DoctorWho Hi Mr 1971_144GL I know this is an old thread, do you still have a collection of Volvo motors, manifolds, etc? Regards Anthony
DoctorWho I was just over in Melbourne. I have a 142s purchased earlier in the year. Is all your gear original stock or aftermarket as well like cam's, roller rockers, pistons, rods etc? What sort of $ would you want for a B20. Do you have a contact number?
carnut222 There is a recent ad in our Rolling Australia magazine - B20 engine for rebuilding or spare parts - pick-up only (Brunswick East VIC) Contact Steven 0415405123. Not sure he still has it but FYI if anyone is interested.
DoctorWho 1971_144GL any success on knowing what you have? If it's anything like me, there is probably that much it's hard to tell what's there and how many! Phone number?
Major Ledfoot DoctorWho A B20 just popped up as a freebie in 'Rolling' magazine which arrived today. I will PM you with the seller's details.
1971_144GL In Melbourne I currently have a 73 d jet engine and I think a 72 b out of cars. Both six bolt. They are good enough to keep in dry storage with oil in the bore, turned over occasionally, but I don't know the actual condition. I have other engines in TAS and a few in cars temporarily while I rebuild their matching numbers engine. But they would take longer to be available. Someone else on here has expressed interest in the carb engine. I'd probably sell as a bare engine.
DoctorWho Thanks all, I did write the number down but haven't had a chance to call. 1971_144GL did you have a contact number, might be easier? Also what are the numbers on the engines?
1971_144GL This engine looks like it is sold to another member. I will have a look at the next that might be excess, but they are in TAS and it will be a number of weeks until my next car trip over. But freight is not that bad using TAS freight.
DoctorWho 1971_144GL Hi mate, did you still have some B20's or all gone? I'm heading over to Melb on the 9th December.
DoctorWho 1971_144GL is that the carb eng? Still have the injected engine? I wanted your number as I'm in WA and head over every so often but possibly not for quite a while as I just came back from Melb. The injected engine is prob fine and maybe if there were other internals.
1971_144GL Hi, I still have one in Melbourne I think and a couple in Tas. What version of engine were you after?
DoctorWho 1971_144GL Hi mate, either is fine. 142s B20 or the B20e which I think is the injected one. I'm flying over so maybe I could have a look while in Melb.
