people will say u can pick them up a dohc for $80 or some shit like that but thats a once in a lifetime opportunity and they probably bought it off someone who dont know about dohc's. ive got a dohc injected rebuilt which i wanna sell. it hasnt even been run in yet.

yeh doch is seriuos its a good deal, the dude who brought a doch 1800 4 $80 works at the wreckers he got it from, and it needs a complete rebuild as its all in peices, if i had the money i would buy your engine cause it would b good power and reliable.

i'm the dude that bought the g180 dohc motor for $80, it wasn't in peices when i got, it would have run, i just thought i might as well rebuild cause it is out of the car. i got the gearbox, alternator, starter, loom, ram tubes, all efi gear, exuast manifolds, distributer, air flow meter and mounts. i was looking to turbo this motor, but it is way to dificult to get parts for. u have to up grase oil pump fuel pump pistons, redo all your crank and bearing, not to mention you have to find some one that can make manifolds to suit the turbo. i just think i will rebuild the engine with a little work to it to make it put out about 150hp but thats it. it will easy beat the stock gemi motor, email me if u want 2 know any more. chrisamez26@hotmail.com
