Broke down in Boise

[Oonrahnjay]

IT'S ALIVE!!! The bus once again has a heartbeat. They will finish putting things back together in the morning and we should be on the road before lunch. ...

... Total bill ended up being 4725. I feel they could have done a little better on the bill, but I am satisfied. ... I would absolutely recommend these guys. Smith power in Boise ID, good shop to go to.  

   Glad you're back on the road again - sorry about the $$$pain.  Thanks for sharing the experience - I've never heard of a bull gear before, so I sure learned something.  Best wishes for smooth sailing for many miles from here.

Yea but $32,000.00 for rebuild on a 8v71 or $55,000.00 for a 8v92 rebuild scares you too.Derrick's engine ECM is showing 1 million 100 thousand miles what is that less than a 1/2 cent a mile ?

Ok, I got to ask where you are getting those prices for reman'd Detroit 2 cycle engines?

That is what they are costing at a Detroit Dealer now 2 here on the board posted what Interstate charged them for a out of frame and my friend paid Valley Power 55 grand for 8v92 all they used was the block on his 8v92.
I could have paid you guys less money for a re-con series 60 engine for less than it cost me in parts only but I wanted all new parts not re-con parts fwiw
