WV here PA .....go a head...over.
Everyone down here is working to much I guess, I know I am.
Reviva is giving me a buy out of 3800 for the engine and 1200 for the core.
So I am now the proud owner of an ATS turbo system, injection pump, injectors, fuel lines, water pump, rocker covers, intake manifold, oil pan, fuel filter bracket and header plus two exhaust manifolds one of which is cracked for only 2800 dollars. What a deal.
Now if I just had time to call around and get another long block lined up and install it.

We are working seven days a week right now, I think this week I will have close to 80 hours. I am way over 50 right now and still have two days to go this pay period.

Posting here has been so lite I have not been checking it every day....couple of days.
27..28..29..30..31..1 make that every 6 days.

Input...it's raining now
we had 7 inches of snow the night of the 24th
power was out all over the place with all the downed trees
places in Fairmont did not have power for 6 days
Morgantown had no power at all the 25th

Other than that it has been kinda boring around here.

Umm PA ya forgot to say Over....over

PA this is WV calling....

Do you see any work type F350 4x4 diesels for sale up there?
I was considering a 96 or 97 Stroker 4x4 5 speed if I could find one with about 150,000 or less on it for a good price.
Even thought about a crew cab.
Only found 2 down here.
One had 235,000 miles for 12,000 dollars, the other had 325,000 for 6,000 dollars.

Back at ya Pa ...this is WV
Looking for the 9 to 10 range hopefully

I have about decieded I would be better off with the one I have, if I can find a motor.
Looking real hard at two different engines.
At least with the truck I have now, I know what has been rebuilt and what needs rebuilt.
If I get another one, who knows what it will need in 5000 miles.
And a lot of the work already done to mine would be wasted unless I swapped it all over to the new one, that would be kinda like work.

Oh well.

WV out PA ....over

I just bought a salvage yard 6.9 to put back in my truck this evening.
So I guess I don't need a truck now.
Should be back on the road in week or so.

WV out Pa ..... over
