from Diesel to Ls swap on my M1008

Its Cracked. Im tired of ip's and diesel and this kinda pushed me over. buying a used 6.2 that could have cracked mains is not my idea of wanting to spend money.
My friend thinks we can take my 3 motors and make one good one but the 6.5 is locked up, the 6.2 from my truck has cracked mains and my other 6.2 has a broke crank shaft so makes me wonder.

So Cucvnut is not nuts about CUCVs anymore? I understand that. But you might request a change of username. :wink1:

Freeing the 6.5 might not be a big deal. But it might be more headache than you want.

so what's the plan?


We are going to pull apart the 6.5 and my other 6.2 see what the blocks look like and see if one will work and build that motor and or find a cheap 6.2 but pickings are slim up here in Oregon. If we cant find one I will sell my turbo stuff and all my 6.2 parts and find a BBC or SBC to use.

I would imagine theres 350s laying all over the place if it comes to that.
