    Has anyone converted a 6.2 into a turbo charged unit?

    that makes 2 of us!!! until a Mod chimes in...I'm not sure why if you post in the M35/deuce forum something about turning up an IJ pump for more power and they move it to the "hot rodding" forum, but the HMMWV forum is "whatever the F**k"

    well, if your not trying to be an a**hole, I would hate to see it when you try....but I for one will not provide you any further intput on this topic or any other moving forward. You come here asking questions and you want to dictate the answers? Good luck with your Bubba work....

    Do all you want to the motor, it won't make a difference till you get a 4th gear. This truck was not made for commuting and interstate driving, it was designed for a combination of both, with an emphasis on payload. These truck were meant for convoy speeds. So a 4L80E or 700r4 is "IMO" the best...
