• B200 engine bits

Posted: **07 Mar 2006 12:38 am**

Anyone got a spare B200 lump knocking about? I dont need the whole thing (no more room for engines in the garage), just a few choice bits:
Oil pump and sump
Auxillary shaft
Dizzy cap and drive

I'm getting annoyed with the B230 engine hanging around and not doing anything, so I figure I may as well try and prep it for use.

Well I've obviously got them all in the car, it would just be easier if I had them now. Ah well.

Carl, I hate to have to do it, but I'll be stripping the black GLT saloon I have, so there will be all the bits you need and more.......

Just let me know when and I can either give you a list or pop up and help you strip it.

Remember my MSN discussion about the EFI pipework Pete

Very true Andy, we do! I know you have an oil pump, but can you help out with a pan?

cheers

James, I have an entire B200E engine sitting in my driveway

It doesn't have a head now (long story) or a fuel rail and an injector (even longer story ) but the rest of it is still there, although its now rained so a bit of rust has started inside the bores of No2 and 3 cylinders.

Right, Carl, Foggy, if you're both interested, we need to act fast and when ever suits you both best, if you can come over, we'll get these bits removed, and with Andy's engine there should be enough for everyone! My Dad needs the car gone to make some space.

I think we had a bit of a natter today re: parts Pete. I'll get you some VADIS pics, and we can take it from there. I'll get my versions of the parts Carl's having from Pete from Andy. Wow, awesome grammar there James...

cheers

Sounds like a plan there James. VADIS pics would be useful, then I'll get it all removed so you should have everything you need. As I mentioned the fuel pump is the suspected reason for the non-running saloon, so that is the only part you'll need to source elsewhere I'm afraid other than what Carl is having.

Pete, I'm still in the middle of trying to sort my girlfriends car (i hate mid engined cars!!!), so that has to take priority as she wants it back plus I dont like her putting mileage on Fioner!! Could pop over in a few weeks time at the earliest (weekend that is). Is that too late?

Ok, well, I had a bit of a change of plan, thought it through and have found a way round a few problems. Basically, I'm going to have to break my F reg saloon as well, Steve, do you want first dibs on the rear screen with high level rear brakelight? So that means all the bits you both require will be on that one too, so I can break the black saloon now, as quick as I can, save what I need and what I can get for you guys, then anything else you need the other saloon will still be there to rob from. A few weeks time will be fine Carl. Also look out for something in the post..... at last!

Keep me in mind Pete

We'll talk later I'm sure.

Sounds good to me Pete! Might be a couple of other minor bits I need, so I'll start writing a shopping list

Does this mean I'm going to lose my treasured number plate?
