SE MN | I pretty sure there was a 5020 for sale on here not long ago with a 619 in it. I don't think there is much difference on the outside of the block for mounting the engines from the 531 to the 619 to the 10.1L, but I could be wrong.
I agree with WITitan...spend the money on the 6030 or find a good 619 for the 5020. If you have a parted out 6030, I think your engine would be worth the most to a 6030 owner looking for one. You can pick your 4wd model from the 8630, 40 50 or 8760/8770 with the newer 10.1l. Probably not a lot of the original 8630 engines still around in running condition I would guess because a lot were updated to newer engines when they went down. Some older self propelled choppers also had the 531 or 619 engines, like a 5400 or 5460.
Good luck and keep us posted on the project if you go ahead with it. | |
