I would say if you got the cash do it now and be done. Doing it later just mean more money and down time. Just my two cent.  |
The bad part comes if you pop the motor. The old one is junk. So, one low mileage junk yard long block for 2 to 3k. It is best to swap out all of your electronics to said motor after it is built. Two turbo rebuilds for good measure just in case metal shrapnel made it to them. CAC cleaning. It will be 7 to 10k more expensive if that happens. Sometimes, that is the game we play and the risks we take.
