Hi Ty have a question for you.Do you have another VC-160 Mark II engine?I pulled the Mark II engine down that I got of you.It's not a good story.The rings are shot,the piston is scored and the bore would need to be re-bored.Bascilly it's about the same amount of work as the one I have here.The one it was replacing.You wouldn't have known what it would have been like unless you pulled it down to.I mean yes it is fixable but I didn't want to spend that kind of money on it.I guess that why it's here.





If you look on the right hand side you can see how the ring is thinner on that side.


Rust all over the inside of the crank.Would have to be cleaned off.So rust doesn't go through the rest of the engine.



Even after I cleaned this side you can still see the groves in the piston.All in all about the same size job as the one it was replacing.So if you have another Please I need it.All I can say is it has been a while since this was a running engine.My guess is it would have blown some smoke as well.Let me know how you get on.Thanks man
