1994 F-250 7.3 TURBO IDI HELP!!

Hey guys, I have a 1994 F-250 with the 7.3 TURBO IDI and after well over 300k on her the engine had an internal failure that introduced coolant into the oil system. I need a good low mileage engine to replace it.

I live in OHIO so something a state or so away is not a deal breaker.....HELP!!!

What kind of "internal failure"?
