1996 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with the 6.5L Detroit Turbo Diesel.

So far i have added a radio, receiver hitch, 7 pin, and towing mirrors.

To come this week, New glow plugs and control relay, and glow plug bypass.

Good looking truck. Like the color combo

I've always been a sucker for this color combo when i saw it, and saw the price i couldn't resist.

NIce Rig man!

Did you do a high idle switch in your 6.5 JScott23?

 

[95C1500]

I know great white did

I want to do one but have not even the slightest clue of where to start... i feel like i knew everything about the 350, but with this diesel i have not a clue. Kind of the reason i bought this diesel was to learn more about them.

check out great white's thread, jscott's threads and 88gmctruck's 99 ECLB build thread. They know a lot about those engines and how to make them reliable

Good looking truck!

Here's the best place to do some reading and research on the GM 6.5 diesel, from what i've seen this is the biggest group of 6.5 owners..
