2.8/3.1/3.4L Supplier

Would you buy good used parts from a V6 supplier (like me )

I have been debating on wether or not to be a V6 hound and offer to sell engine compartment parts. Parts offered:

Blocks
Heads
Intakes
Exhuasts
Fuel injection setups
Wiring harness's
ECM's
Complete's

Also offer the option to have the parts pre-machined, modified, or built complete.

Sound good?

No carpet, no crank j/k


Honestly, I think non-modified parts wouldnt sell. Offer modified parts at decent price and you would have some flow.

Keep 3.1/3.4 parts ready at hand, the 2.8 stuff doesnt move.


I would like to see a fully done up block like that link you sent me

I have the engine harness lying arond still, but I would reccomend using it for spare wiers, especially the injector wires, as the fire made them do crazy stuff. Maybe use some stugff after verifying continuity.

My wires are extra crispy from my engine fire along with my windshield wiper motor. No matter how much I cut and paste it, it keeps throwing codes. When I was running the car it would die with the MAF sensor plugged in but, would run fine (well not fine but better) without it.
