Yeah it may be high, but I've seen the price on these go up in the last couple years. With less people buying new theres more market for our used "Junk"

Even if it does "only" have 85k. Anyone notice it's an industrial 7.3 IDI?


God knows what's that thing hauled or how it's been driven during those 85k miles......

Thats one of the first things I saw. So that means the injection pump is the low rpm type. The oil pan will need to be turned around because the sump is up front on that application. And the dip stick will need to be installed at the rear location. Good luck with that.... Also that water pump has the wrong drive on it so you will need a van or pickup truck water pump. That pump om that engine has a 4 bolt flange on it. Otherwise its an idi engine but way priced to high.. I sure wish some off shore country would strat casting new 6.9 or 7.3 blocks....:sly
