I'd have to add another 4 feet to the length of my bus to fit that in... not to mention might be a bit back heavy..

The DD dealer in Cranbrook, BC always has several of them in their yard and in the shop. They service and rebuild them for the coal mines at Sparwood and Elkford. They are BIG.

He is asking a core price that engine even with only 600 hrs every jug will have to be changed and the engine rebuilt (50+grand) that what you guys get when the 50D gear driven alternator fails on yours not pretty huh
