Thanks Rich. I will have to give this some consideration. I wonder what they would charge to ship the engine to Detroit. $500? I figure with shipping and labor to install it I'm looking at $3000 to get the car on the road. Is it worth the risk. Maybe someone else wants to take this task on. It is my wife's favorite diesel. I'll let you know if I need further help.
