You can have it shipped in and basically undress the whole thing to make sure you don't have the same problems your dealing with now. If you do find a problem just fix it outside the truck on Vander Haags dime. That is if Vander Haags doesn't pitch a fit or just refuses to stand behind they're warranty... I would also do front gear case gaskets and rear flywheel housing gasket while its out of the truck. They are quite costly and time consuming to do in the truck.

Then you can build your other block another day and sell it or just sell it for core.

If you do buy that used engine your absolutely going to NEED your ECM REFLASHED to the new CPL #. Get ahold of Unilevers or Mommaburt on here. And maybe get rid of your soot monster(egr) at the same time.

It looks like either way you go, used or rebuild yours, your going deeper in void. That's a tough call which way to go.

Its very tempting to think about, for 10k more or less its not a bad deal to consider. i saw on those truck stop magazines that there a whole lot of companies that sell these reman engines n for cheap... low miles and all. 6 month guarantee or more depending if you want to fork over a extra grand or 2

the idea of having two engine, one being rebuilt slowly and another being used. i think that would be optimal lol. you dont have to wait as long or waste time.
