Subject:      Question to those who've done the Tiico conversion
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

Well Volks, my 90GL's heads are shot and the block under the head gasket has a fair amount of corrosion as well, so short of JBWelding the damage or getting a new/reman waterboxer, a Tiico conversion may loom large in my van's future.

For those of you who have gone the Tiico route, what did you do with the old waterboxer... sell it to defray the cost of the Tiico, or just junk it? Who would buy an old waterboxer?

Also, how much of a PITA is it to do the Tiico installation yourself?
