That's what i've heard too. mine was cracked in all but 1 chamber and had 415-425 across the board. While it's rebuildable it's not cheap and usually it's not much more to drop in a 3bt. anyway it's a bj70, cool truck. 10K CAD seems kinda steep when another ~5 will get you a JDM.

Oh yeah.. MOD.. this should be in the intl cruiser tech
