bergs Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 (edited) I have a free EJ255 short block that has rod knock and some cylinder scoring on #4. Everything that is needed to install a short block is absent from this one....sensors, oil pickup, pan, etc. This engine was running prior to removal. Rod knock was apparent from 2300 rpm up. Not blown but certainly not happy. Price is exactly $0.00 unless there is unreasonable effort or cost incurred on my end.

jhough77 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Throwing my hat in the ring - I would also pick it up if unclemat is unable/unwilling to for any reason. Count me as second on the list if you can! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I am not in line! I was just asking for clarification for the benefit of other folks (05-06 EJ257 vs 07+ EJ255) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergs Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 This engine is all packed up in the same crate the replacement SB arrived in. Point is, it's being kept clean and out of the elements. jhough - PM me and let's discuss arrangements. I can help with some of the distance as I am regularly in the Nashua area.

SAABaruu Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Im hoping you loosened the piston ring gap a bit on the new sb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergs Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share Posted March 7, 2020 Still have this thing. I, for some reason, cannot bring myself to launch this into a dumpster. Not sure why but it's still in a crate in my shed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rs2.5-3.0 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Would you be willing to ship? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergs Posted March 23, 2020 Author Share Posted March 23, 2020 My mistake folks, the scoring is in Cyl 4. I am editing the first post to reflect this. Scotty - Pics sent. I was not able to measure the depth of the features. I tried impacting some clay an measuring the height with verniers but the scores are too shallow to measure using this method. rs2.5-3.0 - Yes however there will be costs on your end for this.

bergs Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 Have some time so here's a pic of the cyl 4 scoring. I was unable to get a reliable measurement of the score depths. As I stated to Scottydunno, I'd be surprised if they were deeper than .01" anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RecklessWOT Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 (edited) I'm only a few minutes outside concord myself, I could probably come grab it this weekend. Though I'll need to read up on what's different from my '05. Looking to rebuild mine/start a build but want to be able to keep driving in the meantime, so this could be great Edited May 1, 2020 by RecklessWOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
