Title: New truck question
Post by: 6.2detroit on December 24, 2013, 11:48:50 pm

Hey guys i just got my second k10 this weekend and couldnt be happier. Its an 82 k10 6.2l with a th350 behind it. I dont like automatic transmissions so i want to do a sm465 swap. What do i need?  My first k10 had one in it but when i sold it as a roller i let it go with it. :'( also to do the turbo swap from a 6.5 what all parts will i need? Thanks in advance! If anybody has a link to a write up for this that would be great!

You will need a 6.2L flywheel for the motor to convert along with all the other pieces.  Linkage, pedals, rods and the clutch assembly.
