before you decide, remember :

 

- i hate spending money

- in adelaide a good running 4k with 4 speed is worth a carton of beer, no more.

 

4k motor

big port head

sprinter twin carbs

elec dizzy

extractors (ke20)

mild cam

no box

complete w/all access (alt etc)

bottom end makes 'a noise'

 

note i don't have a car for all this to go into either so factor in that i have to pay $1000 for a car w/broken motor at some stage and also i have to source a bottom end (should be able to find one for free)

 

the aim of the game is to make a 'daily driver' for $1000 or less!

let's look at how much this all costs to buy in working condition

 

4k motor, complete w/all access (alt etc) $150

big port head $80-$200

sprinter twin carbs $300

elec dizzy $150

extractors (ke20) $50

mild cam $80

 

so far that's around 750 to a grand's worth of bits. i'd ask $500ish

 

you really need to define "a noise". if it's say timing chain, then that's all good and easy fixed. if it's say, a big end bearing or rod bolt, well, at least you'd be getting a bargain on the rest. you're either going to have to fix it or put all the good stuff on another motor
