oh boy!!

ok my luck seems good
i just found a b16 complete block minus the pistons and head for $100. it spun a rod bearing and has cracked pistons (thats why its minus the pistons) the block looks good but your really cant tell just by sight.
you think i should buy it? i think i am, it cant hurt too much its only 100 bux and anything that is wrong can most likely be fixed.

can you have a place check it out for you first? but i guess for 100 bux its an awesome deal no matter whats up with it :)

sweet deal man, buy it.

$100 for an incomplete F'd up B16 block?! Kinda seems like a lot of money to me. The expensive part of a B16 is going to be the head. $100 doesn't seem like a good deal. Shit, I'll sell you my complete B16 block for $200. Its good, doesn't even burn any oil. :)

buy SiZ's engine, you get everything and you know it has no problems - not to mention you'll save a ton of money down the road

Ya man.. If you're going to spend that much money on just a bare block, when I take my car out of storage in the summer I'll sell you my block. For $200 american I can easily pick up a B18A block for my head and tranny. :p

Seriously though man, shop around. There's gotta be way better deals out there. $100 for a fucked up block isn't a good deal at all.

damn, I should learn to read, I swore you said complete block first time I read it.

by complete i mean it has everything on the block like oil pan rods crank oil pump everything is there except for the pistons and head, #1 rod bearing is spun but im going to rebulid it anyway.
its from a 99 si. i can buy it tonight but if you guys say its alot i may rethink that. but the guy is like around the block , walking distance and he has 3 motors...

Well its def. a newer engine. But in order for a engine about 5yrs old to have a spun bearing the car must have been driven like hell.... But on the other hand it could be low mileage and good besides on cylinder. The pistons cracked-id say there could be some cyl. wall scratching which means youll need that cyl bored and youll have to do all 3 at the same time. If he is gonna charge 100 bucks try to get some other stuff from him. Or id offer him no more than 75 bucks!

sounds good. Just dont want you to pay to much....
Dont want to spend 100 bucks on something thats gonna cost you another 200 to fix, when you can spend 200 and get one that works!
Kind of get what i mean?
Try to get some other stuff with it. AHh thats what happens to me, ill go somewhere to get 1 specific thing and ill come home with a crap load more.

ok i looked it over really good and no scratches on the cylinder walls, block is fine, the crank looks good also but i will get that turned. i gave him $80 for it. im going to pick it up when i get off work. now im going to be looking for a head and maybe some CTR pistons and rods. this should be done by Feb. if everything go's well.

snatch it up worst cums da worst sell it!
