3825 for a turbo and 3500 for a dozer leaves about $500,000 of headroom before you hit the cost of a new dozer. So if Matt’s salvaged machine pushes dirt for a couple years, he’s coming out way ahead!

@@cujoedaman so if Area Diesel didn't have the foresight to hang on to a heap of old parts with the idea of "we may need this one day" then I dare say the outcome for Matt's turbo wouldn't have been so positive.

[@landrelarose745]

Matt is the best of what he does. Before he started that KZbin channel, he was a heavy equipment operator for a construction company. What equipment he was using was an excavator. I was watching him for a few years. One of the first projects he was working on was that place he was converting into an apartment. He eventually sold it because it had issues. He devoted the time he had on buying construction equipment and getting the engines started in them. Every time he bought more equipment, all those engines in them started. What was the first project he did when I started watching those videos he posted? If was possibly the Autocar heavy-duty truck. He said in that video that his grandfather drove one of them. That's the reason why he bought that truck. So he bought that D8 CAT, and that turbocharger was in need of newer parts. The man at the start of this video had his hand on the box, which was when I stopped the video. It's time to continue watching it.
