I pulled the motor, due to a burned valve, and bought a replacement 5 speed, and new clutch and plate/throwout...
THEN I brought the engine to the machine shop, and had new pistons, honed the cylinders to match, new rings, bearings, etc... had the crank balanced, and matched to the block, had the head completely rebuilt with new springs, and valves, bought the parts to reassemble the motor... and then a tree fell on the car...
so... now I don't need the 3 valve/cyl 60mpg motor... anybody got a Tercel they wanna install a fresh rebuild into? or maybe repower some hypermile project?
make me an offer... I've got 400.00 in machine shop and parts recipts. the transmission was 350.00 and the car cost me 1000...
I'd like to get SOME of that back.
(I did get $150 scrapping the crushed body...
)
