Mine looks to be sealed with something so I will need to find time on the weekend to remove it.

GP said they try to avoid pics of overhauled stickers or make any reference to it as they are not able to verify it and do not want to get involved with it. one of my overhauled stickers was on the doghouse, imagine if they said, overhauled in 2004 and it turned out someone swapped out the doghouse. I agree with them 100% not to try and publicize it as it could bite them in the back side.

No that is not the sticker. Get in the drivers seat. Remove that cover to your right and look at the back of the valve covers.

Nice. Most likely if Maine did it and it has a 6.5 with no rebuild sticker on the motor they put a new motor in it.

See that yellow plug? The nut would be on the left side on a 6.2L

1. 2-mans generally go for less than your 4-mans.
2. You can convert to a 4 man fairly easily.
3. I like the utility of having a pick-up truck when needed by just taking the cargo top and troop seats off. (I keep the top off anyway).
The picture he posted is the General Engine Products engine. You can tell by the long rectangular shape of the sticker. (and it says General Engine Products
) They are the improved 6.5L engines that Am General is building. The bought the rights from GM and fixed some of the known issues.The GEP engines are the ones you want.
