I just bought the first piece of my eaton swap. Got my blower for $100 ...owner didn't care for it after going whipple so it's mine.

Great price!

Does it have anything on it (pulley, plenum, throttle cable bracket, etc.)?

What size, is it an OEM (3.6")? In any case, that's a great price, especially with a pulley.

So, the journey begins! Have fun getting your parts rounded up; after all was said and done, I enjoyed that part of my Eaton swap almost as much as getting it installed.

Stock pulley. Blower has 26,327k on it. I couldn't beat the price. My journey starts now.

I would send it out and get it rebuilt! Just to be on the safe side. It isn't expensive to do.

Rex didn't you have some type of issue with the first blower you had?

Enjoy your build! Can't wait to see the end result! :burn:

Yup, ended up locking up the blower and trashing the whole thing. It was making noise from day 1, I shoulda dealt with it sooner, but live and learn...:( Ended up replacing it with a rebuilt core unit from Stiegmeier.

Stiegy will do a Stage 1 rebuild that will pick up around 10 hp over a stock Eaton. Stage 1 = Blueprinted, Cleaned, Reassembled, Bolt-On Ready for $295. If any replacment parts are required, it'll be a little more.

Not sure about Posi's services, maybe you can post that up, Jake.

100 bucks? Wow! Any suggestions on how to find one for a low price like that? Or was it just pure luck? I don't even have a marauder yet but for 100 bucks you Cant go wrong!

Keep looking. I found one with less than 5,000 miles for $200. And he was only an hour away.
