Looking For A 2.3 Block..

Recommended Posts

The engine in the yellow overheated on the new owner and blew a hole in the head <_< . I'm helping him to put a new motor in and possibly manual swap it. Figured I'd check with you guys and see if someone in the area has a block and head for sale? If not, any suggestions on a local place i might be able to find one? Trying to avoid shipping one

I have a running motor from a 98 with 140k. 16t turbo still attached. $500

Hey Danny, sent you a pm, need your number to discuss buying the engine

I have one too, 2.3 off a T5R that dyno'd at 250whp before car got totaled. Already on a pallet, ready to go. $400 if you come pick it up.

thanks for the offer, if the deal with Danny doesn't work out you're the next best option

This may not work for the original poster but I have an overheated 96t5 engine for free. Probably just needs a new head. So if anyone needs parts or the entire thing let me know.

What tells you that the head is shot?

The fact that the guy who gave this to me replaced the entire engine with one from a junkyard. I haven't opened it up so I don't know what is going on with it. I originally took it just for parts but I never needed anything off of it.
