Looks like I am just going to wait and do the V8 swap instead of repairing the I4 in the meantime since finding a good head has been elusive at best. So I have the following from an '85 I4 2.3:
2.3 shortblock. Unknown mileage but apparently ran well until the head gasket went- $100 (Still in car but I'll help pull it. No head)
Carb for said motor almost brand new, with a reman date of Oct 2016- $40
SROD transmission- $150 Has a brand new clutch/PP installed
SROD bell housing (to Mount the SROD or a 3550 Tremec)- $40
Alternator- $10 (will also include with short block)
Intake- $10 (will also include with short block).
A couple air cleaner assemblies- $10 (Take one with the short block too)
Valve covers- $5 each (have two- yup. One can go with the short block)
All the 'stuff' from the head (tensioner, cam wheel, followers, etc)- $10
Head bolt set- $10
Gasket set for head swap- (includes valve seals)- $15
I can text photos much easier than posting them - hope that is OK. All shipping paid by buyer of course, but prices negotiable of course also.
You can also text me instead at 5four1-52one-four97five
Thanks!!
Here is a deal for someone local - EVERYTHING for $250. At least I *think* that's a deal...
Of course you'd have to be close enough to pick it all up.
