I know somebody who will probably be getting rid of an 88 NA motor. It runs pretty well.

Is it compleate? Keep me informed, while the engine in the car now is 100% compleate, I dont want to be dicking with putting one together, and if the price is right, Ill get the car running.

Also, it would be nice to know what mods you got.

Do you still need a motor?[/quote]

haha, after almost a week I decided to check the kills section. Yes i need a motor, but im being kinda **** and cheap about it. i just dont want any motor. And it has to be series 5 N/A and below 500 bucks unless its a complete motor(intake, manifolds, harness, ecu), everything needed to just drop it in case the date for the BBQ draws near.

if you know anything let me know. I was thinking about just getting any running 13B, but i really want a series 5. I prob can get a whole 88 rx7, running(last time I checked) with around 100k miles, for like 300 - 400 bucks.

The idea of going turbo is floating around in my head, but i doubt it will happen.

thanks

I may also be selling my motor, but I'm going to install it first to give test drives.

Traceb, the car I "need" the motor for is a spare convertible I have, so its not super important, but if a good deal comes up, I would like to get the car running again so I can perhaps paint it, clean it up, and god forbid perhaps make some money for my house-buying fund, lol. Jim- youre talking about YOUR motor are you??? Im guessing perhaps the motor that came out of your car? hehe- you can test it in my other car if you want.
