yea ur right but i would have that torque that im lookin for wouldnt
i??? ive never had anything diesel besides my bobcat haha so i dont
know what im gonna do yet...i really like the sbc as thats all ive
ever messed with but im deff thinkin bout a big block....but yea the
6.5 runs like a champ....and he has a banks turbo kit that he never
got to put on it that i can have for an additional $350...what kinda
power will a stock 6.5 put out????and i sont think id have a problem
swapping in a diesel cuz i will have the parts truck over here at my
shop to pull the motor and all.....thanks
