Dino Engine Project

This seems cool, worth a look!

If you look around there are quite a few 2.0L engines out there. A lot of early coupes were parted out.

 

Only Fiat Dino, no Ferrari Dino engines ;-)

Well, without the oil pan, they all are Dino engines... and 206

 

Correct, but an original 206 engine is hard to find, esp. with the corresponding gearbox

 

You are extremely right Volkmar

I would dare say that the gearbox with the mechanical oil pump, is oh so difficult to find

 

Whatever ...

 

You can tell this is a Series one by the air cleaner. Has the external choke. That aircleaner, even in that condition, is worth at least $1500.

Its at 2600 now.Carbs, distributor, intake, exhaust manifold, radiator (unobtainium) etc...If it goes for less than $3500 its a steal.

Don't poo poo the Fiat Dino! Owners include Gordon Murray, Ian Tyrrell, Jim Glickenhaus, and me.

 

$15K. More or less, all of these engines end around that valuation. The buyer is an avid collector.

Best way to buy an engine: OPEN

 

Wow I'm shocked. I looked just before it ended and it was $3800. 15K seems a bit overpriced but I've seen someone try to sell just a set of carbs for $10K.

 

Mayor, the usual story, 2 guys, tooth and nail....result 15K

 

Comes down to ‘find another one’, they don’t come up often.

 

True, a rare motor....
