@carstartsounds: 1998 Chevrolet K1500 6.5 Turbo Diesel –18°C Engine: 6.5L Turbocharged V8 Diesel Power: 190 HP @ 3,400 RPM Torque: 522 Nm @ 1,800 RPM Redline: 3,400 RPM Fuel System: Electronic Indirect Injection with Stanadyne DS4 Rotary Pump Transmission: 4 Speed Automatic Drivetrain: Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Weight: 2,250 kg 0–100 km/h: 15.0 sec Top Speed: 160 km/h ——— About the vehicle: The 6.5L turbo-diesel belongs to GM’s pre-Duramax era and uses an old-school indirect-injection design rather than modern common-rail technology. Its electronically controlled Stanadyne DS4 rotary injection pump represented a major step away from the fully mechanical diesels that came before it, while the K1500 version produced 190 HP and 522 Nm of torque. This particular truck was started in Quebec at –18°C, with a wind-chill reading around –28°C, after being left unplugged. The owner also suspected one or two weak glow plugs, making the huge cloud of white diesel smoke and rough initial combustion even more dramatic as the 6.5 finally comes to life. ——— Which truck should be featured next?

That’s a K2500 with a Detroit 6.5. Used to own one straight piped from the header. Sounds exactly like that
