I have this one which is complete inc carby, fuel pump, coil, and exhaust/extractors, clutch etc. I'll take $175 for it. I'm near Chermisde. (on the edge of Wavell Heights)

Its a 1969 1500cc single port I believe. The last shot has the engine number so you can do your research :)

There is a couple of drips of oil on my concrete from where it has been sitting for over a year. The carby is covered over so there isn't any nasties in there and it still turns over no probs.

Mate i got a pulled apart 1600 long block complete. I'll even throw in a box of new pistons for $150 (no barrels or rings).

Your choice of dual port of single port heads. The motor came with single port heads.

I bought it for $550 on the Action day before last (engine) and pistons for $40 (NOS brazilian). It was a working 1600 but had not been moth-balled properly and so I stripped it down for a rebuild. This is as far as i got before i bought an ally case and gone for a turbo, bored, stroked project for my baja. Its just sitting in my shed consuming space. At least its in a state where you can really inspect the components and see if it suits you.

Thanks,
Chris.
