Whether the turbo you have would work or not is well beyond me. I simply found a turbo off a similar sized engine, but I do know there's a lot more to turbos than meets the eye. Yes, the 6.2L is a low rpm engine, but it is still a high CFM engine. It pulls a ton of air even at idle. So I can't really say.

The best advice I can give is join www.thedieselpage.com and study other turbo sites and see what info you can come up with.
