I know a guy a couple of blocks from me who has a 2002 6.0L Heavy Duty that was hit in the DS rear corner while parked on the street, which he now needs to unload. Only cosmetic damage, but considerable damage to the sheetmetal. (it's a doublecab).
The drivetrain only has 50k on it and still drives great. What is the possiblity of transplanting this into our trucks? I doubt that I would do it as I just got done with the L31 5.7L conversion, but I am just throwing it out there out of curiosity.....
