Put a 12 valve in it

Pump off and got the bolt off, is there any specific sealant the bolts calls for? I can't find anything in the TMs on water pump replacement Also, the plate to the engine, is loctite 515 the correct gasket maker to use? Just making sure before I bolt it back together

Doing this with the super glue next, ez out didn't work for me

Damn, that's exactly what scares me the most, going to end up trying to get it off with a reverse bit, if that doesn't work then off the water pump goes again

Off topic but I am going with the viscous fan setup this time

May end up trying this, I always had bad luck with reverse bits and ez outs with anything torqued down, I may just see if there be any leak, if not, I'll let it be for now because I used a ton of teflon tape on it.

I used the old bolt, I was setting it to 20ft Ibs of torque and it broke soon when my wrench clicked. I put a lot of teflon tape before I threaded it in. As much as I want to get it out, I would hate to remove the entire water pump back off to take off that broken bolt

I know I'm going to get eating up for this one, but I ended up breaking one of the bolt heads, do I actually have to go and take this bolt off to avoid any leaks? This is one of the two bolts on the bottom. I know the water pump is completely sealed off from every other bolt torqued down...

My last cadillac valve done this same exact thing, about 2 weeks later, either it gave out or something else, that cause the fan to turn 100%. I decided to do away with that whole crappy system and go to the viscious fan clutch setup, can't wait to see how it does. No more failing TDMs, Cadillac...

Don't know, I can definitely see a difference in comparison with the 6.5 NA, that's an almost 100hp difference and probably has almost 2x more torque

Does anyone have a part list of what can be done to make our 6.5s the closes to a P400? I know about the forged crankshaft but not sure on everything else

Interesting, makes me wonder how it would do behind the P400 6.5s, unfortunately they're really rare, but I'm still a huge fan of the 6.5s because of how simple they are compared to the duramax and the size compared to the cummins.

Ran quite a bit of deliveries in mines last year and definitely getting some write offs for business expenses lol

Use the humvee as a transport vehicle and you have another write off lol

Yep, still waiting on this and the 6 speed from Phoenix Hummer Repair...

I know dead thread, but wouldn't a 6L80e or 6L90e be the best overall modification for better MPG? Overall, you get better ratios and have a .67 overdrive. Even though the 4l80e is a good upgrade from the 3 speed, it still burns a lot of fuel at 65-70 big time and the engine still be screaming...

I run everstart batteries so no reason the optimas shouldn't work

Any update?

I'll just mount it directly on top of the radiator like the H1's

Don't worry, becoming bald is all part of it, hence why I'm about to apply my rogaine hair growth in the next 2 minutes...
