    Am I on the right track with this engine build?

    Would it be possible for you to check it and see if it is the 6.5 block? If so I would like to buy that off of you.

    Am I on the right track with this engine build?

    Lol, right on. My M1009 also is tan, and has the same markings on the door. Until I lifted it, and put the soft top on, they didn't even check me at the roy gate... lol... The markings are faded out, but no one ever said anything to me about them. Anywho, time to go pack the connex...

    Am I on the right track with this engine build?

    Actually if you look on this site, you will see the M1009 is a multi fuel truck. Quite a bit of folks run WMO and WVO in them. From what I have read, they have hardened parts in the IP. Anywho, I see you are at lewis, thats where I am out of. Look for my CUCV when I get home at the end of the...

    Am I on the right track with this engine build?

    Well I know the tips fit the injectors. I was mainly asking about the pump because if the DB2 will give me significantly more power, I think I should grab one while im doing all of this anyways.

    Am I on the right track with this engine build?

    Okie Dokie, so I am in Afghanistan right now. Over the course of this deployment I have been buying parts to build the 6.2 in my 86 M1009 (military blazer). As of right now, i have brand new glow plugs (the correct military ones), brand new GM-8 turbo, brand new 6.5 intake (complete)...
