your the one who said it was a done deal on your second offer mate,i didnt go ahead the first time because im not building this engine anymore because i got a running a14.

you wrote or swap, i agreed ed with swap ,isn't that a done deal,or did i read it wrong.

yes i did write that mate ,but usually people would tell them what they got and if they want to go ahead with there offer but you just said done deal withour asking i dont want to argue mate im not on this forum to do that

all good.cheers

I realise this is less than you want, and I totally understand if you aren't interested in the offer, but given it has a spun bearing, I'm more or less buying it for the block and the head (most would argue that the crank would be salvageable if ground to the next undersize, and I won't necessarily argue with that. 3 of the rods should be good too, and the 4th maybe, but maybe not.

Since it's interstate, I can't see it in person beforehand, so I've got to try and do a 'sherlock holmes' as to why it might have spun a bearing. It could have been oil starvation, it might be a combo of poor maintenance/driver abuse (and I mean the bloke who damaged it, not you mate!), maybe it was allowed to get ridiculously hot. If it _was_ the latter, it might mean that the head is warped or cracked, or in some way damaged.

So given that I've got a few a15 motors now, I'm really just chasing the block and head. and likely mostly the block (due to above concern about the head)

I'll offer $50 for the block, or $100 for the lot if that suits you. If not, no hard feelings at all, all the best with the sale. I can transfer money into your account tuesday of next week, but wouldn't be able to collect for a couple of weeks (I was supposed to be going to Nyngan this long weekend, but then the flood situation has put that on hold a couple of weeks, to let things get back to normal on the roads up that way).

If it's agreeable to you, great, let me know, if not, again, no worries, couldn't hurt to ask. Thankyou for your time.

thanks mate for your offer but it is now listed on ebay, if it doesnt sell i can send you a pm and ill discuss it with you further i appreciate your time cheers
