Bid Overview
attached is middle bid we received from diesel specialists for 2 rebuilt engines in the amount of 76,060.28
this is the same company we purchased rebuilt barge engines from approximately 5 years ago
the two other bids we received were:
a) 66,600 from diesel pro - bosco did not like this company as they are using inferior parts from china and
south america
in addition they would take 3 weeks to rebuild engine whereby diesel specialists will have ready in 5 business
days
b) 90,150 from stewart and stevensons - bid was comparable to diesel specialists yet not work paying 18.5%
more in cost
breakdown of 76,060 is asfollows:
remanufactured engines (2) 51,000
core engines (2) 24,000 **
other parts (coolant / drain kit / filters) 1,060
total gross cost 76,060 ***
** when our core engines are returned will receive credit up to 12,000
in conversation with Mark (salesman)he said we could conservatively estimate 80% return or 19,200
*** i am reluctant to negotiate this price as i am concerned that whatever we save diesel specialists will look to
recoup that amount when they receive back core engines
Overall Cost Summary
Diesel Specialists 76,060
Projected Core Credit estimate —> (19,200)
Trucking / Shipping - Tropical Roundtrip 10,000
Johnny Weekes - Deliver & Return 20' container 780
Gene Install of Engines 8,000
Crane rental - additional help gene may need estimate-> 2,000
Bosco oversight if needed estimate —> 2,360

Good morning. Please find the pro forma invoice for the proposed order as promised. We'll need a few days
to swap injectors to N70 and set the engines again. We'll also need to wait on the air box drain kits to come
in so this should all be wrapped up in the 4-5 business days quoted. Bank information for wire transfer has
also been attached. Please reference your quote number "AQT35742" on the payment if made. If anything
changes regarding the transport of this order, we can always go back and change the quotation accordingly.
Many thanks again for your patience and we look forward to doing continued business with you in the very
near future.
Best regards,

Tropical shipping said their carrier will bring both engines to Florida for $1050.
I'll get her to put that in writing on Monday.

Just got the last freight rate back. I have a few options so here is what we can offer:
1. Dedicated flatbed straight to Port of Palm Beach ($2,970.00). Cargo will be unloaded at port and you
may arrange transportation to St. Thomas.
2. FCL (Full container load) ocean freight with full transit to port in St. Thomas ($6,775.00). 14 day
transit from weekly sailing and no crating required.
3. LCL (Less than container load) ocean freight with full transit to port in St. Thomas ($3081.25). 14 day
transit from weekly sailing date. This will require the engines to be crated (additional $1,100.00 each) to
ensure the cargo is not damaged in transit as it would be traveling with other undisclosed cargo.
Please keep in mind that when the cores are ready to come back this will be a completely separate
transaction if we would be charging you for that. You may also elect to have the cores sent back from Port
of Palm Beach out of pocket when the time comes. Upon first glance, looks like dedicated flatbed would be
the most economical way of getting these engines transported if you have someone lined up at port to take
it the rest of the way. I know you are doing similar work on your end regarding transit so I would be
interested to see what comes back on that also.
Once we have established the outbound freight, I will be able to place a grand total on the quotation so you
may send payment and we can get things moving swiftly. Many thanks again and please feel free to call me
if you would like to discuss further.

Good morning and thank you for your patience. The quotation you requested is attached for your review.
All engines are guaranteed to meet manufacturer's performance specifications and come with a one year
warranty against defects in the quality of materials and workmanship. I have provided a copy of this
warranty as well as a summary of our standard engine remanufacturing procedures for your review. Please
also note:
I. We still build the 12V71 a great deal and currently have three units in stock as discussed on
Friday.
2. Also included in your quotation are core charges refundable upon receipt and inspection your
existing engine core. Your cores must meet Detroit Diesel factory core return standards to be
eligible for a full credit. This price does not include the freight charges for the core to be returned to
the factory for evaluation.
3. Regarding our discussions about minimizing oil leaks in the future, our Service Manager has
recommended dong some basic improvements that may improve oil leaks. These include go back
and use a Hi-Temp Loctite product on certain bolt flange areas, air box covers and most other areas
that seal. The additional use of copper washers is also essential in most of these areas where the
bolts go through housings that allow oil to make contact with the bolt threads.
4. To further maintain the cleanliness of your engine room area, we have included air box drain
kits for this model of engine in your quotation. These kits (1 per engine) are installed to the air box
drain outlets to collect oil and sludge into the canister, which can be easily maintained. Please see
attached installation instructions for further information. Please also note that these kits will ship
unassembled to the engine.
5. Pricing does not include outbound freight/crating if applicable. Should you want us to provide a
quotation on this as well, please provide a suggested port of delivery and I will promptly reply back
with this information.
6. Diesel Specialists requires a 100% payment for engines in stocking condition.
Please also keep in mind that during the dyno test stage the engine is not only tested for performance but to
reseal any areas/gaskets that leak water or oil. This also includes any type of seals as well. The 2-stroke
engine is a very rugged and versatile engine that can withstand the harshest work conditions. It is also an
engine that when preventative maintenances practices are put in place will provide years of service.
Many thanks again and please reply if we may be of further assistance.

Mark Duplessis
