The non turbo 6.5 and 6.2 trucks with the Banks Sidewinder will blow the factory GM turbo trucks off the road from more boost and better design.<br><br>www.bankspower.com<br><br>http://www.bankspower.com/app.cfm?appid=AC02

Re:turning up a 6.2

Isnt there a 3/16&quot; allen head screw under the fuel solenoid cap that you turn to give it more fuel? Or is that just on the 6.5?

Re:turning up a 6.2

first you need to make sure your timing marks are correct and the advance the injector pumpa notch or 2 on the timing marks on the pump. i believe its toward the passenger side you'll have to loosen the three bolts holding the pump on. thats what i used to do to my 6.2's. if you add a turbo and its got a lot of miles get ready for a rebuild because its to hard on the motor unless it starts out with one

Re:turning up a 6.2

You can turn the 1/8&quot; allen screw. About 1/8&quot; to start with. Also advance the timing to the left looking from the front. If you get no smoke or to much adjust the screw a little more or less accordingly. I hope this helps a little.

Re:turning up a 6.2

Where is the screw and which direction do you turn it?
