New AM General - GEP Optimizer ™ 6.5L Diesel Engine - Center Mount Turbo Van & H1 Hummer

This is the latest version of the 6.5L engine still produced new today. These are build-to-order engines in that your engine is run down the assembly line after order. Unfortunately, they are not built ahead of time and stored. Standard lead time to delivery is approximately 6-weeks, sometimes less depending on assembly plant's load.

This engine directly replaces engines in 1996 - 2002 Savanna G2500/3500 6.5L Turbo Diesel center mount turbo applications, such as those found in full vans, cab and chassis for box vans and bus configurations.

This engine also directly replaces engines in 1996 and up H1 Hummer 6.5L Turbo Diesel. This offering applies to the H1 Hummer Civilian application (non-military).

  • Filled with 15w40 Break-In Oil.

This is only available to customers who purchase a Longblock here. Approximately $95 shipped.

Warranty

These new long blocks carry no warranty. The manufacturer provides no warranty on these engines. Unique Diesel provides no warranty on these engines. Warranty coverage is not an option on these engines and is a term of the manufacturer. We are being up-front about the limitation which is more than can be said for other potential sources.

Engine Preparation Options

If unit is being shipped via Air Freight (typically international) the engine must be free of oil, new engines come with break-in oil in the pan, so engine must be un-crated and drained of oil and a new filter installed (that is dry). This requires being sent to Unique Diesel for processing making it not possible to drop-ship from factory, this is part of the cost associated with this option.

Addition of timing tab for mechanical engines. The factory cannot modify this assembly as it's intended for electronic engines. We can optionally add the mechanical timing tab to the front of the engine's timing cover with special tooling and have it match TDC for timing with timing lights, We do this and add the plug in the timing cover to delete the crank sensor opening. This makes the engine have to come to us instead of being able to drop-ship. This is part of the expenses figured into the cost of the option.
