the only thing GM could have done to make the 6.2 better was add a chain so you could use it as a boat anchor ha!

Its a wonderful sound when it finally catches and stays going! - A diesel that actually sounds like a diesel. VG.

@cumminsISB59 GM didn't make the 6.2, Detroit did.

just finished getting one of these motors running after sitting for 10 years... i personally do not like these motors at all a pain in the ass and a bad design in my opinion... but if it is something that someone likes then that is there choice and more power to them

@Catalina65389 really? but you talk all this shit behind your screen now didn't you? WOW some people are over the top RETARDED!!! but hey feel free to stop by my house any time you want douche. lets see if you got the balls.

@blownutsmyass asshole, somethimes you think you might want to keep your opinion to yourself. fuckers talk big behind a keyboard, tough guys.

@CSXtrackworker well i don't totally dislike them they just don't take the hard work. heck i drove one for 5 years back and forth to work but when it came to pulling anything they would get hot and crack a head or just come apart. once i went on my own i blew up 8 or 9 6.2 and 6.5s trying to pull what my cummins has done day in and day out for 10 years and allmost 400,000 miles. but i would buy a 6.2 again just as a drive around truck.

@blownutsmyass It may not be fast pulling up hill's, but it get's the job done. But, you have every right to dislike these engine's.

[CSXtrackworker]

@blownutsmyass Oh no, I wasn't being a dick to ya. I personally like the 6.5 TD. They really are a good engine, but get a bad rap because of the PMD and the harmonic balancer, which both are an easy fix. They may no tmake as much power as these new diesel's, but it will do the job. I usually just ask people why they dislike them. Just want to get their opinion on them. heck, I know a guy who pulls 16,000 lbs total with his 6.5 dualie which is a gooseneck and a 3rd gen cummins pulling truck.

[blownutsmyass]

@CSXtrackworker well truthfully because they can't handle any kind of hard work for very long. heck a small block gas burner would out last it pulling hard. the dang things don't like to start in the bitter cold. the best way to help with that was military glow plugs and put the on a manual button. but that only helps so much. but as a car engine they did ok. the 6.2 just has many limitations. really i just said that because the guy it was ment for is a dumbass. nothing on you man.
