Well we put about 5k miles on this used 8.3 it was using some oil and had some blowby so out it came.
Ordered a complete overhaul kit with pistons, liners, bearings etc. Sent the rad in for a recore, injector pump sent in for a possible rebuild and found a new turbo. The head is also in for a cleaning and inspection. Should be back together in a week or so. Total cost somewhere around 6k. No bad!! Cant wait!!
