May seem obvious but...
The Duramax is a diesel design right from the get-go. Isuzu/GM partnership. The 6.2/6.5 are also diesel designs Detroit Diesel/GM partnership. The 5.7 diesel was the gas-conversion job.- EMD Diesel Power

I agree with Towcat. Titles are one thing, but keeping both the Title and the Vin tags??? Bet good beer that there is a lien on it and they're out to **** the lienholder (usually a bank).- EMD Diesel Power

Did the 01' X not have a cat?
Yep... Urban mining.... Idiots with sawzalls. zip zip and away they go with the cat.... and you have a big hole in the exhaust system. It was a problem awhile back, but now it seems to have kinda faded out. Not sure on the coasts though.- EMD Diesel Power

engine sleeves
No, The B-series Cummins is a parent-bore engine. No sleeves/liners at all in it. If the bores are damaged, then they can be bored over and the appropriate oversize pistons and rings installed.

IT WONT STOP SWEEKING please help!
Also have you noticed if the hubs/drums are getting hot??? Im thinking that the brakes are hanging up and producing the squeek, however the drums/hubs should be on the hot side as well.

The 2nd and 3rd gen. 24 valves are a different story, longer...- EMD Diesel Power

Driving in the snow...
Way off topic considering its a car, but I drive a Mustang with Bridgestone Blizzak WS-60 winter tires on it, and I wouldnt drive anything else in the snow. Mine is an '06 with the V6 and traction control (manual tranny). Basically you have to be an idiot to put the car into the ditch. Does...- EMD Diesel Power

I remember reading a whole crap-load of information somewhere regarding just the 53 issue blocks. If I can find it again, I'll post the link.
