Cool about the find. Not so cool about the crack. It's an NA motor then?

Yeah I have always known my 96 6.5 had the hair line crack but gonna run it until it dies I guess.

The seller said it was NA setup that was going to be put into a suburban. I am not entirely sure what that means. I don't know that much about them. I just know it has the better design so would be better suited to build up to replace the one I am currently running.

82GMCK.. guess what issues I am running into...

Also! Screw (pun intended) that stock 6.5 FFM. I have a duramax one on the way!

Any help or more insight on the plastic intake box meeting the cast air intake box of the banks setup? I remember you said it was a pain.

Stripping it down for paint! I moved everything but the cab and frame to my painters place last night. Super excited about the color change. We are stripping it completely down for the recolor.

I am also removing the dash to replace with one that hasn't been cut up and beat on, so that should be interesting.
