Willomette has the setup just needs more pump and rpm. Love this detailed content/production the 6.2/6.5 world lacks....and most have given up on this underdog but a forged crank/fluidampner motor has got a ton of potential with a big CC pump w 5k rpm governer/big CC flowing + more boost.

Brought back a lot of good memories of my Father and I working on 6.2s. Very impressed on how clean you kept everything! We replaced a lot of timing chains for people, that gear drive is slick. The chains would get so worn that you could not turn the pump far enough to get timing. Only two things we did different and this is not a criticism of what you did. We had a setup to install injector lines on the pump before it went in the vehicle. The early starters would not take much abuse so we would pull glow plugs and roll the engine over to get oil and fuel bled. Very nice work and thank you for sharing!

Thanks for sharing your awesome build! Very nice quality build and video. I’ve been driving and wrenching on 6.2L and 6.5L diesels since 1995. I love these old rigs. My current ride is a 1995 Chevy Tahoe 2 Door with the factory 6.5L. Has 396K on the odometer. I was hoping to reach 400K before any major work, but she blew a head gasket about 2 years ago. I now have about 17K miles on a 506 block I rebuilt and dropped in. Mostly stock but I did upgrade to an HX35 turbo. Another first start tip: remove all the glow plugs and then spin the engine over until fuel mist starts coming out the holes. This is so much easier on the starter and makes sure the engine is well lubed before there’s any real pressure on the components. That’s what I did here: bled the system by cranking the engine over without glow plugs. As you can see, she fired right up. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4GwfqeDdt6Eo9E Keep up the great work!

This rebuild series has given me so much inspiration to do my own 6.5 build one day. I think I've re-watched this 3 times now and I just love it! What I'm thinking right now for my own hypothetical build is to use a stock engine and change out some key furnishings, like putting a Fluidampr on, but keep block parts stock. Except for one key component! You already put TotalSeal piston rings in your build. But I want to go a step further and put the Speed of Air pistons in, which use TotalSeal rings. That's the wet dream right now. Can't stop obsessing about the SoA pistons! If those guys play their cards right, their patents should become the next big revolution in combustion engines!

Pro tip for the 6.5. The fuel system will prime itself up wonderfully if you have a lift pump relay with a manual activation. You can run the lift pump and fill up the fuel bowl and then fill the injection pump up too. I’ve had my whole fuel system apart a few times and being able to run the lift pump manually has been a major help priming the pump and getting it ready to go. I’m in the middle of rebuilding my 6.5 right now. Waiting on parts and paying off cards so I can order more parts.

@@jonathancorbett5917 unfortunately GM had a real boneheaded moment with the 6.5. They ran the power for the fuel lift pump through the contacts for the oil pressure sensor so it shuts off the lift pump if you lose oil pressure to preserve the engine. The problem is there is no relay, it just tends to burn out the oil pressure sensor over time. Companies like Leroy diesel have made a harness that adds a relay to get the power off of the contacts and gives larger wires to deliver full power to the lift pump so it runs better and the better units also give a button to allow easy priming and an extra activation lead that gets connected to the glow plug relay to give a key on priming feature.

​@@brunothehumbleonly obd1's powered the lift pump via the ops. All 6.5l trucks have a fuel pump relay, starting with obd2 they added a trigger wire from the PCM to trigger the fuel pump relay when it was running. And GM gave you an EASY way to run the lift pump by itself to prime the fuel system, put the vehicle in gear, and turn the key to start. This will trigger the fuel pump relay to power the lift pump, but because it's in gear it will not turn over, and thus primes the fuel system. It's listed in the diesel supplement manual for priming the fuel system.

Great write up that brings back fond memories. I bought my first 6.2 powered truck in 1984, it was a 1983 GMC 3/4 ton that I just sold a year ago after my dad passed away because he bought it from me when I was strapped for cash years ago. My first 6.2 swap was into my 1970 Chevy Blazer that I ran the Rubicon trail with back in 1985. Around 1990 I started turbo charging 6.2's and later started swapping 6.5's in place of the 6.2s. Somewhere around 1999 I bought a half ton Suburban like yours that was originally 6.2 powered and went to work building my ultimate off road suburban. I bought a set of Penninsular marine pistons for an 18:1 compression ratio and a 4911 injection pump that was set WIDE OPEN, I was running a Rajay turbocharger and a 4 inch exhaust, Dana 60 front with detroit locker, gm 14 bolt rear with detroit locker, 20k Braden pto winch, NVG 4500 5 speed and NP205 transfer case. I ran a 6" lift with 35x12.5 tires, it was fun. I later got the cummins bug and pulled my 6.5 and swapped in a 24v cummins and while the cummins was tuned and making big power, it really didn't do anything a lot better than the 6.5 because if I worked it hard it would overheat. The cummins also kept stripping the 32 spline output shaft on my NVG4500 and I had to upgrade to a 23 spline output from a Dodge. I lost count of how many 6.2 powered vehicles that I have owned, but I was loyal to them as long as they didn't have EGR. I almost swapped a 6.5 TD into my 97 Jeep TJ, but ultimately decided on a Cummins R2.8 to keep the weight down.

I've enjoyed watching the 6.5 build and the attention to detail is second to none... I'm glad this thing has held up. A few things to note, just for viewers sake. First, copper coat is not meant for composite head gaskets, only steel shim type, composite units have their own "stick" and copper coat is just a lubricant on top, if you haven't had a gasket failure yet, excellent. Second, filling the IP from the top won't prime it, these pumps are inlet metered, so everything comes in from the cone regardless, it's not like a VE where the case pressure fills the plunger assembly. Third, the pumps are all calibrated at 1700psi, and the further north you get pop pressure wise, the more volume you lose, including cranking volume. Higher pop pressure definitely cleans these IDI's up, but overall power suffers past 2200psi, as that is when the additional power of higher pop is countered by the loss in volume... As is the potential for hot start issues... It's a balance. All that aside, looks like a super clean setup, I dig the build, and hope it lasts a long time.

@@WillometMotorFab The truck got scrapped, but the long block of the 6.5 got reused in our the replacement truck - a 1994 big dually crew cab. But then running with a DS4 electronic fuel pump with the 4L80E transmission and electronic wastegate control. Would be more hassle to try to convert everything to mechanical operation. And the DS4 is supposed to have slightly higher fuel output than the DB2. The truck ran great for years, and the engine certainly could handle more diesel than the pump could deliver, since we could never get it to roll coal. It was estimated to produce about 320hp and 600-650 lbs.ft. Unfortunately my father passed away in 2017, so I sold the truck to one of his friends. And it is still running with the same setup as a daily driver today.

Always loaded with tools and extra fuel, hauled snowmobiles up north a few times a year on company trips in the winters, hauled the family cruiser with it in the summers, even slammed it through a 4' snowbank of salty packed snow from state plows.

Then we had to climb out the windows and trudge ½ mile to the machine and quite literally push the truck into the parking lot by the hitch with the snow pusher. Last I heard some young kid in Massachusetts bought it for a daily. He came back a few years ago to buy the extra bed we had lying around for it cos it just got too bad so I know it's still out there somewhere 🤷‍♂️ leave it to an old GM man they'll surprise you as long as you take care of them

My first diesel was a '96 6.5L with a 5 speed manual. It was an awesome truck that served me well. I've had an LBZ duramax since 2009 and though I do like this truck more, if I wanted a manual trans, I'd opt for the 6.5L over a Duramax for sure. Gobs of torque available AT IDLE and right above, vs. more modern diesels (cummins excepted perhaps...) that have nothing till the turbo spools up... My old 6.5 got just as good, if not better mileage than my Duramax and it was a LOT less complicated and much easier to fix. If nothing else, injectors being 1/10 the price of LBZ injectors is something it's hard to argue against...

That box end wrench with a slit cut in the end of it was pretty ingenious. You probably already know they make wrenches like that called flare nut wrenches, they are made to resist splaying if you have had any issues with that. Another method is to use a crows foot flare nut wrench with and extension to access the pump connections. Typical crows foot wrench is rather large like and open end wrench. But they do make ones that are thinner like a flare nut wrench / box wrench. I used one once with an extension and a ratchet and was able to remove and reinstall the injection pump without pulling the manifold. Wish you would have shown the head porting. Did they actually port the heads or just port match them? I did just some simple port matching myself so the ports were the same size as the gaskets. I was surprised how much smaller the ports were than the gaskets.

Still have two 6.5 trucks. One is getting a cummins but the 6.5 really isn't a bad engine once that unreliable DS4 electronic injection pump is gone. They don't make the absolute power of the new trucks but with simple exhaust, more fuel, and an adjustable wastegate my 6.5 would outrun my 2005 cummins when it was stock. I still get in my 6.5 truck and still love how snappy the throttle response is. Great trucks if you're not towing 20,000lbs and don't care about making 1000hp.
