if youll buy a p pump or a ve pump motor its not a big deal to do. the motor mounts are in the same place as needed for the diesel engine to drop in. the swap takes bout 100 to 125 hours if its a non electronics motor if it is electonics motors your looking at 150 hours plus.if the trucks in great shape i would do it but if the trucks rough just sell it. depending on the motor and condition look to pay between 2000 and 7000 just for the motor.
