6.2l rebuild to 6.5l

[arveetek]

Hi, I am new to the site. Could someone direct me to the forum that discusses rebuilding the 6.2l to a 6.5l? Specifically, I am planning to upgrade to 6.5 pistons, heads, and intake. I would like to stick with the DB2 injector pump. Any ideas on this? Thank you.

Are you wanting to bore a 6.2L out to 6.5L specs? If so, that is not recommended. I know folks who have done it, but the general consensus is that the 6.5L had more metal cast into the block to allow for the larger bore; attempting to bore a 6.2L to 6.5L diameters may result in ultra-thin cylinder walls.

The best bet is to purchase a 6.5L block/engine and start with that as your build platform.
