Default NJ/NY/CT/PA long Block

A mechanic buddy is looking for a spare engine to swap into his Model A while he rebuilds his original and matching long block. If you happen to have an old but working engine (that runs -- or ran when you removed it from your car), please let me know and I will get you in touch. He is NOT looking for a pristine rebuilt engine. He is looking for something that is good enough to have in the car as a temporary (so if it burns oil or isn't so great, he is still fine with that).

Thanks,
Seth

Joe31, he is looking to do the work himself and then reinstall his original. His desire is to have a temporary engine in the car so it can be used while he is doing the work. Basically, he needs a "back up" that doesn't need to be pretty.

Ron, I will pass your details along.

I have a good running long block for $475. You can use the accessories from his current motor.

My buddy is still looking for an engine to put in his car while he rebuilds the original engine. I've passed along the contact information from everyone who reached out to me stating that they might have one available. If you have an extra engine, please send me a message. Thanks, Seth
