I have a CR to satisfy all my power needs
*cough*BS!*cough*

mine didn't stay stock for long... hehe

besides who wants a stinkin CR when you can have a twin turbo + supercharged P-pumped 24v 2nd gen that would blow the doors off a CR?!

Three grand for a long block? Ouchie. There are a lot of parts missing for an installation there..... the project would still end up being cheaper if you bought a wrecked/undriveableforotherreason diesel truck....

It's a full rebuilt long block though.
Unlike trying to find a truck to yank one from.

That's the thing about diesels though.... 150K miles is just getting broke in..... can also find reman 6bt for a hundred or two more..... and it's an easier install.

I can find the whole truck with around 100K for around 3K or so......

Suppose it just depends on what kind of budget you have for this kind of project.
