FS engine, in few weeks
« on: March 18, 2015, 08:02:48 PM »
I bit the big bullet; bought reman engine today.
Was smoking, but very likely was new turbo fail. No prob aft turbo rebuilt. Month later, smoke.
Will advise of progress. You prob will rebuild it anyway.
Harmonic balancer has less than 1,500 miles.
If you have some interest, let me know.

Is there not a core charge on the reman motor? Swap the new balancer to the new motor.

It is a crate motor from Texas.
I will find out if the harmonic balancer is on the new motor.
