Any 6.5L GM diesel with electronic controled fuel injectior pump is a ticking time bomb.
So get a 93 or earlier with the mechanical pump or get a newer one and convert it to a mechanical pump.
I really like my old 6.5L, but I hate that 1993 and up electronic injector pump with a passion.
Oh and the factory GMx serries turbos are garbage (turbo is ok, just not sized correctly for that engine).
