i have read some change the the old 6.2 IP and Injectors out for 6.5 once
what kind of numbers should the 6.5 IP and Injectors have just so i know what to look for since i might be able to get it cheap from a low millage engine

i think if you are using the old heads the 6.5 inj wont work they are fine thread..im not sure about the heads on newer 6.2..if they have the inj. at the same angle or not so the hard lines might not work either..but i am still learning all the differences

I don't know the #'s but make sure its mechanically injected ie, '93 or older. I'm also pretty sure the thread is the same (only year of coarse thread was '82) and the angle just needs some hard line tweaking. Just thought if you search under 4320's name he recently put in a pump from a 6.5 and he put up the #'s. May have to do a lot of searching tho he posts a lot

lol thanks man :D . i tossed on a 6.5 ip. all that i had to do, was put it where the other one came from. the injectors are the same thing, if the heads are 1983+ the shortie injectors will work. to make the lines fit just push them down and get the nuts started(DO NOT CROSSTHREAD THEM!) and when you tighten them down the lines will bend so that the sealing parts of the lines line up and dont leak. but i dont recomend putting a 6.5 ip on a N/A 6.2. all it will do is make it un drivable since the EGT's will always be too hot. mine get hot enough and i have an iron lung hanging off the side of it :D

Thanks Brent mines a 84
it will be a twin turbo, so i might as well put a bigger pump and Injectors

BTW when will we see a new movie with yours with the 6.5 upgrade?

once i get my rad cleaned, timing chain, and turbonator intake :D then ill see if i can get a race against my friend again with the cummins. i raced him yesterday and i smoked him all the way up to 50 mph then his tires hooked up and he was off like a shot lol.

Sand bags, Brent. Sand bags. One behind each wheel well.

wouldn't it be easier to loosen one of his boost hose clamps? :D

yea that, or open the air bleed on his fuel filter :D

put a chevy emblem on it, that'll slow it down haha...

probably not. then he'll beat me for sure. if i jam a blue oval on it along with the dodge logo im sure to beat his truck to a pulp lol :D

i didnt even derail this one! NOT MY FAULT! i just said my part then someone asked for a video then POOF it was toast.

Some of you asked about moving from 6.5 to 6.2 = my experience:
Trashed 1994,6.5 T, to a 6.2 N/A early model. Problem bolting the 6.5 turbo manifold to the old style head (right bank) . Had a 1/4" spacer laser cut and plan to try to fit it next week. used the 6.5 electronic IF so switched the electronic dampener sensor to the 6.2. Runs great till i accelerate then over fuel something terrible. Hope the turbo addition fixes the problem. Haven't decided where to pick up the turbo oil supply - probably from a "T" off the oil pressure sensor port. I had to use the 6.5 exhaust on drivers side so oil filter and base would fit.

Brent, put the sand bags in your truck not his. The little extra weight on your tail will help hook up. Not a lot, but enough.
Cheating is never an option.

mine hooked up after i dropped into second. his was burning all the way into 4th.

i laugh everytime i see this post

lets just say when i passed that mini van i lost where they were in the cloud of blue smoke pouring outa the old girl on the way home :D

How I wished I could understand more Danish than "slick mine pick" Or something like that

Ok, I need to understand correctly, (I am simple) 0432 217 276 6.5 TD injectors will fit on an '85 6.2..?? :I:confused::rolleyes::confuzeld:duh::rotflmao::cl ap::huh:

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that the main difference between 6.5 injectors and 6.2 injectors is the size and angle which is just so that they don't interfere with the turbo housing. MOST parts from a mechanically injected 6.5 and a 6.2 (post '82 for injectors)are entirely interchangeable. Some don't work as well but do work.

just the body length. the heads are what have the angle change to clear the manifold.

I enjoy to information. I am learning on this site every time I post and get replies as well as punch the buttons-words to find repliies!! Thanks for the smiley faces to play with!!

:cool:):h:coolnana::beerchug::horsey::ninja::rocki ng::rotflmao::stirthepo:snipersmi:missedwhat::sofa :

See i knew someone would correct me

88 and up and van injectors are the same size as 6.5 injectors. the pop pressure is slightly higher on the turbo ones

well i am still new to 6.2 diesel being it is my first vehicle.. but on my 1988 chevy k2500 6.2 my injectors are longer than 6.5td injectors? is this wierd? i am converting mine to a 6.5td top end and turbo setup!:RockOn:
But i aint gonna lie i have done some rebuilds on old farmalls and olivers but this is nerve racking!:banghead:
O and speaking of tractors lol that jd sounds like it pretty damn mean!

yea 6.2's got long injectors unless they were in a van. then 6.5's got short injectors. the 6.5 turbo injectors have a higher pop presure than 6.2 injectors.

what does pop pressure? is this a idi term? i havn't heard this before!

its the presure it takes to make the injector open. and it makes a popping/chatter noise when this is done rapidly.

so does this pose a problem with my ip or no?

nope, main thing you might need to do is to advance the timing some. thats about it :thumb:
