Hi All,
It seems that l'm in need of at least a reco'd head and bottom end rebuild to the engine.
Does anybody know of sources in the
Melbourne area that are good?
I've heard of a mob on Wetherby Rd that reco engines generally. Anyone know there name and contact details?
Anyone used them?
The other option is a 2nd hand decent engine - any sources for those too??
Or... what other engine options work
well in an 80 auto eg Chev Diesel etc??
Any help greatly received at the mo.
Cheers

Gday
Have a look under landcruiser on www.ebay.com.au...there is a whole motor there for 1900 in melb, but be aware it was running on gas as the picture shows aftermarket inlet pipework that would suggest a mixer was there...
Bottom line is you are probably better getting another motor if yours has been overheated, or if you just need a freshed up, look for a good head.
Shoot me an email on limo4b@yahoo.com.au and i will give you some numbers and info.
With reconditioned motors, they have usually been overheated and are actually more than one motor put back together....so be aware of this possibility anyway.
