Hey 'yall, I blew up the XH on the weekend and now I have a cold *coughs*
No doubt Chief mentioned this http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...19#post3084419 It's sad, I know, but I will rebuild the old motor when the ute get's it's turn, right now I need a seco engine to tide me over for a year or two... Anyone know where I can get a red motor that runs? (my loaner car is a Vectra... kill me now!)

If anyone has seen a motor or had a look at the current build of a turbo diesel Merc in Nat's signature, it is good for a laugh.

Hooray! $450 + $268 shipping. Apparently has 210,000k and runs well... let's hope so.
Left: Buggered motor.   Now I need to save heaps of $$$ to send that old bottom end to Jim Mock so it can have a second life. Plus, I like matching numbers. Pics note: don't click them, soft pwn ads sponsor that image host. - Imageshack.us was down today.

 Now I need to raise the JMM money... so far I have $1. It's a start. Any storage tips?

 No oil pressure - so up she goes again. K-frame drop - I'll be buggered if i'm pulling the engine out again.  Another original-engine-out pic from before. Has been kept for recon later.  Sump drop to find problem - all looks good...  Oil pump bypass shaft jammed open. Replaced with hi-flow tickford unit, new. Now I'm soooo broke I'm accepting care parcels, please send them c/o Brett O'Neill Moree ;-)

Not a bad effort there mate. Certainly turned out better than your old green EF wagon. Warning to all, don't try and do body work while having a few beers.
