New Overflow Valve from Cummins $172????

I told them they might have made a mistake - I'm trying to buy an overflow valve and need to know whats up?

I told them they are usually $30 or so...

They said I need the updated version - I told them they needed updated.

i went to dodge and got it for 35 bucks and it came in a cummins package with two new sealing washers. Just go to dodge and get it or at least make sure the one on ebay has the washers.

You must have got one for a 24 valve, they are different and cheaper.

I got mine in December from Precision Diesel Injection & turbo inc.
Marty Tompkins 888-734-7349 and I think it was under $40. I am sure he sends the correct Bosch valve for the 12V- although I have not tried it yet.
