6.5L Diesel
We have twelve working 6.5 L Diesel Powerplants either installed or sold as kits and working on 4 more at this time
Diesel enthusiasts know that diesel engines have a reputation for torque production. TZE owners know that torque, rather than horse power, will help move the motorhome with less effort and at lower RPMs. So the next logical development in the GMC community involves a diesel transplant. And not just any diesel engine will do. The 6.5 L (395 cu. in.) center mount turbo engine Manny is working with is a simply designed workhorse that yields credible power and decent fuel economy while meeting emissions standards in it’s hauling class. The primary reason for using this engine is that it has been around for nearly three decades and has undergone continuous improvement. Initially built by GM, it is now in production by AM General and has been since the mid-1990s.
