226 Engine
« on: April 03, 2017, 06:09:57 AM »
For Sale is the engine out of my 51 Kaiser Deluxe.  It is the complete engine with all components, including the starter, geneerator, 6 volt alternator, carb, distributor, and manifold.  The pistons show to be .020 over and  the cylinder walls are like new,   I removed the engine because it developed a miss on #5 cylinder and my attempts to resurface the valve seats was unsuccessful causing a loss of compression.  Valve inserts would bring the engine back to life but I decided to go with an engine swap.  The engine is located in Huntington Beach, CA.  I am asking $200 for everything.

Good looking job Jack! I especially like the dual carbs.

Thanks for sharing!

Very clean install. Was the car an auto originally?

Yes, the car was an automatic, and trying to use the old gearshift selector is quiet a challenge.
