I have a F54 turbo block for sale in Beaverton, OR. Previous owner told me it was taken from a totaled 280zx turbo with about 75K. After taking the block apart, I can beleive it!!!!!! All standard bearings and pistons. Bottom end is in almost perfect condition.

Perfect for your STROKER build or Hybrid TURBO. Block has never been rebuilt.

I do not have the head or wireing harness for this motor, only the complete bottom end. At this moment, motor is dissasembled.

I will include turbo oil pan, crank, rods, pistons, and other parts associated with the bottom end

Must make room for my other projects, my loss your gain

75,000 miles? With hone marks? Interesting. Because a hundred other people will click on this in the future to see how to price their parts, here's some value points:

$150: An F54 NON-TURBO lower end with 75,000 original miles out of a running car that has NOT BEEN TAKEN APART.

$100: An F54 TURBO lower end with 75,000 original miles out of a running car that has NOT BEEN TAKEN APART.

$0-$50: An F54 TURBO or N/A with 75,000 or a jillion miles on it that HAS been taken apart. Ya gotta put new bearings in it; ya gotta turn the crank; ya gotta re-ring and therefore hone and it will be out slightly so ya gotta bore a bit and buy new flattops and............................

75k is what the previous owner had told me. The bottom end is in great condition, it has just been sitting for a bit. Whenever I come across a motor like this, I will take it apart anyways to make sure everything is nice and clean. A bit of cleaning, some new parts, and definatly a head, this motor should be great!!! I have not measured anything in this motor, so I could be wrong:stupid: , but form the looks of it, everything just needs a good cleaning. I just want to get what I paid for this, otherwise I will keep it and build it later on. Money is short right now and I thought this might help.

Thanks for the feedback

Just for comparrison...I bought a running 280ZX non-turbo engine (F54 block and P79 head) last year from a guy doing a V8 swap. Engine was complete from oil pan to valve cover including alternator, AC pump, water pump, etc, etc, etc and only cost $150.

There's a guy in CA right now with an F54 lower end also for sale asking $80 I believe, but it has already been machined and just needs re-assembled.

Everything has been done at a school shop using the correct tools. When

I first began the project I had a complete l28et motor that I was going

to rebuild and do a little modifications like porting and pollishing,

regrinding the 3 angle vavle jobs, replacing oem parts with aftermarket

performance parts, etc... I was almost done with the project and was

ready to drop it into my car until my car was sold by my dad. Now I

don't have anything to put it in so I sold it as parts because no one

wanted to buy a complete rebuild motor for the price I was asking for.

Therefore I am selling pieces by pieces ofthe motor. Soorry for the long

story, anyways you can reply back to me at sofrshsoclnpinoi@tmail.com
