230 Needs Engine
 

Howdy all. Anybody in the Southeast got a bead on a motor for a late 60s 230? Apparently on of the cylinders is blown, and we were thinking it might be simpler just to get a good working engine. Thanks!

I have a 280S complete motor and trans which will bolt in
It requires shipping from zip 91977

Great. Is that California? How much are you asking? What condition is it in?

Thanks!

Is the drive shaft the same length?

Awww, darn, I'm in the Pacific Northwest and I have a good 1967 W110 230 engine I'm trying to sell.

i have a nice motor in a 1971 250

6cylinder - dual carb unit


shipping out of 21093

I would go with Squiggle and get exact same motor.

My 280S engine and trans are really good, I did total valve job and had car running well with rebuilt carbs, rebuilt trans ($1,450) girlfriend had trouble, car got impounded, towed, showed up in pick-a-part and I scavenged all the parts I put into it, right down to the new subframe mounts hoses, etc. I was pissed but saved the $3,500 invested, even took the new windshield with gasket, radiator....
Good motors are getting expensive

a bit smaller.....
 

I have a w110 200D engine and 4 speed transmission. Unknown condition; but was told the car was parked due to rust issues. I believe it.

Delivery is possible later this year --- I have to make to trip to Florida before it gets cold.
