Boat anchor removed.
Plans for the old motor?
Remove all usable brackets and then scrapyard. There’s nothing worth saving after being open intake to the elements for the past nine or so years.
Haters....lol build that sucker! Good for what it was designed for, not great for big power or heavy towing. I like 'em.
I don't agree with this
I agree with this.
Plenty of good engines still around, no need to revive a rusty anchor
Not saying the 6.5 was inherently bad. Just the years with the electronic injection.
Even with the best module and remote mount kit.
Go back a few years to the mechanical and all is well lol.
12v is still better

Yeah but for the money, I can get a running 6.5td for $300-600, sometimes even with the truck.Not saying the 6.5 was inherently bad. Just the years with the electronic injection.

I enjoyed my 6.2 when it was in my cucv. Wasn't fast and kind slow but it was nice to drive.
The turbo really wakes it up.
I drive my 6.2 turbodiesel as much as I can and I did drive my 6.5td for a few months until someone offered me $1800 for the engine so I sold it
Will a 4l80 live behind a 12v?
I disagree. My ‘00 crew cab is a beast. Best cooling setup and plenty of tuners out there to make them a lot of fun for a little money. My current setup beats my ‘03 Duramax off the line and then holds a truck length until about an 1/8th mile, then the Duramax catches up and passes. You drop the heat soaking factory turbo for something that builds cooler boost, and you really start to see what these can do.
