doesnt look like it will go in and clear the front axle
i guess its no big deal if the vacuum pump can be put in there but was just wondering if anybody had any experience with these engines
side note -- i want to get an nv4500 in this thing too, will i even need the vacuum pump with the manual trans?
