oil cooler lines 6.5 turbo

[corelokt]

I need to know how to connect the cooler lines to my Teds 6.5l engine. The space is to cramped for one to fit without bending it to much. Will a 6.2l oil filter adapter/block fix this?

I have a 1997 6.5 in my 86 1028A3, the only thing I had to do was install bushings and screw in the 6.2 oil cooler line fittings into the bushings in the block. It all bolted right up.

any chance you could take a picture. Mine is way to cramped. My engine is the latest military version, current production.

Remove your original 6.2 oil cooler fittings, insert bushings in the 6.5 block, then install the 6.2 fittings in the 6.5 block connect your cooler lines.

I think the issue is that the one in my truck is for a HUMV not a CUCV.

There is no difference in the basic engine block.

Except the 6.2 and the 6.5 have different size block fittings.

If the 6.5 has an extended oil filter adapter, ditch it, and use the the info I provided.

Assuming this is going into a CUCV

Somethings not the same. Mine does not have enough room for the oil cooler line to come out from the filter and make the bend it needs to, to not hit the frame.

the 6.5 and the 6.2 are exactly the same externally, the 6.5 you have may have a bolt on oil filter/cooler adapter

If this is going in a CUCV, unbolt it, and use the info I provided.

If I'm wrong somebody speak up

I'll get back under and relook things over. Been cold and no garage. I hope it's something simple.
