Where do you live? I actually have a complete wet kit that I would part with. The series 60 detroit is one of the best all around engines out there, and 400k is nothing for miles. A jake is not a big deal unless you are in the mountains a lot. You will just wear out your brakes a bit faster, but I doubt you will ever get enough miles on it for that to be a concern. Manifolds are easily available either new or used. For a couple hundred in difference I would go new, you never know what you get with used. I would check with the salvage yards on the slider too, lots of those around and probly won't cost much to trade. Make sure you take it to a trusted machanic before you buy. You never know what kind of problems might be lurking underneath with a truck that old. If the suspension or steering are loose you can get into a lot of money. Brakes will need to be checked too, about 400k is where you could be looking at drums and everything, but you can do the whole tractor for not that much and then you would probly be good as long as you own it if you don't cook them or have an axle seal go out. A volvo is one of the best so I wouldn't be a bit afraid of one.
