    Complete Leaky M42 Hou TX

    I just got the head bolted back on with a fresh gasket to find the water pump has been JB welded to the block and it leaks pretty bad and I don't wanna risk anything getting it off. Other than that the engine is now running better than ever. The metal ring on the head gasket blew letting coolant mix, that being the reason for the change. New timing rails. Thats about it.

    Just seeing who's interested. I don't really know how much these things go for so just to name a price $450.
    LMK and I can post pics.
    No parting out as I want to get rid of this thing whole so I can get an M20 in it's place.

            What does it come with?

            If available, I'm interested in the motor, tranny, wiring harness, radiator, DS, and ECU. Maybe even all of the m42 AC stuff. I have to be honest though - $450 is way high for a long block in that condition.

              I have an m20 lying around (incomplete, needs head, intake, fuel rail) that does have accessories (compressor, alternator, etc) I could trade + some cash for your m42. LMK if interested.

                Really it's just the motor-wires-ecu
                I'm looking for something complete. I can't sell the tranny yet.. I'm hoping the 240 will bolt up to any swap motor I can find.

                I'm working on this water pump still and I will hopefully have it out with a fresh one in, in that case the price won't budge too much hence the price of a new water pump.

                LMK guys.
