How did I end up rebuilding this bloody motor Good advice I reckon. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubastreet Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I think so, if it's the original. There won't be that many around that don't need work. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell it is, its an early 3 bearing motor. Carjam suggests near on 200,000kms and 32 owners - so.. yeah. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locost_bryan Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Cool, if it's the original engine, rebuild it to stock, it might be worth more as an unmolested genuine original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
