Here is why;
Warranty is 3 years unlimited millege.
In the event of an engine failure, they pay a mechanic of your choice to put another engine in your vehicle. Other engine supplyers you have to pay for the mechanics labor and shipping back and forth on the engine and core.
Take the ATK online tour on why their engines last. You can also get an online quote for your engine.
Good luck!
Anyone overcome this obstacle? The shorty' don't work. Anyone in South Florida that can make something happen?
the truck is a lifted '97 v6 automatic 4x4...
( with no consideration for how clean it ran.)
OK. I looked around for a good 2.9 in the salvage yards. They were all in worse shape than my engine.
Fair enough- I checked for rebuilt engines. The cost is prohibitive.
While searching the net I found a site that described a swap to a 4.0. It seems the wiring is not difficult to accomplish. Of course one has to use the computer to match the engine. There are several available locally, the price is right, and the ones I checked were in good condition.
There was some dispute as to weather the original transmission could be used. Are There any other problems I should know about?
Anyone know about this swap? Is it as straight forward as it sounds? .... And why is a 3.0 not an equally good option?
I really need help on this. Thanks in advance for your input.
