Free to a Good Home

I have two 239ci Y-blocks (from 54 F100s) that I just don't need any more! Free to a good home. One is a running engine that was removed about 6 years ago - good runner with a little smoking. The other is a block that was rebuilt many years ago and needs to be taken apart and cleaned up. Let me know if your interested!

Shoot, i would love to have them, but shipping would be a killer....and I don't have an urgent need, but it would be nice to have spare parts for my engine.

Hopefully you will find someone close by that can use them.

Shipped a 700 lb diesel engine last summer through 'engineshipping.com'. From Georgia to Washington State. Yellow freight quoted me 1450.00, So I googled 'shipping an engine'. Got it here (over 3000 miles) for 400.00. It arrived on a UPS freight semi. The broker found a vacant spot for it.

I just ordered a grain mill from Ohio. The manufacturers shipper was going to charge $390. I used the link Bob put up about Fastenal and they are shipping it for $175.

I would love to have those in my garage in Kentucky.....but the shipping would kill me....throw them east and I'll see if I can catch them...lol. Seriously though, I'm getting my 239 y-block rebuilt, but would love to have them.

Bessie is in Temecula, California, you can see it up in the top right corner - the same place that you have your location listed.

Was using the mobile app, some reason it wasn't listing the location.

Hey Bessie, I pmed you, but my computer is being a jerk, so I don't know if it went through. I am not to far from you, and would be willing to pick those blocks up, if they are still available.
