crank case pressure

[tariqzai]

Like I said my situation is different than what could financially cost to someone else in this case, I have all the expensive stuff you mentioned already bought for 8k plus a 13 peed tranny, two rear ends and everything except sleeper cab, hood, fenders and some other cosmetic stuff. Fixing the headgasket would cost upto 10k, since the wrecked truck and the one with bad head are the same, in fact these are one after other in vin serial number as well, i opt to let this engine run till something happens, worst case be 2k tow bill plus labor to either get the whole engine with everything you mentioned installed from wrecked truck or just take the whole sleeper cab , cosmetic parts and put it on the rolled over truck. I have cut the valves shut for heater lines to the cab to save the heater core in case I decide to swap cab. I will be a happy camper if I can get 125k miles from this engine, it has 625k now, the rolled over has 723. Will keep you posted in either case so you would know how long the engine fought with that basically stuff. As far asyour concerns of this truck being sold to someone I can assure you this is not going to happen, I have two dead soldiers, a 2009 Columbia and a 2007 Volvo sitting in my yard for two years due to EGR and DPF issues and still have enough room for this engine to live in peace there as well.
