Anyone need a motor??

Post by cjthor »

Hey fellas, I recently got my hands on a good 1.8v6 This was professionally rebuilt by a speedshop in San Fransisco. It has 30,000 miles on it. I got it and replaced three lifters that sounded like they could be replaced. Its in GREAT shape. I took the intake off and there is no deposit at all. Email me if you are interested.

Bad news is that they are fifty bucks a piece... And you have to rip the front of the motor apart to do it. Other than that is not bad Image This thing only has 30000 miles. Also how would you get this. Kinda long drive but I am sure we can figure it out. Thanks

Well its soo cheap cuz i am not 100 percent sure that i have replaced all the lifters that need replacing. Then only TRUE way to find this out is to put the motor in a car and start it up. Then you can be sure which one needs to be replaced. I have personally replaced three that looked to be bad. I guess if you want to make me an offer go ahead. I have three people that are interested and I DO HAVE PICS!!! email me and I will send em over. thanks<P>jarid<BR>94 1.6 Dohc<BR>NOW WITH NOS<BR>
