Hey, new to the GMT400 forums but I figured this was the group of die-hards where I belonged.Love my truck to death and im on the way to making it stand out and give it an edge. It first had a 4.3 in it then that came out and a 305 went in, then the 350. Which has been unstoppable in the reg cab, half-ton stepside.Mild performance upgrades just to keep the power crisp and fun.But Im on a mission haha picked up a 1995 6.5TD for a few hundred bucks and whenever I have free time will be stripping it down and rebuilding it with all the right upgrades(heavy-duty waterpump/duramax fan/ARP head studs/etc) Just wanted to see if anyone had done a 6.5 swap and any problems or advice they had.Can i beef up a nv3500 to handle it or should i really try and find the nv4500? im def going to a 14bolt semi-floater rear as im going to have a 4inch susp lift and 35 on the truck..maybe even 37s
