Wanted Series 1 2 litre motor

#1 Post by ryancr500 » Sat Jul 29, 2023 1:19 pm

I’m looking for a motor for my 1957 series 1 86”. Originally came with a 2 Litre motor. Anyone have one laying around? Hopefully one that will turn over.

I've got a couple spreadbore engines that are seized, as well as a bunch of spare parts including a couple extra blocks.
I think you could get enough parts to get one good one built.
I did this when I built my 1.6 litre and only needed a few things extra.
Located in Kelowna.

Hey Greg, I was hoping for one that at least turns over... I don't want to start tearing it down too far. Anything with pistons in it that'll hold compression?

Don at Rovalution has an S1 spreadbore from a 107” in running condition available. Saw it last weekend.
