Do a bottle brush hone job and fresh rings....New head gaskets and bolts and a fresh set of Squirts .

All the diesel shops in Gallatin Valley that rebuilds motors recently went out of business or they don’t want to touch a 6.2 or 6.5. Also the cost to rebuild an old 6.2 is close to about the same as a good newer 6.5 block.

Customer decided to get a 6.5 optimizer reman. Same as what I have. Cost wise and longevity wise it just makes sense.

I found a donor truck at the junkyard with all the serpentine and turbo parts needed. Parting it out right now for the customer. He is going to have a badass Squarebody!
