Hi Mark
That 2.7 motor is a great value, just saying for a bump to some lucky buyer.

BTW for your ears only:
I just talked to a long time old guy friend in the Metro Detroit area that is going to get ride of his stash of 914 stuff. 2.0 F.I. motor with side shift transmission (probably $1K OBO) , 2-3 Mahle wheels, two rust free 75 all complete doors (no rust) + lots of stuff in hiding.
Let me know if you are interested this spring when things warm up for a come get it deal if interested?? Just for 914 friends
Tom, hope your safe & healthy.

Thanks guys. People always ask me for a 7R case so here you go.

Quoted from Henry Schmidt on Pelican - "Heat is what kills the mag cases. 73 7R case and 74 2.7 missed the thermal reactor nightmare so they are the one to seek."

Even though it’s broken down to a long block, the cis parts are included. I also have an extra core alternator to throw in.
Still $3,500.

Still for sale $2,995

Are you willing to strap it to a pallet and drop it off at your local Fastenal? Is it free to spin or stuck?

Im selling for a friend. It in central Jersey. He can put on a pallet. I would call Freightquote and get a price for door to door. I used fastenall once and they were a huge hassle.
I also have a car shipper that might be able to give you a great price on the engine delivery. PM me if you want the info.

My friend says the engine turns halfway before stopping. Bent valve? Regardless, it’s pretty obvious it needs a full rebuild. I’ve known the seller for years so I’d trust him when it comes to sending money.

Check your PM, Fastenal (Blue Lane) has worked well for me over the years.

Especially if you don't have a forklift
