I have two engine cases. Both need work. Both are marked with "one hole" for identification (for bearing sizes and parts compatibility).

The one with red racers tape is pretty good, but my engine builder noticed scoring on the sides of the center main bearing. Since we had another engine, I set this one aside. I can't guarantee it's a good usable block, but will sell it plenty cheap. Make offer.

The case halves with green racers tape are probably NG. The first problem it had was a generator failure. That scored the generator bore, but that was just cosmetic. I ran the engine again after replacing the generator. A couple of races later oil pump gear broke at high RPM. The engine tightened up. I'll give this away for the cost of shipping.

Crankshafts

All three of these have no markings.

Only two left

This one has been sold -->
One is tested for straightness and condition (I had two places test it because I was having a problem with bearing clearances, which turned out to be case journals).

One has a spun rod journal. Probably can be repaired.

The third is fine except idiot me broke off a bolt in the end because I didn't know it had backwards threads. If you can get the broken stud out it will be good, but it could be a challenge.

All of these are for sale for best offer. Shipping might be pricey since they're heavy.

I will let you know about this one (if it suits me). Please check the cost to come over here. Thanks :thumbsup:

It looks like shipping to Cyprus would be about $110 USD. The crank weighs 22-23 lbs.

Hey Russ shoot me a price on the bolts and a set of cam chain sliders with their pins
Can you elaborate on the bolts you want? Do you mean all those case and head bolts? I'll sell them really cheap, but wondering if you want me to limit the quantity to save on shipping to Europe. In the picture I may show enough bolts for 2-4 engines - maybe more than you need. However, I'll happily send them all.

All of your cases can be repaired. That scoring on the side of #3 is where your thrust face use to reside, it can be put back.

Thats a pretty good mess of parts ya got there Russ, are you getting out of running the 10s?

The only reason that im doing what im doing with the bearings is because i have destroyed two engines now and it makes no difference if i start with new cases or not, im just going to have the same problems over and over again with the little bearing shells.

If someone here wants to buy those cases of yours and have them repaired, to me they look fine. I wouldnt hesitate to run either set.

Thanks, Shameless. Good to know.

My race car had a Gen 1 engine in it for its first couple of years. It worked great but for a few various reasons I've changed to the Gen 2 engine, so now I have a bunch of stuff that I wont ever use.
