I am looking at a Series 80 with ~250K miles on it. It doesn't have a blown head gasket but, if I go to that much trouble, I'm thinking a fresher engine would be a good idea.
I spoke with Blane's Engine in Dallas, TX and they said they CANNOT get parts to rebuild the engine. I am wondering about a low mileage pull but, LKQ wasn't any help.
I am a newbie and a pretty 'green' so, what am I missing? Is a fresh Toyota motor a reasonable option today? Or, am I looking at a repower with a different motor and transmission when the time comes?
TIA.
