2 dollars Ill be over with the truck tomorrow to pick it up. LOl. Depends waht the casting number is and hwen it was made, complete engine or just the long block??? I just recently had a horror story on the 6.5 turbo. Long story short. Driving bluew the heads, while i was in there put in heads head gaskets, glow plugs everythign to do it right. Started it up and low oil pressure and a heck of a noise. Sickening at only 150,000 miles. Dont know what to do w/my truck now. Got so much money tied up in the top end to junk out, cant seem to find a buyer for it as is. Bottom end is a real pain as its a 4x4 and cant jsut pull the pan and spin some bearings in IF the crank shaft was ok. Bought a new truck to replace it for now. The 6.2 was a great engine (havent had good luck w/6.5 nor known people w/good luck. Dads turck had 390,000 hard miles on it (pulling anhydrous wagons, grain wagons) with a 4.10 rear end and 3spd auto that made her scream. They were good trucks. had one w/289,000 miles was pretty good. Like i said not high horsepower (and dont try to make them with injectors and turbos etc) and hard to start relativly, but goo dowrk horses.
