We
have had this engine sitting in our "collection" for at
least 33 years. Some time before that one of the timing
chain guides had vibrated long enough to fracture itself;
jamming the chain and gears and locking the engine. A
common problem if not dealt with at least it is easy to
determine why the engine was pulled from service.
I
just yanked the head off yesterday. As we move onward in
our quest to reduce our floorspace needs we will try to
offer these things at "never-before" prices. The BIG
hassle is shipping these things. Shipping is EXPENSIVE
and we can do nothing about that. Packing is expensive
too. Cynthia won't work for scratch anymore; and having
it done professionally is EXPENSIVE+++; and don't have
time to spit; literally. My main job is to get this stuff
sorted and described and listed before out of frustration
it just ends up in the scrap trailer. I suspect most
people reading that will think "He wouldn't do that;
these have value..." Actually after 45 years I have kind
of a love-hate relationship with the work-end of this
place. :-)
This
is sold as-is; where-is. It has no guarantee or warranty
other than it is what I have described and can be
exchanged for another. If you decide you want it shipped;
that is totally your cost to and fro; but I WILL NOT fail
to disclose something I see that should be mentioned. I
have been operating successfully for over four decades
without any of that nonsense. It is available and priced
with or without certain items (your choice). It is priced
as a pick-up item. Please inquire for shipping info.
Think unreasonably expensive and then add 50%. You can
always chose a private shipper/packer if you wish we
could deliver it to.
Includes
block, crankshaft, 4 rods w/pistons, jackshaft, 4 timing
gears, chains, lower tensioner, oil pump. It has to be
under 150 pounds including box and packing. Ability to
sell without timing cover depends on how much of a fight
water pump gives on letting itself be removed. Engine is
nowhere near the shop so we have limited ability to
perform any work.
