Wanted V6 to teach apprentice

Post by DieselBob »

Hey

Looking for a V6 engine.
As complete as possible.
Want to run on a stand so i can teach my 2nd year padawan engine theory.

Based in Toowoomba.

Tried EBay they start at $500.

You see the old commy's everywhere except when you want one.

If anyone knows where i could get one in the SE Queensland area let me know.

Just the thing to mow picket fences.

I'm looking to Delco the Kawasaki.

Long story kept short, I have an old z650 that is taking impossibly long to re-build (I think we're at the 12yrs mark, kids time,etc)

At one point it contained a Turbocharged 750 engine. (GPz750turbo) very awesome and went like a zyrtec. But rat style wasn't in fashion then. So rebuild.

Finally there is some progress happening, I painted the frame yesterday and some missing parts have arrived. yay.

Now the good bit- these turbo kwaka engines are EFI.. But its an ancient unit, and while it does still work- it may be on borrowed time.

For the good of the world why not put a delco on the sucker, and maybe sell a kit on ebay. A shortened '808 harness and a 2bar sensor.

The trigger plate is obviously one of the few hurdles to cross.

That is mad cool.

I can see how you've run a camira module for the ignition off the original pickup.

Without a distributor how do I run two dual coils like most jap 4 cylinder bike engines from a delco?

Will search.
