StewartG Posted March 9, 2003 Share Posted March 9, 2003 I've acquired another engine to replace the one that injested it's carb trumpet nuts, so are the remains of any use to someone? The head is very poorly with mangled combustion chambers on 1 and 2. The piston tops of those cylinders are marked but not too badly. The bottom end is probably ok as the oil pressure was good. The oil pump, water pump, flywheel, clutch, cams and pulleys and everything else should be good. E-mail me if any of this is needed. Prices will be cheap or free.
