Not at the moment, my money is being saved for other projects. My 6.5 is in ill health and I don't think I want to put that much money in her to fix it. SO I'm on the lookout for a DMAX/ALLISON package to swap in.

what's wrong with your 6.5:head:

Freeze plugs rusted from the inside, rust on the deck of the block from blown head gasket(pitted down into the surface), and 7 bad pistons from bad injectors(burned down almost to the ring lands). Plus the injection pump was beggining to give trouble again(feels like sand is going through it when I rotate it by hand), the 7 bad injectors, some electrical gremlins causing the glows not to work. Couple that off with a fried 4L80E from my chip I had run when I first bought it, and it seems like a losing proposition to fix the 6.5 when my engine compartment could look like this with 300+HP lurking.
