I am replacing my 1968 Firebird OHC 6 Sprint engine sometime in the coming months. I have no desire to keep the engine and wish to sell it. It is original to my car. It is a running engine. It has an estimated 165K miles. Though it runs and has decent power, it is in need of a rebuild. I drive the car every day or so.

Everything I remove will be included in the sale. Pretty much everything from the transmission forward. If it's not being used on my new engine I don't need or want it. For now I'm planning on reusing the Saginaw 3-speed transmission. Plans call for a 4-speed swap. The 3-speed may or may not be included.

I am posting this to gauge interest as well as help interested buyers plan ahead. I WILL NOT part out anything. It's all or nothing. The buyer will need to pick up the engine. I can not ship it. I just don't have the means to do so. Price is undetermined. Projected availability is September/October 2014. The engine is located in the Philadelphia area.

I'd be interested but need to know what all is included? Does it have a complete PS system or is it Manual? AC or not?
Doubt I can pick it up, too far to drive, but I could arrange a pick up.

ho428, Power steering? Yes and no. My car is manual steering. Except for the steering box and pitman arm, I bought the accessory package off a Tempest; PS pump, alternator with double groove pulley, double groove fan pulley, all the brackets, bolts, belts and PS lines. I bought everything to have it, not necessarily to reuse everything. I haven't installed any of this, but this would be included.

My car does not have AC.

I'm putting in a SBC so I'm replacing everything; engine frame mounts, clutch linkage, bellhousing, flywheel, etc. This will be a complete package. If I get my 4-speed in time, it'll include the 3-speed and shifter too. If one wants to put this into another Firebird, there won't be much you'll have to buy elsewhere.

The OHC 6 is plenty for me, but I can't rebuild it and accessorize it with multiple choices from multiple sources like I can a SBC. Twenty years from now when I hand this car down to my sons, this problem will only be worse. I prefer the Chevy mechanicals, but the Firebird is far better looking. I'll have the best of both worlds.

What's your asking price?

Undetermined at this time. I'll pin this down after I pull the engine. It'll be one price for everything. I hope to include the transmission. My SBC engine was delivered today. The swap is a mid to late summer project.

I posted under Rants just to let people know and generate some interest. For someone wanting a Sprint OHC 6, this package will be an excellent starting point.
