Hey all, new to the thread, i have been active in some other threads but just came across this one and since I have an ole 6.2 diesel thought I could get some good info from you guys. Here is my ride as it sits now, there will be alot mods coming for it, most of them are sitting in my garage. I am deployed to the "Stan right now so when I get home in October I will be able to start working on this, I can't wait.
Going to keep it in NA form, I do not want to put a turbo on at this point, just want to see the power I can squeeze from it all natural.
Here is my list of things that I have already and some that I do not
-4" Suspension Lift
-SM465 4 speed to replace TH400
-Old school aluminum slotted mags
-33x12.5 TSL's
-4" custom cold air intake
-Headers from Stan's Headers
-Ported and polished heads
-3" true-dual exhaust probably through glass packs just cause I like the way they sound
-Lower end girdle kit
-(Wish List)Ceramic coated pistons bored .30 over, keeping 21.5:1 CR
-Head stud kit
-Rebuilt DB4544 IP turned up
-3.73 gears all around
-Timing gear replacement kit
-(Wish List) Heath Diesel custom cam for NA setup with springs
-Custom made Water/Alky Injection kit, (still in planning stage)
So what do you guys think? I think this will make a dead reliable rig and pretty much maintenance free. Of course I won't be smoking any Dodges or fords any time soon with it, I will be mosying along sippin diesel though for years to come. Hoping this puts me even with the 6.2 they put in the HMMWV's which were putting out an impressive 165 HP and 330 TQ, if I can get that I will be very happy.
Open to suggestions and comments, thanks guys.
