Out of curiosity how much hp does the gep make? I dont need a "hot rod" humvee with a duramax making 500hp but id love to get a solid 250-300hp. Which I hear is actually pretty doable in the 6.5l, feel free to correct me if im wrong.

Honestly Im going to have to agree. The engine I have access to is dirt cheap. But I keep adding up all the stuff it will need to work and its getting close to 3k. And thats not even including the fact I plan on upgrading the tranny at the same time to a 4l80!

Thanks for the info. The engine I have access to is a 1999 6.5l and it has a blown head gasket. I figured if I opened it up and it was fine. Aka just blown head gasket that I could build it with the correct heads and such. I would also put a mechanical injection pump on it.

So to all the engine guys out there I am looking to build a 6.5l turbo diesel for a humvee. I have some questions tho. Is it possible to switch from a side turbo to a center turbo? Would I just need the new heads,intake,turbo? Or could I use a stock intake and heads and just build a centermount...
I am located near the IL/Wisconsin border and the truck is located near Crystal lake Wisconsin. I could drive my dads truck with a flatbed trailer rated to hold the truck but thats about a 6 hour drive both ways so a 12 hour round trip.

Don't worry none of that stuff was on my list. I like the engine and everything. It is all cosmetic mods I want to do.

I am still waiting for them to send me more photos but this is what I have right now. I got lots of ideas roaming around for this beast! I just gotta save a little more and decide on the 12 hour journey or possible shipping.

I havent actually taken a look at it but I assume it needs shoes. But if I should replace anything else as preventative maintence let me know what!

Hey all I am new here. I have been looking for a nice 6x6 and a m211 popped up around me. But it needs brakes. Is there anywhere I can get new brakes? Its mechanically good and is in overall nice condition. Any thing I should look for? Any advice from owners is well liked!! Thanks ~Reno
