I heard quebec drag racers are now using that engine because unit pumps were limited in flow.

That’s a million dollar question. There isn’t a ton of labor swapping from ISX to Cat in a Paccar truck. The cost is in odd parts like wiring harness, fan/hub and if the donor engine came out of like a Volvo the rear adapter will have to be changed. The engine price can be from $3000 to $30,000.
When I did mine it would have cost someone way more because other than a glider there wasn’t a Cat option in 2013. So the motor mounts are glider specific along with the firewall to engine harness. Mounts from KW were $700 and harness is like $2500. Now for an older truck the harness could be $900 and mounts are readily available. I had mounts made for $100 and we already had a harness off a Pete glider so I just had to repin it for KW.
The easiest way is to buy a wrecked donor truck and you have it done cheap in a couple days. There are a couple trucks around here that have had the engine swapped 2-3 times.

Likely more because of useable tuning, the engines using the CT15/maxxforce head aren’t using much of the other factory parts.

Im not sure. Hes probly got 20k or so into this. Only because the engine was a core shortblock when started. So it got a whole platinum kit, plus turbo, then put a serpentine drive on it ect ect. Labor wise, I built the engine before I left the company, I've kept in touch with the other mechanic finishing the job. He picks away at it in between doing all other things keeping 75 units goin.

There are pictures posted a few pages back of two engines running CR heads, one with a CT gear case and one with a conventional gear case
