Engine replacement thoughts
I bought my truck new in 06, I have 415,000 miles on it and would like to have opinions and thoughts
On replacing the engine..I have changed the oil every 10,000 miles using Amzoil.
the truck is in great shape.
What I want to know is should I have the engine rebuilt and who does that in Oregon?
Or put in a rebuilt engine and who sells them ?
How long will the Duramax last?

751,837 mile Duramax... It got a new water pump at 711,000 miles.
I photographed this truck a few years ago at our local Chevy dealership... Aside from peripherals and gaskets, I don't think an individual (other than an RV hauler) could wear one out. This is based on what I've seen for cylinder wear in high mile Duramax engines (induction hardened cylinder walls).
But, for those who insist... contact Rob at www.demtengines.com for Duramax engine rebuilds. I visited his shop last year. Well equipped, and he even had spare parts for sale... Need an aluminum head? He's got them.
