Have a friend that needs a 8v92.
Had problems somewhere in Georgia. They had the coach pulled to a dealer. had water in the oil so they pulled the heads.
said both heads and the block was cracked. but did not pull the oil pan.
Did not think the people knew what they were doing so had the coach hauled to Davids coach who looks after huggy.
He pulled the pan and decided that the crank was bad so looking for a engine. It is in a MCI but I don't think it makes much difference because he has all the accessories off of the old engine.

Here comes a reply from out in left field.
There are 2 buses for sale, but they also have a parts vehicle with a NEW 8V92 Silver.

Uncle Ned:
Fellow Southeast Bus Nut Steve Siems had a top quality 8v92 pulled from his Neoplan, and replaced with a DD Series 60. I believe John Silver of Central FL Bus Repair, who did the swap, has it and will sell.

I have one available -
MUI with 9A90 injectors. Reliabilt with a TV8101 turbo.
I removed it from a great running Peterbilt truck. Been stored inside ever since.
He needs to check the arrangement on the back of the engine changing some of the parts on the back for a MCI application can get a little expensive
good luck
