Default front clips

when you import a jap engine why do you often get a front clip?why not just send the motor? my guess would be just to convert to right hand drive if you would want to but i just wanted to know for sure

you almost always just get the motor from a motor importer. some people prefer getting a front clip because everything is there and lots of little extra parts come with it.

Hit the nail right on the head, but also RHD conversions are another factor in getting a clip, not only to use it, but also to potentially sell it.
