Not a good deal for me a DDEC 11 and the add says 0 hours on the low end that part would make me run those engines never need bearings they just don't wear on the low end.
With your Prevost the tag is a major problem installing a 60 series,pre 92 Prevost are a PITA to repower with a 60 series

good luck
