What is your preferred oil brand and weight for the 6.5? How about filter? Gasket?
Going to be busy again today. Private message me and keep reminding me to get pictures. I only have 3 vehicles here. The 1996 Suburban is in Tennessee right now. I'll try to remember to put this on my "to do" list.
If I do not write it down, I forget it in mili-seconds.

I'll send you a PM and if you get a chance in your busy day to day post it here in this thread.
Thank you!

6 pics in this post from the 1994 K3500. The 1989 C2500 was the exact same More to come from this truck. I didn't know how many pics I could attach per post.
Can somebody message me that info? Could I attach them all at once?

the engine oil cooler lines for the 1994 K3500 6.5 TD. I need a T placed in one of the lines to feed my FS2500 bypass filter. The middle can be 1/4" NPT. The present T I have in another vehicle is 1/2x3/8x1/2 and the 3/8 hole is bushed down to 1/4"m NPT.
Let me know if these measurements sound good to you.
I have written down from the last time I did this to install the T in the shorter of the 2 lines
engine oil cooler T. Short line 16" to center line of T from end of fitting. These would match the measurements to Lubrication Specialist or Leroydiesel.com's kits.
I've been wanting to find time to have inlinetube.com make me some OEM style lines to the T.
Ending up with the fitting to the block that Lubrication Specialist or Leroydiesel.com use
33" to the other end
52 1/4" from end to end
1/4" NPT for T
I have a few more pictures from the 1994 K3500, 1998 K2500 Suburban and the 1995 Tahoe. Pictures of the T's were hard to get.
Sorry for the pictures. I can't see what I'm taking pictures of and can't see the pictures on the camera. Didn't have time to proof them blown up.
