Tow Vehicle Help
 
Need some help on a engine for my tow vehicle.
Current engine has 208,000 miles. It's a 6.0L GMC

What would be a good route to take ??

Anyone have experience with Jasper Engines ??

Not looking to spend a lot of money either....

Thank you.

What's it doing? Burning oil? Down on power?

If you can have the down time I would say the most economical thing to do IMHO would be to pull it and do a rebuild. Valve seals, springs, cam, lifters, hone, rings, bearings, gaskets, machine work, ... Sounds like a lot cheaper than a new engine. Might be a good time then to add a towing cam and converter while it's apart.

I'm not sure what Jasper gets.

I was thinking No More Than $5,000. or is it going to be WAY more than that.
Then, probably should look for something with less miles.

How bout a junkyard motor with say 70-100 thousand miles ????
