Found an engine, now a few more questions. 120-130 67.5

posted by  someone claiming to be mario on  Wed Aug 8 06:24 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I have located a good used B20 engine that was taken out of a wrecked 122. It has dual SUs and the injector ports have been plugged. The man says it ran great on the test stand. Is $450 a good deal? I think I am going to go for it.

Questions:

When I go to pick it up what should I be looking for to make sure that it is compatible with my bellhousing?

I remember discussion regarding motor mounts and that the mounts from a particular model worked with the 122, but lasted way longer than the normal ones. Which mounts should I buy?

What other simple things should I renew? Should I put in a new throwout bearing? How easy is it to take the engine out without taking the hood off?

Thanks for all the help so far, I believe this will be cheaper and easier than rebuilding my old b18,

Mario m.
