HELP NEEDED! Calling out to my oldest Zook buds...

Yankee Tim · #1 04-24-2008, 11:37 AM

I desperately need a block locating dowel pin. One of the two that go between the block and tranny, and bolts go thru them. This is for a 1.6L 16V motor with a 4spd tranny, but I think all 1.3L and 1.6L motors use the same part.

Dealer may take 2 weeks (back order, believe it or not). The motor is swinging from the hoist ready to go in, but I guess I lost one of the dowels at the machine shop, or the transit to/from there. In either case, I need to get this motor in before I leave for work for 2 weeks.

Shannon i& I are desparate as we currently have only one good running auto (everything else pooped the sheets at the same time), and I can't leave wifely and infant out here in the sticks without a running auto.

if you have one of these, please help me. I need it to be expresses mailed (USPS delivers on Saturday) and I will provide prompt money to you via PAYPAL, check, money order or pound of flesh. If you need the ones you have now for a future build, I can buy the one from the dealer and replace what you have.

Please help us out.

p.s. if you have a good, unbroken 16v timing cover as well, I could use that too. Will pay fast.

Thanks everyone. Motor is in and running, well I made add. Once I get the AC and PS hooked back up, and do the 15mins of break-in, I get to road it for the first time since, well, last fall?

You should have called me I have made them before. I just needed the measurements.

Dude, didn't even think of that. I just figured someone had to have an shot block around somewhere.

Thanks for the offer.
