strotter Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I actually took an ad out in the local paper offering the motor/trans "running well, free to a good home". Got several calls, but each of them wanted me to do something heinous - one guy wanted me to deliver it to him, another wanted me to set it up so he could hear it run. Ended up taking it to the dump, paying an extra fee 'cause it was toxic or something. Sigh. I suppose no good deed goes unpunished. W/ regard to the Fiat, I'm surprised the L24 fit into the engine bay - those things are fairly tight with the I4, no less an I6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbk240z Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 that the L motors make excellent boat anchors. I could not give away the one I had either, even with dual 2 barrel Webers! It still sits at the rear of my step Dad's property, 5 years now. It did make a really nice home for various insects, ants, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelman Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I tried giving one away as well complete with the transmission. Ended up taking it the local metal recycler. Wheelman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
