The block is an 86mm GE sleeved(Endyn pistons), Crower rods(the good ones!), GSR girdled(the proper way) B20. ARP head studs, O-ringed cylinders.

The motor was run for about 60 miles for an attempted break-in period, NO BOOST was ever seen with the motor.
As you can see, the B16A cylinder head(will come with bare intake manifold) was not very leak-free in the #2 cylinder. We discovered this before any damage was done(leak developed at the end of the 60 miles). The head itself is junk, but the parts on the head are in excellent shape! Rev dual valve springs, TI retainers, I believe Supertech stainless exhaust valves. It would be an easy ordeal to swap these parts over to a known good head.

In an attempt to solve the head leak problem(thought it was an O-ring that hadnt crushed yet), we torqued the head studs to 90 lb/ft, and unfortunately stripped the middle-front stud-thread in the block; directly behind the dipstick. Its an easy fix for any competent machinist. This is the ONLY problem with the block, the rest is very sound, very true.

We will sell the whole motor for $1000 <U>OBO</U> as its taking up space and we no longer have a car to install this in. There will be no warranties of any such, but if I had a proper chassis, I wouldnt hesitate to fix and install in my own car. This is a best-offer deal and I suppose we will part-out, but at this price, why bother?
We will get the block threads fixed for $150, as thats what my machinist would charge me to fix(easy fix, good as new!). Ill leave that up to the end-user.

Also, thats a B series AC Mini-me turbo manifold; T3 flanged. Will let go for $450, and whatever WG flange you want, just get it outta here. Brand new, never used.

Good deals to someone willing to work a lil bit

 

bump

 

bump for Cody, who built the motor anyway?

 

sent PM on the manifold...

 

I built the bottom end, everything was PERFECTLY in the middle of spec from the factory, a very tight bottom end. Upon driving for a few miles(40 or so), the motor saw exactly 235psi on all 4 cylinders, then the head started leaking so we pulled the motor before any damage was done.

 

What cr is this engine running?

 

Block sold, head is still pending, but at this point Im thinking of pulling the springs/retainers off and just parting, as thats all thats really good anyway(intake manifold is ok).
It was supposed to be a 9.5:1 motor, but compression results showed 235psi(got a 2nd tester becaues I was shocked). It may have been due to the head being milled...

 

Hey Cody, its Bryan from Truboost, how much for the head internals? PM'd you.
