I have a 1985 E350 4x4, c6 trans with gearvendor. It has a 6.9 idi that started smoking on me and needs some head or piston work. I did injectors and ip but didn't fix problem. Regardless of the problem now I have to pull or drop engine. I have a 7.3 for parts and some other goodies to make repairs to engine.
I have been trying to do a 4bt swap project but can't seem to save enough money. I recently moved and do not have the space to undertake any projects. I need to make a decision here. I can fix whats there, sell the whole deal, or 4bt swap.
I am reaching out to see:
1. if anyone has experience with 4bt swaps around my way and can share wisdom.
2. If anyone has garage space to rent for repairs, or a mechanic to perform repairs
No diesel shops around my way will work on it. I'm between a rock, a hard place, and a sitting truck.
Thanks
