saw in current copy of diesel progress magazine, engines section, that AM General is coming out with forged steel crankshaft, stronger rods, recalibrated fuel pump for engine to get more HP. just thought you wanted to know, think more metal to block also.

This could be a response to the upamoring requiring more bhp to get around and run the a/c.

pretty much what it is coming from, one peice main cap/stud girdle. look here www.dpna-digital.com/dpna-sample/200606/ page 40-41 to read. $ yes but good in long run.

This link should be in the FAQs......tons of information about the 6.5.....pretty close to service manual quality.....too bad the pictures don't seem to work in either IE or Mozilla.....

Enter the site as a guest.....works fine...
