they will more than likely want the motor as well. when my truck got totaled and I pulled the motor they told me another motor had to be put in it. Thankfully I had the stocker still.

Ya but the difference is you wanted your insurance company to total it and give you money. A company repo'ing your **** is taking something from you, and they're not gonna say "we're not gonna repo this unless the motor is in it!"

I'd say they would try and get money from you for damages, parts, and labor.

They will most likely take it anyway, then it gets auctioned off and if what the bank get at auction is less then what you still owe, (cuz there is no motor in it) they will file for a judgment against you for the difference. They will want enough money out of it to satisfy the loan balance remaining at the time of repo.

take the motor out and put a 4.8L in it.... I always wondered what would happen if you rented a new 3/4 ton truck from the local rent shack with a 6.0L, borrowed it a couple days, swapped in your choice of smaller V8 and then keep the 6.0L. Do they ever check things like that? Other than obviously the truck would be underpowered?

^^^ i wonder if any codes would go off if you just swapped it to a 4.8l without a tune.
