The engine looks brand new. It is georgous.

[Alfadog]

Wow Jim it really does look brand new doesnt it. I think it would suit my car nicely... Anyone want to guess the final bid price??

[1GENZED]

It looks like its been rebuilt.

Its so clean.

Do you guys know if it would even fit in an hls30

I know the front cross member and the bell housing were different, but would there be any interference issues with the controls ie master cylinders, being on the left. I'm not sure but I think I read some where that the engine was tilted in the opposite direction then the L**.

I wounder if there where any left hand drive cars sold in europe, or maybe another market, with the s20 engine.

Does anybody know if there has ever been a succesfull hls30 conversion.

The oil cap is missing.

Thanks for the heads-up, Jim. Nothing like a serious drool on Sunday morning!

Would make a bloody expensive coffee table.

This is a re-list I think. I didn't see what it went up to last time without meeting its reserve, but it probably won't sell on Yahoo without a lot of direct contact in the background ( he says it is "rebuilt" - but that covers a whole host of possibilities ).

Ahmed,

Actually I don't think the brake and clutch master cylinders on an LHD shell would interfere with the S20 exhaust manifold all that much, if at all - but the steering shaft would be a factor. It would require a custom manifold to avoid the LHD shaft. A smaller battery, and battery tray mods, might be needed to clear the induction side ( esp if using the original S20-type air box ).

I've certainly not heard of an S20 in an LHD S30 body ( there were no official LHD S20-engined models of Z or Skyline sold to the general public ), but I have heard tell of at least one S20 engine being in the USA.

Be aware that - as a 'Skyline' engine rather than a 432 engine - the oil pan on this Yahoo auction engine will not fit into an S30 body. The 432-type sump, oil pickup and pre-filter and the 432 dip-stick location would need to be used.
