    Alittle better ,the first time looked like a 2 year old typed it .Now it looks like a 5 year old typed it .

    But I think your asking what's the Value of your motor ?

    With needing to have Piston rings replace,which has to be Honed,Hot tanked,and all new bearings and the Head needs to be shaved again an all new gaskets!

    I would say a fair an honest Value is 50-100 bucks tops

    I can get Z6 running for 150


    So a NON Vtec needing rebuilt isnt going to bring you top dollar!

    It's a little better. To answer your question, if the engine runs good and doesn't have any major problems, you should be able to get a few hundred dollars for it...

    sorry man. I've been up for to long. Thanks for calling me a 2 and 5 year old real nice. The head doesn't need to shaved everytime it comes off. All you have to do is get something flat and sand the block and head evenly to made a good seal. right or wrong

    To be honest if I was to buy this which I am not. I would go threw it from head to toe before installing this in my car knowing something was wrong from the Get Go.I would send the head off to have it Decked an Checked an cleaned, same for the block I would get it MagnaFluxed and X rayed and cleaned an honed. Then I would have the Rods checked and crank.Once that is all done I would do all new gaskets by all this time an money I would be better off buying a Used Z6/ZC running without any issues for 150 bucks...


    Your motor will never come close getting a few hundred dollars like the EFALLMOTOR guy said, even with your problems you want see more then 100 bucks

    So that would make my dad, a master mechanic, a dumbass. He has worked for Ford, Chevy and Honda, since you were in diapers. Look you are making a big deal of nothing. You do not know who I am as a person. I let people know when stuff is broken on ANYTHING and EVERYTHING I sell. I am not going to cheat or lie about it because it would be stupid to. You are 27 and fighting over something childish. I might be wrong about the reason why the oil is burning but there is nothing else wrong with the car. Unless the dude I bought it from on here lied to me about how long he drove it with a blown head. Am I still a 2 year old?

    "I mean i could be an ass and not tell people that there is something wrong with it." Re-read. There is a big difference between COULD and WOULD.

    But did you say that you could but wouldnt?


    Anyway The timing will NOT make it burn oil I dont care who you think your dad is, If the timing was so far off it wouldnt even run an idle right, being a tooth off isnt going to make it burn oil ...I am not NEW to this by all means

    this sounds like a Old man, young son would say!

    Not ASE by all means . I think your dad has lied to you saying he knows what the hell he is saying to you .

    Ask him if he can put a Heater core in a 63 beetle too please

    There is no such thing as a heater core for a 63 beetle. It ran off the exhaust manifold. They do not have water so they do not have a heater core. Until the jettas came out they put heater cores on them since the had water in them.

    Like I said, there could be a chance but I do not want to take the motor apart before I check the timing.

    If you know so much. What is the difference between a 74 mustang and a 74 capri 2000 engine? Why does one have 10 more HP over the other?

    thank you



    I gave you honest answers to your question after I read your question about 300 times trying to understand what the hell you wanted to ask....

    So my job is done here!
    Go check that timing,air in the spare tire,blinker fluid and you will be set for another 10 miles before your motor blows up...best of luck!

    The capri had a one tooth advance over the mustang. Since you did not answer you do not know all what you say you do. So do not bad mouth me or my father.

    Mustang an a Honda are two different cars that can't be compared too!


    and many people almost all can Vouche an knows me , will tell you I do know what I am talking about!

    If you don't want to be bad mouth , or your dad don't say anything that will make you two look stupid like saying the timing off in a honda will make it burn oil, then you might not get your feelings hurt.

    This is a car forum an 90% of the members knows about there hondas an imports and do more research then you do , you havent been on IA as most others so don't try to come off that you know more then some off us that do and is trying to help and telling you , what to do or try...I know you will be wasting your time, and by the sound of it I don't think you should be checking the timing , you and your dad might make it worse. BTW this isnt like a Mustang
