Lotsa miles. Maybe interested. Depends  on compression numbers on mine and why you're retiring this. I gained smoke in California, haven't checked it out yet.

your trans would bolt to it.  ECM change and flash needed of course. 

4l whatever trans wouldnt fit without engine movement or case movement/shafts


van motor has correct pump for steering, if it was in service, part out probably break even for 6-800$



no trans is sad for my interest.

4x4 od trans with a married case is probably best for me if I'm changing anything significantly.

which i would not recommend a mated case.

im really curious as the whats making your smoke.  that motor was well rapped by us and def held up great.  i dont recal you doing any worse to it last year. 

got to be a valve or ring?  id be throwing a cam heads pistons and new flash at that thing.  much more life left than my motor id hope

Not sure about more life than yours. How many times north of 250 degrees on each? How many zero oil pressure shutdowns due to noise rather than gauge? I think this one has been raped a fair bit harder even if it was younger to begin with.

Probably will get raced as-is without any diagnostics with The Sickness presenting. MJ next weekend.
