A 91 f350 7.3 auto. It has a new ip and starter but needs a radiator. Guy wants 2000 bucks but I'm scared about cavitation. What do you think go for it?

Same as my 88 7.3 had.
That return line from the pump looks a little wonky how it's hooked up to the filter.
But that filter head looks a little older. Could be 6.9.

I'm with IDIoit. As clean as it looks outside, it's probably worth the money. Cheaper is always better though.

The engine pic....looks like a 6.9 filter housing....

why is the IP return line going into the fuel supply line?
seems odd to me...

could be an aftermarket filter head, the 6.9 head i use has a nipple for the fuel return.

I say get it even if it is a 6.9. They run good and have less cavitation issues.

yeah, I mean if the oil looks good, and the coolant looks good go for it. it seems like the $2000 is there even if there are motor issues. that rust free rear quarter looks great!

In CT, CL clowns would be asking 3-4x that price. That's my ideal platform there and it allows you to put in a Champion radiator, change out the hoses, and fill the SCAs properly.
