cheers bart, have always lurked, thought id sign up and give it a whirl, should be some good progress over the long weekend.

have done a bit to it allready, un siezed the brakes, almost ready to yank the motor out. have cut some rust etc

[Bartman]

maybe find out why the motpr nipped up? It'd be fucking cool to keep the original early series motor with matching numbers in a car this old and rare. If you wanna throw it on an engine stand, and perform an autopsy, let me know.

Try and keep the original engine if possible - you can use later L6 parts inside to replace bits that are a bit beyond reco. Those engines were produced in very small numbers making way for the L24 just a year after these first appeared. If budget is a concern - just put a L24/26 in there for now while you strip the L23 and do it correctly - this engine needs to say with this car

But then it is your car so do with it as you like

[fletch]

if you need any parts let me know. Im coming to nz next weekend and will have about 15kg of capacity

i might have some l23 parts left lurking about. Not manyparts from the later l24/26/28 will fit. the timing covers are different, the sump also.

[Mutiny]

have you got one wrecking out?
