Hey guys,
I'm looking at a complete 7.3 engine to buy to rebuild, it's about 200 miles away, which means so far, only talked to the owner by phone and email pictures of what he has.
I'm looking for the engine serial number, then how to read it to see if it's a turbo block.
Where is the serial number located, and once I get a picture of it.. how do I make it tell me useful information?
The story on the engine is [stories are always true, right?] the engine was taken out of a California truck after CA refused to allow it to pass emissions because it was an "old diesel"...
Supposed to have been a runner, but been setting for more than 5 years in his garage. What is a build core engine worth?
Thanks for your help.
