        If you can save your M42 (if you have one) Ive got a lot of parts needed to build an M42. Rebuilt head, HG set, used block/pistons&rods/crank, timing cover, upper pan oil pump.

            I have one but it has no compression on cylinders 1 and 2. Started and ran before it was pulled out.

                No. I'll I know is that it has no compression on those two cylinders. It ran ok though, I used it as my DD (60 fwy miles/day). After I found out it had no compression I took it apart and put thes50 in. Everything is there expect the harness, it's has some cut wires that I used for the swap.
