    From the few I looked at anywhere from $500 to 3k The new ones had everything ready to go. Turbo and alternator etc. Remans too Used ones, while some were complete, were missing various accessories.

    6CTA8.3 rebuild or surplus

    Govliquation had several new ones and lots of reman ones. Also lots of pulled "as is" ones It was around 30-40 engines I think. This was at the GL OKC main warehouse a few weeks ago. Keep an eye out. There might be more.

    Fuel Pressure Switch and Hard Starting CUCV

    It will take you longer to setup the welder (if it's possible to weld) than to just plug it forever as already mentioned.

    Blackout Lights

    When I replaced mine I cut the ends with no worries. I used dielectric grease and shrink sleeve for protection Never gave it a second thought.

    M923a2 Brake light problem

    When/if your checking connections, apply a dab of dielectric grease while you have the connection apart. Really helps to prevent other problems down the road.

    The push button ones are prone to causing a fire/meltdown. The lever model is tried and true and will be trouble free. It's also a LOT cheaper!!
