I have a 1995 6.5 I'm going to convert into a 1986 suburban is there one pump thats better than the other and same goes for the wastegate valve?I want to get a maximun amount of performance but still get good fuel milage. the motor has marine injecters in now so hopefully I'm off to a good start. Any information will be very appriciated.This site is awesome with an unbelivable amount of info.

A marine DB2 pump might be the best choice that match your marine injectors, but the mechanical DB2-4911 is the standard for the 1992-93 model year 6.5L turbodiesel.

The factory 6.5 turbo system won't be a good fit for your model year vehicle. It'll interfere with the A/C components on the firewall and the turbo downpipe won't work without mods.
