Hi All,
I bought some engine parts this week and I have the following bare engine block for sale as it is surplus to requirements:
Block date code: 7A13 (1967 Jan 13th)
Block number: 3020E6015 (the original first 4 number have been ground off and re-stamped with: 3020 which I believe correct/ what Lotus done at the time)
Engine number: LP8162LBA
Bell housing end stamped with: LB & PP
Bores: +30 & will only require a very light hone due to storage (not had liners fitted & walls do seem very thick)
Caps: all main caps matching and correct for period
This is a genuine Lotus picked block without the L cast on it which I believe to be correct for the period, so I would suspect it was fitted to an early MK2 L/C, Elan, Europa etc.
Overall I would described it as a very good block and with a light hone & a repaint it would be ready to use to rebuild a worn or incorrect block you have fitted in your car.
For any further questions or pictures please do not hesitate to contact me via PM
I am based in central Scotland but I can put it on a pallet if you organise your own courier
Open to sensible offers
