turbo 6.2 Detroit diesel walk-around and sound

[@therealRustyShackleford]

I had a '97 K-2500 6.5 with a straight pipe that sounded just like that. Sounded good plowing parking lots.

[@matthewheinze1231]

Favorite GM paint scheme!!!! Interesting combo of swaps makes it slick!!

[@mckadebrown1908]

That thing sounds like a semi! Awesome truck!!

[@lonelybikr]

Truck looks and sounds mean. 👌 it's expensive to do upgrades but the improvements are noticeable. Make more vids as it gets better.

[@compressorhead02]

Sweet sounds good and I'm only into my turbo about $300

[@letauch]

This is cheap as hell.

[@houstonthomas7802]

Beautiful truck!

Thank you!

[@rjones9843]

Love your fall guy truck. Wish she was mine

[@compressorhead02]

i didnt even realize i made a kind of copy of the fall guy truck until after i lifted it and modified it

[@robertschreiber8099]

Takes me back to an '80's TV show. The Fall Guy. Lee Majors played a Hollywood stuntman, with a side job, as a bounty hunter. My old Dodge.... same two tone, miss's something. LOVE those wheels, and tires, though.

[@compressorhead02]

Thank you so much!

Oh, wow, I didn't know you were doing all that fabricating! Nice truck

Thank you!

Awesome truck! Looks good and sounds good!

[@detroitdiesel7074]

Awesome man, if you ever rebuild it I would suggest putting a forged crank in that old girl so you don’t have any problems running some power.

[@EricOlson-j8i]

Cool ride man!

thanks!

Nice job

[@Ja3g3rmast3r]

Are the Cooper STT Pro any good in snowy conditions? Looking for a good Tire i can use year round. Nice Truck btw *.*

[@compressorhead02]

yes sir they are i work at an off-road shop and we sell them all the time people love them including me. they aren't the best tire you can buy but they are the best band for your buck and think they look awesome! Thanks for the compliment i have worked hard to build this truck.

[@jimsmith9819]

Alf, i have four BF Goodrich All Terrain TAs on mine and was driving in a foot of snow in 2WD most of the winter with no problems

Awesome truck! Does the 4inch exhaust make it drone in the cab going down the highway? Last time I had a truck with a 4 inch tailpipe it was obnoxiously loud in the cab, even with a huge muffler! Thanks!

[@compressorhead02]

Surprisingly not my truck is really quiet actually for having no mufflers. but it might not drone because it's 3 inch pipe until it gets to the bed of the truck then it is 4 inch the rest of the way. It might drone if it was 4 inch all the way

[@caballos2772]

Did you put anything other than the turbo in the engine?

[@compressorhead02]

I put a fluiddampr on it replaced the front main seal and timing chain

[@aha3335]

What did you have to do to convert your 6.2 to a turbo? Like whats everything youd need to add to make it work. Id love to turbo my 82 blazer

[@compressorhead02]

@@aha3335 you are going to need an oil feed and oil return, you will also need an exhaust manifold and an intake manifold which you can source from 6.5 diesel you can even use the 6.5 turbo probably the oil feed line and the drain on the oil pan or you can try to source an old banks kit but those are rare and expensive

[@compressorhead02]

@@aha3335 6.5 are significantly more common than the bank's kits you could even just swap the 6.5 into your Blazer It would bolt up depending upon whether you have air conditioning in the truck you might have to modify your blower motor assembly that has the AC stuff in it

Were could I find that manifold? I’ve been wanting to turbo my 85 without taking the ac out and I looks like you have it in with that manifold

[@compressorhead02]

Yeah it's basically the same as a banks manifold but this one is a BAE manifold I got it with my truck when I bought it I couldn't tell you where you can get them

[@garrettsmargian7009]
