Only if you can pick it up cheap, a good reman should cost a few grand and I doubt they will be giving away installation. I'd say don't invest more than 5K in it, because if the motor is shot, who knows what condition the rest of the drivetrain is in.

Hello and Welcome!

That was great posting in the V10 forum. You will get a lot of help there.

Using the tech forums is always the best way to get information.
