278 Engine
Does anyone know of a pending recall of the 2014 V8 engine, or other class action type law suit?
I ended up replacing my engine when the cylinder heads failed. got jerked around by the dealer, there is a story here if people are interested.
I have the engine up for sale and it turns out that the person who wants to buy it is the dealer who jerked me around last year.
anyone have any thoughts or input on if I should sell it to them?
What could i be giving up if I do sell it to them?
Thanks

Cylinder scoring/piston scuffing and valve guides have been written about multiple times on this site. Try the search button. @arsupisemnet might have some insight.

How many miles do you have on yours? Dealer probably looking for swap alternative for other customer. Check with eBay prices - if about the same - get cash and move on.
