Mgtc Mg Tc Engine Block With Main Caps on 2040-parts.com
Redding, California, US
Original MGTC engine block. The bores measure between 2.66 and 2.67. I don't see any problems with this except for the bottom of number 3 on the cam side is broken. Common in the T series engines. This could be sleeved and all would be right with the world. The id tag was missing when I got this block. I think that this may also work for TB/MGTB, but if you have one you would know better. MGTA was very different and this will not work. TD and TF are, while looking very similar are slightly different. In case you can't make out the casting numbers/letters they are; 24146 3A 39 11KS. It is missing one of the main cap nuts. Still has most of the oil galley plugs and the dummy shaft for the oil pump, but it may need to be replaced. Also, to ship this I will need to make a crate, so....add $50 for crate supplies, tweezers, and band aids. IF, you wanted, you could ship me an empty crate and I will be happy to place the engine block in there and split the empty crate shipping to me! Of course, you can always pick it up here, wait for me to get to Southern California the first week of June. I am occasionally in the SF Bay Area and Sacramento areas, so I could bring it along if you are in those areas. I will even be in Portland before the end of Summer. Too heavy to ship out of the country unless you have a freight forwarder. Please see my other auctions for more British/German/Italian car and motorcycle parts. I will combine shipping when it is feasible.
** A word about shipping/parts
Recently I had 2 packages show up oversea with postage due. Even though I paid all the required postage on my end. This is not my fault. I pay what the post office tells me to pay. While this is isolated, it has happened more than once now. Earlier in the week when I was in the post office shipping a box (almost $155) I was told that there may be more postage due when it gets there. Again, I do not have any control over this.
I also don't have control over transit time or the amount of time customs takes either in the US or in your country when it arrives.
I make the shipping quotes the closest that I can given the item is not boxed until the auction is over. In cases where I under-estimate the shipping cost and it is $5 or less, I pay it. In cases where I over-estimate shipping cost and I charged you more than $5 over shipping cost I refund you difference. In any case I try to ship the next day after the item is paid for. If the item is larger or requires crating or making a custom box or even buying a box it may take a few more days to get it shipped.
I do have control over packaging and the item description. I package it to make it through the handling process of the various shipping companies. I have not had anything damaged in shipping in a long time. I have had stuff lost, but not damaged.
If you feel I have not described something properly, please let me know. I ultimately want you to be happy with the part/parts. If you are not, tell me first. I really am easy to deal with. If you want to talk to me, just ask for my phone number and remember I live on the West Coast for calling times.

Autoweek in review: What you may have missed
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Rain fell all week at One Autoweek Tower, and the breaking news didn't let up, either. Things started out busy enough on Monday with Bugatti losing its top-speed record and the trailer of Ron Howard's new film, “Rush,” hitting the Web. On Tuesday we paid homage to Distracted Driving month by recounting the touching story of a Kansas State Trooper who has witnessed a variety of tragic scenes -- many resulting from distracted driving.

Citroen C3 e-HDi 70 Airdream EGS VTR+ emits just 87g/km CO2
Tue, 08 Nov 2011Citroen C3 e-HDi 70 Airdream EGS VTR+ emits just 87g/km You do have to wonder sometimes just how much we actually need expensive technology like hybrid powertrains and EVs when cars with conventional ICE engines can manage ridiculous mpg and emit little Co2- cars like the Citroen C3 e-HDi 70 Airdream EGS VTR+. Citroen has announced that their super-frugal C3 with a ridiculously long name (which fortunately doesn’t seem to be painted on the boot lid) and which was first seen at the Frankfurt Motor Show back in September, is now on sale in the UK. The figures for the C3 e-HDI really are quite remarkable.
