For sale: Ford Lehman Engine. This engine went into the shop to have a
bushing replaced in #6 cylinder. I foolishly asked if anything else should
be done at the same time. Before I knew it, the engine was completely apart.
The mechanic's estimate just to put it together exceeded the cost of a new
engine from Bob Smith. Expensive mechanic. Stupid me. Probably smart
mechanic. If you can, or want to learn to assemble an engine, this is the
project for you! Engine had about 3000 hours, so it's young by Bob Smith's
criteria! Make an offer.
