Hi I've got an engine for sale which I was going to put in my van but due to a change and going over to the dark side lol Number is AN005673 It's a twin carb heat exchangers are good as is the exhaust Needs a clean Looking for £450. Can put on pallet if needed. Will put photos up later
Good! It sounds perfect for you. And at least you made me get off my arse and started stripping mine. Looks like my 2.4 litre monster may arrive quicker than 2016! I'll put provisional 2nd dibs on.
It might say it's an AN code on the case but does it have the right heads? Remember pretty much any head with a counterbore for either 1.8 or 2.0 litre B's & P's will fit a 1.8 ..... only way to check is to pop the rocker covers off and look for the nine-digit (plus a letter) part number. If it hasn't got the right heads and domed pistons it won't be a 1.8 AN spec engine. I bought a 'GE' code engine blind (cheap enough so it didn't matter) - 'GE' code is a 2.0 Litre US spec engine. Got it home to find it had 1.7 heads fitted to aftermarket 93mm pistons & barrels which made it a 1.8litre, not a 2.o litre. Got all my money back so not a problem. Interestingly the B's & P's were specials that took a 1.7 up to 1.8litre with no head machining Sorry, don't mean to be a party pooper, I've just been caught out before and am now super cautious buying complete Type 4 engines ....
Hi thanks for that and if we were all as queued up as you their would be no mistakes So just to say this engine is a 85 as far as I know , it run has a good bit of clutch left and the heat exchangers and exchaust are good. Here are some photos not good but this time of night I can move every thing out of the garage to take mor, having said that if any one is REALLY interested then I'll take the covers of and see if there is any numbers there. Or I'll put it on feabay.
Well it seems no one is, As three countries dubber has put his word in I Think it's for breaking now which I think will make more than I asked any way. Will list parts later. Thanks those who viewed.
Hi, Iam in only very early morning or after 7 at night. If you really want it as some one else has said they do but you were first.
Not quite sure what's going on Mike, but in 24 hours you haven't contacted me even though I've given you my number and email address, yet you say that nobody is interested, and then that somebody is interested but I've got first option. I'm running out of patience.
