Used Yanmar 6LY Block with 5k hours engine or boat where never under water. Engine was pulled from head gasket failure as I wanted to have it checked. Block was sent for magna flux and no cracks where found, however cylinders walls are just over specified allowance for variance and i mean just over. My mechanic stated if you are hanging around 5 to 10 miles i would reuse this in a second. but my off shore fishing takes me over 100 miles out .He bought everything else (crank Pistons etc.) from me as it was in such good condition. Most of the main bearings are still on caps and in excellent condition for the hours and all caps are present for re-use So I just decided to go with new cummins engines in my boat instead. . want a new block? over $9k. you can have this one for a fraction of that..I have head as well no cracks in it either. can be negotiated in I coated the cylinder walls with grease and sprayed white lithium grease over everything which is why you see white in photos.

Skoda Octavia vRS breaks 200 mph at Bonneville
Tue, 16 Aug 2011Skoda Octavia vRS breaks 200mph at the Bonneville Salt Flats You can tell just how far Skoda has come from its days as makers of mobile skips when they can justify going out to play at the Bonneville Salt Flats with a Skoda Octavia vRS, just for the glow the outing will cast on its range. But they haven’t just gone to play, they’ve also achieved the quite remarkable feat of taking a modestly modified Octavia vRS to 202.15mph, which is going to do no harm whatsoever in drawing attention to the very appealing vRS cars in the Skoda range. To drag an extra 50mph plus out of Octavia vRS did necessitate a tweak or three, but nothing overly dramatic.
Rolls Royce Ghost EWB launched +video
Tue, 19 Apr 2011Rolls Royce Ghost EWB - a Chinese launch Really, you wouldn’t expect Rolls Royce to release something as common as a long wheelbase Ghost, would you? No, this Ghost is an extended wheelbase Ghost – the Rolls Royce Ghost EWB. When we reported back in December that the LWB Ghost was getting close – and the Ghost DHC and Ghost Coupe, for that matter – we’d half expected Rolls Royce might get a shake on and take the Ghost EWB to Geneva.
BMW M3 Matte Edition: China only
Tue, 29 Mar 2011BMW M3 Matte Edition - China's second limited edition M3 in a year It’s less than a year since China got it’s last BMW M3 special – the BMW M3 Tiger Edition – so we’re guessing it sold rather well as BMW has launched another limited edition M3 just for the Chinese market – the BMW M3 Matte Edition. It isn’t going to be horribly difficult to work out that the defining feature of the M3 Matte Edition is its paint job. It’s Matt Black.
