Franking motor?
I found this on Craigslist for sale. Did they use half of a hi po block. It has xri cowl. Thanks

Also says it's a 91. Shouldn't it be 1 piece heads?

The '91 I had, had 1 piece.
Speed cost money. How fast you wanna go?
I have done so much with so little for so long, I can now do the impossible with nothing!

Wrong heads and fuel pump. With an xri cowl on a carb motor that thing could be just about anything. Might be a great runner or an outstanding anchor.

That's what I was thinking. Can you tell if that's back half of a hi po motor? (Promax,etc)

Could be a Bridgeport block or old mod Bp block. 2 pics heads would makes sense. Carb front half and 40 amp electrics it looks like

looks like everything around the block is just standard stuff with old 2pc heads. Block more likely a bridgeport and that probably has a few steel sleeve replacements from having busted bridges so ya gotta hope he has the correct rings for the correct cylinders in there.
If I don't ask any questions, I'll never learn anything.

The best motors are Frankensteins. Normally you would upgrade the external parts on a block like that.
