Go on!!!
Plenty help finding an engine over here and getting it sent out. Could probably turn up a 101 for the job too...
In Australia an Isuzu 6BD1T or 6BG1T might be similar money.
The layout on the Isuzus is opposite (intake and exhaust on other sides) which may or may not solve some packagin problems. The Isuzus are also a dry sleeved engine. Rebuilds are quick and very cheap if they need it.
These 6bd1t and 6bg1t engines are like rocking horse poo here :( I know ive been searching for months to repower my FSR , Rebuilt the 6bd1 cheap as i paid a mechanic for a in chassis rebuild new liners pistons ect inc labour $4500.00:DQuote:

The pump that's spat the dummy is a 6BD1. Oil pressure and water temp cut-outs failed. It still runs but sounds like hammers inside a tumble-drier.Quote:

Cylinder liners aftermarket are $80 each. Pistons about $500 for a set. But genuine cylinder kits are about $500 a piece and well worth it if you drive a vehicle yourself. They are matched set in four different grades to suit different tolerance bores.
Big difference in blowby and NVH when you get the factory stuff right.
Sooo, u still thinking of selling yours.....? You're in the right place to source another Cummins and ZF..... :D:wasntme:Quote:
