OK, I am considering doing something crazy... I have a complete, PERFECT condition with PERFECT COMPRESSION, B series JCESE 3rotor 20B longblock that I am considering tearing down and parting out.. WHY??? Do to overwhelming demand for 20b Spare parts.. The motor I am considering doing this with is one of my spare motors and it is a perfect motor with absolutely nothing wrong with it..

I order for me to do this, I would need to net atleast $4000.00 in total sales of all the parts (currently what a 20b longblock is worth to me) for it to be worth it.

So lets talk about it... who needs what part from this engine and what you guys believe is fair market VALUE for the particular part??

I would not even consider taking any tools to the motor until atleast 85% of the parts are pre-sold...

What do you guys think?? is this something you are interested in?? If not, I will gladly keep the motor in storage for a later project down the road..

 

I am interested in the big intermidiate housing.

/Lasse

 

Yes the large center iron and e-shaft will be the key parts...

 

whats the differenece between the 13b rew irons and the 20b's ? i know the rotor housings are interchangable. and i have a fairly new 13b sitting around that if alota the parts were interchangable i was gona buy another 13b housing and rotor and then id need the center iron and eshaft?

 

The secondary intake inlet on the 20b side plates are larger. The front plate of the 20b engine has tension bolt holes.

 

what is the purpose of the tension bolt holes? sorry to ask a shitoad of questions, ive owned my 7 for a year now and constantly eager to learn about somthing especially if i might use that info later ( like now trying to peace together or buy a 20b) just tryin to figure out if it would be easyer to buy a full 20b and upgrade it or peace one together by getting the irons and e shaft. and one more rotor and housing for a 13 b cause i have to housings and rotors laying around

 

the 20b uses rear facing tension bolts for the 1st rotor. This is only on 20b's. 13B's tension bolts are installed in the rear facing forward.

 

so with 13b housings and rotors. and 20b irons. i would use the rear facing tension bolts correct? oh and seeings how ive already hijacked this thread i do have interest in the parts for sale. how much do you want for the eshaft and irons?

 

See the pic

 

not to hate on japan2la's thread here, but, bosscobra: trying to piece a 20b engine together will cost you a fortune. You need 20b specific tension bolts. They arent the same as the 13b. any of them. PLus you need the upper and lower intake manifolds, fuel rails, etc etc. look on ebay they are always for sale...just tryin to save you a few bucks.

 

If it goes, I'm interested in the 2 conter weights and center stationary gear.

 

how much are you asking for the whole shortblock? dont matter if its taken apart or not cause its going to be rebuilt and ported... let me know... pm me

 

so the one ones i see on ebay are worth the 3800 just for the fact that its all there? and then i can upgrade housings when i get the porting and rebuild done?

 

yup. That way, you have ALL the parts. manifolds, injectors, throttle body, tension bolts, waterpump housing, oil pan, oil pump, rotors, etc etc....

 

hey you still didnt get with a pm on how much your asking for the complete shortblock

 

Brian, lemme know how much you want for the E-shaft. Email me plz.

 

I emailed you..

 

Well, due to lack of interest..this is gone.. Sold the whole motor today...Maybe next time guys..
