CHEVY II 4 CYLINDER 153 AND MERCRUISER 140 HP MISC ENGINE PARTS

I've had these parts for around 40 years, thought we might want to turbocharge a 4 cylinder and race it in a rail dragster. Well that didn't happen, instead we built a nitrous 383. Anyway we picked up various parts back then.

*I have two crankshafts, one is casting number 8522 it is forged with small counterweights, 1971 date code. Asking $50

*The other crank is casting number N39877 with much larger counterweights and it is cast, not forged, I found N398776 as a valid casting number online, but this crank is machined right at the end of the 7, so maybe? the 6 was machined off at the factory? It has a 1971 date code. Asking $50

*I also have a Chevy II block, casting number 3833045, with a S/N F02I3E. This block is still greasy and I believe it would clean up with an overbore just fine. Asking $150

*The Mercruiser block (larger cylinder bore) slung a rod and poked a hole between the oil pan rail and below the water jacket. We were going to use it, braze up the hole and go. But I digress. That block is casting number 2770087, with a Mercruiser S/N of 353856 and a 1971 date code. This block was hot tanked 40 years ago and subsequently very rusty from sitting inside an old car. Every surface on it would need a "cleanup" pass. Asking $50

*Then there is a bare cylinder head for the 140 HP Mercruiser. This head does not have the siamese ports like a 6 cylinder chevy engine. 1971 Date code. The head physically fits on either block. Asking $100

*There is also a camshaft and cam gear. I will include this with the first block that sells for no cost.

The cranks are rusty and would need to be turned. Really everything but the Chevy II block is rusty.

Make an offer for any piece part or all of it.
