Pulled the plug today and purchased a 1986 3.2 motor. 114,000 miles. Will have motor gone through and start the process of getting everything I need for a smooth install. Hope to be done by the Route 66 run.
Got my inspiration from MoveQik, his car and 3.2 install is a work of art.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Love mine! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Did you get to see the motor run? Since it's out, at a minimum you should reseal it and set the valves. Common problems are valve guides and if you saw it run, you'd know if it smokes... they can also pull head studs but far less common than the 2.7 and less often than the 3.0... What are 3.2 motors going for these days? I heard in the $15K range? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |
