i believe you have it

sutphen 30 10-09-2019 07:00 PM

you do know those 540's are super low compression.only good as blower motors.

Sick Stinger 10-09-2019 08:11 PM

So they won’t run on an intake and carb? Impossible ? Pretty sure air and fuel with some sparky sparky they run.
You want the boat ? Just about stripped and ready for scrap.

Smoke eater 10-09-2019 08:21 PM

Bump for a awesome seller. Never been disappointed with anything I purchased from mike. Including my motors. Mike is a straight shooter. Wish everyone was as honest as him thanks again for everything

it'll run,not good,heads sucked even with the blowers,the theres the blower cam,couldn't imagine what it would be like na.
as for the boat,if its free

How about that short drive shaft guard. For Sale?

Sick Stinger 10-10-2019 07:26 AM

So bill for 13 or so even buying pistons and a refresh as NA not worth it?
did you put these motors together? Why would you use a head that “sucks”? Weird.
shaft guard was part of the staggered set up.
If any one wants flats or dome pistons I can have them redone with dyno and warrenty papers on them.
bill sounds like you are interested. Does this help? And I’ll do it for cost of parts and dyno and I’ll cover the labor and transport to and from machine shop.

Sick Stinger 10-10-2019 07:27 AM

Nothin is free, but I’ll sell it reasonable.

open87 10-10-2019 07:30 AM

So not shaft guards in that city block warehouse of yours

Only one I have coming in is this one pictured

sutphen 30 10-29-2019 07:40 PM

you change the pistons and camshafts?

Sick Stinger 10-29-2019 09:39 PM

Where does it say I changed them? Maybe I missed it.
Still wondering about the heads you put on this motor you build for your friend with crappy heads.

do you still have the whipples that were on these motors? because in looking for a carb 2.3 or 3.3

I was given shcitty castings from him,,he had them bought for him..I could only open the exhaust port so much before I'd break into the water jacket.and w/ the piss poor casting world was producing back them,I wasn't gambling on ruining them.
heads sucked so bad,those motors w/ whipples could only muster 731hp. and 740hp.
if I had to recam those motors for the whipples,,I'd have gone for a 12 degree split on the camshaft.
but hey,that ~8-1 compression ratio,you can run them on 87 octane.:D I did have some afr heads for him but he was all done working on the boat/engines,he just wanted to run it.

Sick Stinger 10-30-2019 08:49 PM

So cost effect too with budget friendly 540s win win.
BB5 CNC , I mean they are no AFRs but I think they will flow ok.
