1969 - Orphans / 69 DZ 302 V1I15DZ
« on: January 08, 2015, 04:53:53 AM »
I have a 1969 DZ302 engine I am selling and would like to mate it up to the original car if possible.
VIN: V1I15DZ
Casting # 3932386
Cast Date: K118
I recently purchased a vehicle that had been sitting in a garage for 35 years with this engine installed in it.
The transmission is a 1969 Muncie M21.
The heads are 3991492 (2.02 1.60) Service Heads and have angle spark plugs.
I disassembled the engine, leaving the crank (1178), connecting rods, main caps (2482), .030 Forged Pistons (L2210A) (11.8 Compression Ratio with the 492 Heads), Crane Cam (510) still in tack.
The cylinders look good with cross honing marks still visible, and no ridges at top of cylinders, and after soaking with lubricant for a couple days, rotate freely.
Any feedback on validation and/or value, suggestions on how I can mate with original body, or interested buyers appreciated.
Thank you,
John
