Good morning MrBill,
I'm looking at buying a b20 engine with an F head, that I believe once was yours. The guy who currently has the engine got it from Fidel. He's told me that he got it from you when it was installed into it was in a 75' 242. It had the rebuild sticker on it with the info.
Do you remember anything about the condition of that engine? My understanding is that it hasn't been run since Fidel removed it from the 242.
I've got a 72 1800e that has a cracked piston, and I'm looking to swap in a replacement engine while I tear down the engine currently in my car. I've never torn an engine down, so I'm planning to go slow. This engine would be for me to drive for the next year, while I'm rebuilding.
Anything you can tell me about it would be appreciated. Right now the engine is 800 miles away from me, so I want to make sure (or as sure as I can be) that I'm bringing back a solid engine.
Thanks,
Bruce
