    Hey fellas,

    I recently bought a Mack Vision and its got about 600k on the rebuild and been very well cared for. I do anticipate needing a rebuild in the near future and I was wondering if anyone around the forums know of people who could do it.

    I spoke with Mack about their rebuild program and they quoted me 34K with a three year warranty and that's where I am at so far.

    i seem to remember the inframe on mine being somewhere more around 20k new heads pistions liners injectors counter bores cut and re shimmed and a few other misc items.

    sounds more like what they quoted you for was a re-mack crate engine. i seem to remember being quoted somewhere around 18- ish for a re-mack engine if you did new injectors and turbo at the same time. you got i think a 3 year unlimited millage warranty then you would also have labor of removing and installing the engine and swapping over all the accessory's ect. 34k still sounds a little high but you do tend to run into quite a few while your there items on a job like that.

    i think i would ask for a itemized quote on that and see what exactly they are quoting you on before doing anything.

    Sounds good to me, imma get it itemized. I wish the weren’t so secretive about the price of their rebuild kits.

    If you want to know the price of the kits call the parts department rather than service

    Talk to the guys at Rochester diesel and Antrim. Both very knowledgeable about Mack and could Give you a rough estimate. 34k seems on the extreme high end.

    If you do have mack do it they're gonna sneak in a low nox file if its not already in it.

    While your at it replace the restrictive stock turbo with a S467 or s475 (171702) and larger injectors if you wanna wake up the puppy.
