    Complete M42 part-out. New headgasket set. UPDATED

    Hey everyone, I am parting out a M42 that was run hot. The head and block are cracked! Backstory: My sister owned this car for about a year. She ran it hot, and thought she blew a head gasket. She disassembled the engine, and bought some new parts to rebuild it. However, it turns out the engine has a cracked head and block. Now it's getting M50 swapped.

    Everything is available from the engine. Keeping the AC compressor for now.

    I have a few prices below + shipping, or shoot me a pm with an offer on things not listed.

        Odometer stopped at 111,000 miles.

        I can get some up close shots when I get home from the park. What specifically would you like to see?

        Everything is clean and rust free. Only the tips of the cams have the beginning of rust. I sprayed the head and timing components down with lube so they wouldn't rust.

        I have it. the plastic intake piece is good condition, but the rubber gasket that seals it to airbox is cracked.

            I'm interested in pics of the chain guides. Want to inspect how much wear there is and if they're the updated ones.

              Here are pics as requested. The car is a 1/91 production date. I can't get great pics of the guide with the front cover still on, but as soon as I pull it, I can expect them more thoroughly.

                          bump! I also have a less than 2,000 mile water pump, and a working alternator!

                            Copied From M42Club

                            That was fun! Let's do it again:

                            If you have them and they're not rusted and corroded back to their natural state, I'd like numbers 1, 3 and 11.



                            I'll also take the "lower intake manifold" if you still have it.

                              Not to be a negative nancy but that piece, 11, is to be brand-new anytime it's removed or installed....I had one fall off after a transmission swap, learning the hard way...
