Peninsular 6.5 turbo diesel
We got er about done. We stuck a brand new 6.5 in an old '93 GMC crew cab. The engine sounds very nice. Its first scheduled pull is the end of the month.

Curious. Why not a rebuilt Cummins/Allison?
I actually have an old Cummins with less than 100k miles on it that I could have used but I find those engines to be just too noisy. Using a newer Cummins or Duramax would have been more work than what I was willing to put into the truck. I believe this new GM 6.5 block along with the Peninsular internals will provide many years of trouble free driving.
