1.6TD Mech Block for sale.
« on: March 15, 2010, 02:32:44 pm »
Getting ready to strip a 1.6td mech block and drop it at the machine shop.  Gonna have it pressure tested / magnafluxed.  Will be hot tanked and bored / honed to the next size.  Will have the crank polished or turned as needed.  Rods will be checked.   May just go with the full rebuild-pistons bearings etc.
 I Plan on selling this  when I am done.  Going to use the funds to help complete the franken build.
  Cost will determined by the amount of work done.

Let me know if you might be interested.

Block is stripped and at shop.  Everything was Standard.  Looks to be an original set up with no rebuilds on it. All the bearings looked good no signs of scoring or damage. Oil squirters are in good shape.

Everything is being tanked.  Parts will be inspected and magnafluxed (block, rods, crank, caps, IM shaft). Will have the crank polished.

I can go a couple ways with this.  I can sell it cleaned and inspected as a solid core for a build.  You will need to bore, hone, add bearings and pistons etc.

I can have it bored and honed to the next standard size up, or I can go with a full on rebuilt shortblock.
I have a fresh rebuilt head as well that is sitting on a N/A block right now.  Longblock?


Any interest?  Like to sell it all together, if no interest after a while, I will part it all out.
