LOL I'm quite happy not worrying too much about the HP. The truck and I just don't have the souls of a hot-rod I'm afraid.

Thanks for the tip. That expands my options a bit....

Y'all are right about freight being an issue. But, I'm banking on a quality rebuild shipped on a container being cheaper (and less of a hassle) overall. Maybe... Hopefully.
