Keep the oil changed and keep water out of the exhaust and they should last forever. I have kept one extra rotor and stator in the event that I would need one down the road

It was an interesting teardown. I have rebuilt dozens of small block chevys. I have never seen an engine that the crank comes out the back before!

Cape I got the motor free if you still need a block. I have two pistons out and the other two are moving. No sign of a crack. But the reason I don't do a hone job and move on in these motors showed up again. Water went down the push rods and ended up in the governor. Cam gear was one hunk of...

I could put it in my press and pop them free I'm pretty sure. But even if they were free I wouldn't use it without a rebuild. It's just faster and easier for me to throw another engine in it rather than screw with it. I may throw some evaporust in those 2 cylinders to see what happens before I...

Center two cylinders are rusted solid. Tranny fluid sitting in them for a year and not a drop made it past the rings

So I finally got around to swapping motors last week. It wasn't bad at all. It took about 8 hours I'd say. I ended up with a used engine for $700 to put in this. With purchase price being low as beat up as it was it will still be a worthwhile investment. I did it a little different than...

These were almost all stacked two high and some three high. They said it was because of lack of space. The sheet metal wasn't awful. Pictures did show most of that. What they didn't show (and makes me really glad I went to look) was missing parts on a lot of units. Some of the ones were obvious...

I did look through the preview today. There is a lot of junk in this one. I may have found one for a donor, just have to see where it goes price wise.

Well I had a little time this morning so I took the tractor down and grabbed this unit and put it in my shop. I decided I'd pull the head, if nothing else to see how these engines go together. Experience is better for me than reading in the engine TM! It wasn't as bad as I thought. Only the...

I suspect the reason the 813s are going as high as they are is just that. Some people are in for a surprise! I just hope they figure it out before they hook up to a building! I found genuine gasket sets...to the tune of $500. That's another reason I am looking for a runner. The next auction...

Anyone close to the Adelman's in Chicago that could check this out?

Not looking to stir up trouble between members here. Daybreak I didn't realize you sold stuff. I thought maybe you were in the market for an engine.

If they were doing this out of the plant that is close to me you bet I'd be doing that. All the tear down seems to occur in Chicago on gensets, at least according to what they told me on the phone. That is a 8 hour drive for me. I really wish they were ripping these down at the location a half...

There are Federal laws in place to protect the consumer. If you wanted a reman DN2M for the $450 they would have to give you one. The Chicago and Canton branches have different prices on things. That printed ad is out of Chicago. And since that ad specifically says reman for $450 they have to...

I would guess that it's just a reman and you supply the starter and accessories. Even without accessories $450 is still a pretty good price. I priced rebuilding the 4 cylinder and the gasket set was more than that. I've bought stuff from them before from the Canton location and everything was...

I was going to say check post #8. That is only at their Chicago location too. I'm very close to the Ohio location and they said $895 for the same thing.

No doubt! And the 2 cylinders were remans at only $450. Almost makes me want to look for an 802 with a bad engine!

Adelman's wants $1300 for engines!! The picture they sent me was of one wet stacked badly too. I think I'll look at the next auction for him. I could probably get a complete unit for that price almost!

Nobody answering phones at Adelman's today. Guess they are still closed. The machine shop I use said find a runner instead of rebuilding that one for sure.

Guy this is exactly what I was looking for and couldn't find anywhere! You just can't beat years of hands on experience. I've pulled plenty of engines out of vehicles and equipment so it doesn't worry me, but this will make it easier. Looking at it I think I would have removed the front and...
