    where can i find a cheap, reliable deal for both? prefer the 22r with a 5spd but would be open to a 22r/20r engine with the same tranny

    I am working on a rebuild and most likely have an extra 5spd that I would be willing to part with. But, where are you located?

    i dont have a spare engine, unless you want one that needs to be rebuilt. its not currently running. i cannot make any promises with the engine. however, i do have a 5 spd tranny that i know is in good condition, i am not sure about the mileage exactly, i believe in the 250k range. however, it is in really good condition. shipping prices i would have to check on based on your interest...let me know

    The engine does not have the air filter housing for the carberator, but i believe that everything else is there. Also, i know that there is no compression in the third cylinder, but not sure why. Not trying to discourage, but being honest about its condition. It was running just fine three months ago until a water leak happened when timing chain rubbed a whole in the timing chain cover. As far as the transmission goes, it is bold on ready to go. You could take them both for 200 or 100 a piece. Hows that sound to you? I also have a radiator that ill throw in for 50 if you want the other two.

    if it helps at all, the motor is actually three hours south of me in greenville, sc, that would make it closer to you and maybe to your uncle, we would have to pull the motor as well, which has not happened yet...pics coming in next couple days

    less work/time/hassle to swap in an already working engine than to diagnose and rebuild the other one
