As some of you might remember back in June of 2004 my 1994 Voyager company minivan broke down while enroute to SDAC-14. Unfortunately this forced me to eliminate my appearance at the convention & the Carlisle show.
Upon a closer look the engine damage was much more serious than I expected. In addition to blowing the 2 year old head gasket I discovered large chunks of a broken rod and other internals sitting in my oil pan. It took me by surprise since it was well maintained and has always had good oil pressure. Since a decent remanufactured engine is out of my price range for the time being I'd like to pick up and install a reliable used engine to get me back up and running. To be more specific I'm looking for a late model (1992-95 preferred) non-turbo 2.5 engine that's been well cared for (or recently had a good rebuild) and has got plenty of life left within it. If somebody even has a uninstalled crate motor sitting around that they wouldn't mind making a deal on I'd love to hear from them. Currently I'm working on finding one on a local level (including buying a whole car for parts) but I just don't want to get screwed from buying a "pre-pulled" motor that I have to spend all my time installing only to find out it runs poorly. Having a so called warranty on it is worthless if I have to uninstall it all over again. There's alot of great people here on the mailing list that have helped me in the past and someone out there may have just what I need. If my current efforts including locating a running accident damaged (or rusted) car don't come through I'm considering all options including having one shipped to me in north Florida. I'm familiar with working with air freight companies and I can get a decent deal. If someone has something available, let me know. I'd like to get the company minivan back on the road for daily use for a while before the rigors of long distance driving to car shows. Thanks again.
