Looking for a couple of A10 engines

If they're out of the coupe with the flat top pistons that'd be excellent.

How much are u willing to spend, i think these would be hard to find?

Quote:All A10 engines used in B10/B20 vehicles had flat top pistons.

The coupe engines had a different cylinder head.

Oops, double post.

im sure that guy in wynnum with all the bits had a couple of a10 blocks sitting there.

I have one sitting in the rack,but not sure if i want to let it go

so what are these a10s worth ?

who knows i haven't seen any for sale.

ive binned a couple They had rust in the bores but may have been salvageable.

Probably getting rarer coz everybody bins them in favour for a a12

Quote:Realistically, unless you have an actual need for one of these, their market value is about $100/ton.

Before sending one for scrap, keep the distributor for a spare, pistons if suitable size for a 1200/A12 engine [flat top] the flywheel [lighter than 1200] & if it's a coupe engine, then the head [half point more compression, good for stock 1200 engine] & exhaust manifold. [dual outlet for 1000 coupes. Bolt to 1200 inlet manifold & use on 1200 engine]

Back in the early 80's I built a stock[ish] 1200 engine for my wifes 1000 two door with 1000 pistons, 1000 coupe head & exhaust, & a discarded import A14 carb [electric choke] I used a new stock coupe exhaust & it went amazingly well.
No stock 1200 could keep it in sight. [4.11 diff probably helped as well]
