Seems like a great price. Too bad it’s not nearby (NewEngland).

3.9liters.... can you imagine how much torque this must have?

I contacted the seller but sadly he has no additional info on the engine.

Seller said:
You have all the details in the description, this was my brother engine for a project that didn't came trough.

I have a contact within about one hour of this engine, he is a tractor guy but understands engines and speaks Welsh which might be very helpful. Contacted me if you want to hire him to take a look.

Gotta love this forum. For those who don’t know, a proper welsh speaker can be hard to find even in some parts of Wales!

and no, Welsh language is NOTHING like English at all.

I made contact with the seller for Rouge. If you want my view please send me a pm.

I suppose that I am splitting hairs, but I’m not sure how you get to 3.9L with 70’s parts. I presume that it is a 70’s M90 block with an S38B38 crankshaft. Maybe I’m missing something, not sure.
