Bosch for a 2004 disco

Anyone have a 4.6 block for sale..Rebuilt my current motor, new cam and bearings. 200 miles later the cam is locked up and has to come apart again.

any help or leads will be welcome.

Thanks in advance, David

 

Call Scotty at So Cal Used Rover parts (socalusedroverparts.com). He is sourcing blocks for a guy in Missouri for rebuilds - should be able to help you out at a fair price.

 

I have a 4.6 block that needs to be rebuilt. I have asked around where I am at and no has done one before so I do not trust any of them yet. I assume you are looking for a new or already rebuilt block right?

 

Rob - if you are not in a hurry I can give you a contact who will rebuild your block. I think he has at least 2 or 3 blocks on the slate already, so there would be a wait. But he'll take the work and can offer some options like Crower cams and such.

You could ship it to him or exchange for another.

 

Chris- I am not in a hurry. I expect another 100K out of the one I have now. I just want it done in case I need it. I am trying to keep my wife from forcing me to sell it right now since I have four cars.

Thanks Chris, I will contact him soon and see what he has going on.

 

No problem Rob. I gave him a heads up you might be getting in contact with him.

His current engine build is pretty cool, looks like he'll be able to choke a few more ponies out of the 4.6 with the cam upgrade. When my 4.0 bites it, I'll be switching to one of his rebuilt 4.6's.

 

I will contact him and see what he says as far as pricing. I just started toying around with a friend in England who has just picked up a wrecked Diesel P38 and is parting it out. I may try to go that direction if the importing is not all that expensive.
