Hello all....new user here!

Picked up a 1990 Sc over the weekend, looking to swap out my motor for a replacement at this time..then build mine on the side..... Of course mine has HG blown....with lots o water in oil.

So, looking for a running complete motor. Super down to pan...accessories still on it perferably! Like to jsut pull and install other one.

So, i would like to see what is out there.....hopefully close enough to pick up. Be awesome to find one with HG already replaced on it..if not...no biggie...jsut no current issues internally is what i want.

Let me knowwhat you got!!

Thanks to all beforehand!

Pittsburgh PA, 300.00 for a long block and up depending on what you want with it. I have some gaskets here I cah pull the heads and install them W/new head bolts for 60.00 more, that would be a good time for you to check out the inside of the motor.

I have one in a 1989 SC with 130,000 on it. I am located in central Wisconsin. Still in the car if you are interested in seeing it run. I'd rather not sell the SC setup though. drop me a line if you are interested.

Thanks for the offer.

I am jsut waiting for one to come across that is close enough to pick up if needed. I can swap my current charger over and such. Even if the motor was a long block but no charger and accessories...that would be fine...i jsut want something that has internals and heads with good gaskets ready to go with my parts swapped.

Waiting to hear back from roadfever still

How far is Logansport from the Michigan border?

I have a great runner I am pulling out soon for a real fair price ($350.00 w/ old SC core or $400.00 without) and I can make the state line for deliveries (a might bit farther also if so inspired)
