swap 6.2 for 6.5 Chevy diesel?

[ZEEEW]

Hello all



A friend has a 6. 2 diesel that just got a new flywheel and clutch, after which of course the engine blew.

Considering a 6. 5 to replace it, can the new clutch and flywheel off the 6. 2 be used on the 6. 5? Or if the engine comes with a decent flywheel already, will the 6. 5 bolt up to the clutch and bellhousing?



Or does anyone have a link to the Chevy page?



Thanks



Eric

no problem, basically the same engine. Bob

Done a few of these before, and they work great. The mechanical 6. 5 is actually a pretty good engine. It's no Cummins, but its better than a gasser!
