Banga Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I've had a 1600 kicking around for 10 years or so- dry stored and still turns over mint by hand. There was a dude on Facebook looking for a 1600 and I posted that I had one. the old man dug it out and took some photos and turns out that it's a 711m block- fairly sure it hasn't been bored. Ive read that this is one of the more desirable and rare castings due to being thicker/stronger. Any crossflow gurus know if that means it's more $$$ or just another shitty old 1600 and take what I can get for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
66gt Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 If it's standard bore it's worth more however if not just another 711m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R3spct Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 I know someone that would be interested, Formula Ford guys need them to meet the specs of the class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHLEX Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Old thread but thought id chuck my 2c in. I paid $850 for mine, standard bore, had a replacement piston and set of rings chucked in a few years back. I didn't think that was too badly priced. Spent around 6 months trying to find one as my earlier engine ran but was pretty tired, ended up finding a guy locally with about 3 of them under his bench and he agreed to sell me one eventually. Sounds like they are commonly bored and a "standard" motor is what everyone wants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
