Picked up the 8 motor today and come to find out it is ALL new parts. Not one thing is used. I love it at half the cost. Well she is going in as we speak.

All done and everything seems to be ok. only took 4 hours to build up and go back in. Very easy compared to a 3rd gen IMO. Taking it out with a turbo is a real pain!!!
