Let's see those 6.2 Detroits!!!
As some of you know...I'm a recent 6.2 convert!
I love these Detroits!! Post up pics of you Detroit Diesel equipped trucks, especially under the hood. I'd love to see some pic of Turbo conversions as well. Show me what you got!!!! Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Let's see those 6.2 Detroits!!!
Dr Lee on The Diesel Page built a really nice N/A 6.5 (589 block) for his '82 short bed that had about stock 6.5TD HP. He painted it '82 6.2 red to keep the look. The truck was a red original 6.2 C/10.
I'll play. I've had at least one in my driveway for 25 or more years now. No under hood pics,though. First,my '84 I had until I ordered my '92. It had a Banks Sidewinder kit and Gear Vendors behind a TH400: ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Let's see those 6.2 Detroits!!!
Here's my '91 Suburban with 6.2/4L80E. I retired it after it got hit in the front,had a mashed rear 1/4 panel,and I just didn't have the money to fix it:

Re: Let's see those 6.2 Detroits!!!
My latest and current 6.2 is this '85 Jimmy with 700r4. All stock except I took the lift/tires/axles from the Suburban and put them under it. So,now it's got 4.10s and a locker.

Re: Let's see those 6.2 Detroits!!!
Nice
Are any of those your's? That second pic, I'm guessing it's a 6.5 turbo on a 6.2? Thanks! Quote:
Those are all AWESOME rigs that you had (and have)!!! How did you like the Banks set-up?

Re: Let's see those 6.2 Detroits!!!
Yes,I don't think it was worth the expense,though. The N/As run just fine for me and get better mileage.

Re: Let's see those 6.2 Detroits!!!
Great looking diesels in this thread. Here is my 82. The date on the pic is not right. I took this pic about 2 years ago right after I bought the truck.
