FJ20E not quite complete motor

Post by DJZ »

I'm thinking about selling my spare FJ as I'm probably never going to get round to doing anything with it.

Pretty sure it's out of a DR30, it's a non turbo motor. It's missing:

Cam pulleys
Top cam chain
Inlet manifold
Dizzy leads
Head bolts
Flywheel
The FJ20 plate from the front of the motor
Lots of other small bits and pieces

The head is off and the bores look okay with some minor marking, I haven't had the sump off. The oil that was in there looked quite grey so it may have got water in it when the head was removed (not by me) and it's been sitting for a long time. The crank pulley has a couple of chips out of it and I've noticed today that there is a pin around where the cam chain runs that's broken, I don't know what it does yet. From memory I have drilled and tapped the two end exhaust manifold studs to 10mm for when I was mocking up an exhaust manifold, I also gave it a very rough port match on the exhaust side to an Autobend flange which needs to be finished.

I want what it owes me back which is about $300, if anybody wants to know if anything specific is there let me know. I like having the rocker cover hanging on my wall so might take less without it :)

the "pin" is an oil squirter for the top chain.

Ah yeap, oil jet is what they call it on the parts breakdown.

Now that I think about it the top cam chain might actually be there but sitting in the front cover. I'll have another look tomorrow.
