I have a running 6.2 and a 93 truck with a bad 6.5 in it: can I replace the 6.5 with the 6.2? How involved is this? I assume that they are basically the same engine.

Yes, almost the same. You'll want the 6.5L heads, IP and injectors on the 6.2L longblock.

well, one of the things wrong with the 6.5 is the IP. can I just drop the 6.2 in as it is?

What year is your 6.2? This will determine what changes are needed.
