I think it was from the posties motorbike

hmm maybe not from a postie bike. It came from a 6 cyclinder cummins truck engine, diesel of course. I think its about 500ci from memory. Its damn heavy, like two peole cant lift it and the flywheel which is welded on the bottom to stand it up. When I moved it from the shed, I tipped it onto a trailer, and then moved it to the location is is noe, and stood it there. I havent shifted it in about 2 years, and I dont plan to...

i'd hate to be the one to tell you you had to move it, but it doesnt look like its in a good position for the postie, it looks like its half way up ya driveway

very cool though

well thats where it gets a but funny. As I couldnt find anything to put on the top for a box, I have have to move it back about 2 metres from wgher the letterbox should be and built one form limestone. The lime stone looks fancy, but it wasnt what I wanted. When i get someting for the top, I might move it the 2 metres forward. Its abut a 3-4 person job though.
Anybody got any ideas for the top. Mechaniahlly orientated prefered.
I thought about gutting a gearbox, but that was going to be too hard i thought.

one of the pistons outta that thing is probably big enough

500 cid thats a little bigger than the hondas 50cc postal runabouts.

hmm well yes a bit bigget than the posties bike. I feel sorry for your posties on 50cc! They use CT110s in perth. I have one in the shed for a hack. They go kind alright. Mines been well ahhh used.

unforunatly I didint get anything else with the crank besides the block and the camshaft. I couldnt get the cam out and the block is elsewhere in the garden. I cant move it so it is gonna stay there and add some iron to the soil.
