Will a factory turbocharged 6.5 litre chev deisel fit into a LWB GQ without a bodylift. I have a 6inch suspension lift.The gq ia a automatic if that makes any diference
Also what do people think of the turbo motor compaired to the non turbo motor.

Thanks in advance

I was told the turbo wouldnt fit when I looked into it, then I was told later it would. who fuckin knows...
But then I looked into it again to fit a GU 2.8 for replacement and the conversion drive in drive out was $23k by the dude out warrigul, so I laughed at him and left.
Mine was auto too, and was told the auto would need 'tweaking' and a rebuild would be advisable...

I put a 6.5 turbo in my GQ, 2"body lift. There is not much room left, I fitted the turbo up on the left and run the exhaust pipe forward and then down and back, had to cut a chunk from the inner guard, all worked out but a lot of work.
