$12000 for new diesel engine?

Is the man who quoted you this price holding a large jar of Vaseline? Was that price outright or exchange?

Did it in my 1987 F350 Dualie cost me 6750.00 total.

But I am sure if your going the Dealer Route you'll get bent over big time.

That sounds incredibly high to me unless you are getting a long block & everything else

i.e. you burned up the old one & need "everything"!!

Actually, its common for diesels to be offered complete, with fuel system and all. PowerBilt and PROmaster offer them for reasonable money.

even if youre talking canadian dollars that number just is not realistic. i could replace my entire 7.3PSD for around $5,000....a little more if i wanted to let someone else do the r&r.

im waiting to see how much for a new crate diesel that will be coming in the liberty. im already planning on a diesel swap into my unlimited rubi that ill be ordering. to bad i cant order it with no engine like the corvette (was an option though i dont remember what year, to order a corvette with no engine). ive grown to believe that an oil burner is the only way to go anymore.

Ol' Bill Hughes in ramj+w would beg to differ. :-)

But if you go the doit yourself route the dealer will bend you over to fix the amateur mistakes.
