4.2 EFI to Brunswick 6.5

Post by sad001 »

Could someone give me a better idea of prices for a brunswick conversion to 6.5 chev from 4.2efi/gas manual. Something better than between 12k and 20k

July 2006 (issue 94) of 4wd monthly contains a black GU wagon, converted into a twin cab with a 6.5l diesel chevy in it.
It is also fitted with a top mounted screw type blower
Brunswick did the conversion, and it looks like an absolute weapon !!!
Bet it cost a mint though, otherwise everyone would want one.....

because the 6.2/6.5 chev commonly referred to on this board is a diesel, available with or without a turbo. Some people would prefer this for touring over a petrol.
There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots

i was told about 18 & up wards which included the motor & everything thing else included? including the motor having just been re built?!


they also take trade ins & rebuild them

when doing a engine conversion the engine must be made the same yr or newer than the vehicle, so it ur after something a tad cheaper look in to the 6.2 they ended around 97 ish ?
