Scored a new never used solidoodle 2 pro for $200 bucks. I have a solidoodle 3 that I have been really happy with after doing a few mods. I think I'm going to only run PLA through the 2, as my 3 is setup and dialed in for abs quite well. Can I use the same PC running repetier on a 2nd printer? Not sure if it allows me to save multiple profiles?
You can have multiple profiles in repeiter
+1 I have mine set up for a sd3 and a prusa set up a new printer profile.

yes, you can have multiple profiles in RH, and you can open multiple instances of it at the same time as well - I have had 4 different printers running at the same time before.
The only time you may run into an issue is if you have 2 printers with identical controller boards and firmware plugged into the same USB header on the PC. The PC will get confused as to which one is which.
This can be solved easily, however, by plugging one into a different USB header - like one in back and one in front if you have front ports.
Another alternative would be to use a powered USB hub
I, personally, would also recommend going into Device Manager and setting the COM ports to something higher than the default designation for each printer connected - this prevents other devices from "stealing" the COM port.
As an example, I have my #1 SD4 set as COM 13, #2 is COM 15, and so on
wish I could find a deal on an SD3 to make duel extruder out of
Thanks guys! 
Pics to come soon. SD3 has served me well. Hopefully the SD2 does also.
Also found out, it's the base, not the pro. No heated bed.
seems like you should be able to add a heat bed . may have to tweak the firmware.
