Hi,
Looking for an ea81 block and heads. Doesn't need to be running but id prefer it in at least ok condition. Can't see anything in the for sale section or gumtree. Anyone around Perth have one they'd be willing to let go?
Regards
Doug

Not only does Paul have a herd of EA81's he has a set of Fuel injected heads for a turbo or fuel injected motor. I just need to bring them back to Perth as I thought some one was going to buy them but that fell through.
