Yeh i have a 1600 Kent Crossflow engine
its the 711M block... heres what i know: carby worked great, excellent response... owned by a mechanic before i bought it. new fuel pump, and new valve cover gasket obviously its old so it has some oil buildup around the block and such but theres no oil leaks and the head gasket does not leak.. comes with bellhousing, clutch (apart) starter motor, alternator, etc ill get a picture if i can.. engine pulled really well for a little thing so even though i never got around to doing a compression test i expect it to be pretty decent. started first time EVERYTIME and get this, everytime it was started i never new it had a mechanical choke.. so it started first time everytime in the cold with choke OPEN. car has 76,000kms on it... this im expecting to be 176,000 as the engine ran WAY too well to be at 276,000 shouldnt really say it needs a rebuild, but it woudlnt hurt... if its gonna race, yes, if its just a town driver etc, the engine will need a rebuild in the next year or two. driven by a uni student for 2 years whos father was a mechanic. comes with air cleaner even though its not on the engine the wires on the engine we NOT cut they were all disconected properly pickup only Flinders, Vic, 3929 |
