Indeed.

I'd have to say that I would be making arrangements ASAP, if I had the funds available. Unfortunately, I'm not in that position though. The trans would also be good as a spare.

It should keep someone's 6.9 going for a long time.

Quick Update...

My 'new' M100 should hopefully be in Canberra by middle November.
Project should hopefully be finished by New Year.

Thanks Bill for finding this one!! Big ups for the report and pics too. ;)

Thanks for the positive messages all. It hit's the road on Monday (was a slight delay in separating the engine / gearbox for freight) and should hopefully arrive and be installed just in time for me to wrap it and give it to myself for christmas. :)

Thanks again for all your help too Bill, very much appreciated.

In the case of a 6.9 drivetrain, it may be easier to move the tree over the present than the other way around.

PS: Congrats

PPS: Please take lots of photos of the engine before it gets installed in anything, so gumbys like me can see where all the tubes go. :)

Yeah, it takes ages to grind the bell housings away from them blocks :p:D

I still reckon you should put it on a pedestal for display or beneath a glass topped coffee table.:cool: Phenomenal find WGB.

HAhah.. yep, good call. Will just re-locate the tree.
And don't stress, when it gets here, you can come and see it in the flesh before it goes in. But there'll also be plenty of pics. ;)

Oscar, i'm guessing you've grinded a few of those bell housings before?
Instead of a glass topped coffee table, I wanted to use it as a bedside table so I could wake up to it every morning.. but the mrs wouldn't let me. :eek: :D

Thanks Benz-Boy. Should be fine. After it's installed, it will be 'rapped' though. ;)
