Yep, checked the oil.....all ok there and she's still running great. Honestly, if I hadn't installed a coolant reservoir I wouldn't even suspect anything.
My brother in law LOVES the 6bt, but I'm afraid it might be a dog compared to the 8.2. It does produce the same torque but short on hp. It should fit and I was planning on changing the final gear ratio in the diff anyway.
I'm just trying to put out feelers, to be honest I'd rather just fix the engine I have. It would be a lot cheaper and I wouldn't have to re-engineer the whole drivetrain.
