If you spent the time to learn, put a shingle out as a diesel mechanic, were honest and timely, and relocated to the coast you would have all the work you wanted. Especially if you familiarized yourself with the old Detroits. My go-to guy is working for only a few clients as he wants to retire, but their isn't any body else to do the work and he doesn't want to leave us high and dry.

Small boat gas engines have someone at every corner to work on them....diesels, not so much. For a rebuild, your looking at 3k a hole...DD 6v92 = 18k
