I have future plans for a s60 or 9. I am on my second 10 bolt under 8K mi. Luckily they are cheap around here.
Thanks..I think the 5.9L would fit too, do it!. Look up DMC, Diesel Monte Carlo on 'tube.
I wouldn't be pissed the way you car is turning out. saw your thread...very clean work.

Just read through the whole thread, love this build. Glad you kept the LT1 style front end. I'd even say leave the hood black, or paint it flat black. So any info on the winter engine build you talked about? Still staying 6.5L or ?

Winter engine build is on back burner, but yes I am staying with the 6.5L Diesel. Right now decided to stand the rad up and forward, then convert to a front mount VGT turbocharger, no IC, using WMI. That and a gear change is all that will get done.
I may also install my perf cam (yes they do make them for Diesels) and ARP head studs to run a few more psi. really wanna see how far I can push a stock longblock though. we'll see.

Cody, that is one cool set-up - very impressive. With a few tweaks you should have more than enough HP & torque.
I sent a link to this thread to my son. I'm sure he'll be just as impressed. He drives his modified Dodge Ram Cummins turbo-diesel in truck pulls. His diesel has been dynoed at almost 700HP & over 1000 ftlb of torque.
