Just picked up my first diesel, '05 2500HD, 6.6L Duramax/Allison. Had it 4 days and i love it! The truck is loaded and only has 28k. I hear there are lots of mods to be made. Hoping to learn alot from this site

LB7 LLY LBZ and LMM are the engine codes depending on year. One of the senior members can break it down for ya by year, or you can find by searching.

Newbie here as well. Great crew, great information.
