Hello,
my trucks bottom end met its end last week on an off ramp, and I’ve been looking for a new engine. I am between a used questionably running 89 e350 van for $900, and buying a rebuild engine straight to my door for $3750-5k.
I’m leaning towards the rebuild, mainly because the truck spends most of its time on seasonal roads in the middle of nowhere, and one tow would cost more than the price difference. Also not having to put down cardboard for my oil leaks at peoples houses would be awesome lol
Any suggestions on places to get rebuilds from? Gotta get another 300k out of the motor to make it worth going new.
thanks. CL
