Just thought I should say hello. I'm new here but not new to diesels. I currently own 11 cheys with 6.5s or 6.2s. I can't seem to get my sig to stick but will get that figured out[entered it twice now]. I have tons of pics and will get to posting them hopefully some time soon. I have one in my avitar now. I enjoy sharing my experience as well as learning from others.
Now back to reading, Barry
PS got a couple pics to load. I need to resize the rest. Sig also loaded:eek:

Holy hanna - thats quite a fleet! I am from Elk River, MN and was just through your town yesterday...

Welcome aboard, there is a wealth of information/experience here for you. I am certain you'll be contributing yours, as well!

I have no willpower. I can't pass up a good deal. I think my hobby has turned into a addiction:cool:

Wow! I don't think I've ever seen anyone with such a large collection of 6.5L's. Are these all personal use trucks, or are they business use?

Welcome!

Personal use only. 3 of them are blown up.1 needs a tranny and another needs a IP. I bought them that way for cheap.I have all the parts to fix them and then some. Here's some of the parts.

Nice fleet, and welcome aboard!

I've been called (and conceded), a pack rat. Now, I'll have to deny it. "Wow!" is spot on.

That's quite a collection! How many complete engines do you have?

I'd say you're on the edge of being a bit crazy....and I LIKE IT!! :D

The 92 is my favorite so far. I haven't really done anything to the engine yet other than glow plugs[used ac g60s but should have used bosch] and new hearthrob 4" exhaust with a 2 1/4 mandrel bent crossover. Even with the 3.40 gears it is a workhorse. It pulls 10,000 lbs at 70mph pretty easily. I did put a flexsteel seat in it that is comfy. Kind of a hot rod running empty.
I have over 20 complete engines. !2 of them have serious problems so they are parts engines. I've junked 6 trucks for parts.
I got slowed way down last week by a serious back reinjury. I can only stand to play with my trucks for a hour or so a day. :mad: I start phy. therepy on monday. I can only hope it will help.

You need counseling, soon.
