Does this pic help?The alt should be in front of the bracket. But the passenger side is behind it's bracket. Also the belts are a different length.

Do you have the alt on the correct side of the top bracket? It should be in front of the bracket.

I cant imagine how hot his tranny in the towing truck had to be. It looks like a pretty small truck.

Did you get it running?

Any chances of doing this again this year?

Order 3 more kits. If one is bad the other 3 wont be too far behind. They have all been through the same crap together.

Like they stated above. Go through everything bumper to bumper. Replace anything questionable. Change the oil in everything no matter if it needs it or not. Grease everything else. Grease all the CV joints and replace the boots with new ones. If you can take spare half shafts, then do so. Flush...

Try this post: You will have to scroll quite far to see the intake. This thread: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showth...e-Build-Thread Post #88 shows the manifold on an engine with just the holes drilled. Post #170 has the finished manifold. I don't really have any other pictures of it...

Barrman did this to a intake on a engine he was working on. I believe it was his suburban. He posted some pics of it . Mabye he can chime in here????

I have overheated mine while off roading. If I ride the brakes a lot going down hills at slow speeds it would over heat. I installed a PS cooler from a mid 90'schevy truck with a 6.5. If you put it in the tranny cooler in the rad, you will overheat it! You are introducing heat into the system...

Try flowkooler.com. They still carry them along with high volume water pumps

It is probally over heating. It you are on the brakes a lot at low speeds or something is wore out the fluid will over heat and expand then puke out.

3/8 NPT in the head. If you tried a 3/8 straight pipe thread it will be way too loose. Most gauges are 3/8 straight but come with the adaptor in the box.

If the metal line going down the transmission is still there try to reuse it. I tried rubber vac hose with out good results. I believe the metal line inside dia meters the vacume.

that is strange. The engine should have reved really high before shifting with out the vacume pump hooked up.

I'm planning on swapping to a 330-180 thermostat and I found a 190 switch. I'd like to keep it in the 180 range. Even while off road in South Texas.

Yes, This pump provides vacume for the transmission modulator. Since the 6.2 has no throttle valve like a gas engine there is almost no vacume in the intake manifold. This pump provides the vacume and is piped into the valve on the IP then down to the vacume modulator on the passenger side of...

That is the vacume pump. You can rotate it any where you like but it is not adjustable. Your adjustment for the shift points is done with the valve mounted on the passenger side if the Injector Pump. The line from the pump should go to the I P Valve. Then down to the transmission.

I will be swapping the engine for a GEP 6.5 this winter. The rad will be going to a local shop to be taken apart and cleaned. I'm thinking it might be clogged a bit.I've seen Pics of Humvee scoops in Iraq. I haven't made one yet. But I'm a machinist so fabing one like in the pics looks like it...

Thanks for the info. I'm planning on swapping to a 180 thermostat and possible a lower temp switch for the fan. Possibly a hood scoop. Right now the fan runs more than not. I was wondering at what point the outside temp would make a difference. Since it hardly ever gets cold here .
