    Ok thanks. I just realized, they never charged me a core charge when I bought the kit. So I wont take them in.

    All done!! I ran Thursday and yesterday, granted I was lightweight... but, I got 8MPG from Greensboro-philly and back. And still have over half a tank left. Never would've happened before. My IFTA reports the past 2 years are anywhere between 4.9 - 5.47 was my best. Granted I do heavy haul but, it should never be that bad. Pulls great, and im a happy camper.

    Anyone want guess Labor costs rebuilding and paint??????? I took block to get cut/bored at Clarke power, so minus that and the Head(I bought a new one)........ The guy who did it, this is all he does is paint and rebuild 12.7's. He buys Cascadias and puts 12.7's and 14L in them....
