MB Engine with GPW head on eBay

Joe forwarded this engine for sale on eBay. Local pickup only (Ohio).

“Up for your consideration is a Willys L-134 engine ser # MB334904 . I bought it just in case I was going to assemble a WW2 jeep. This engine has the Military Standard oil filter, Crank start nut, Lower Pulley guards, WW2 primer fuel pump. It has a Gpw script oil pump, original water pump with no holes (civilian has heater ports). It also has the WW2 jeep steel radiator hose sections. Was told the brown bakelite distributor cap is rare. It appears that the head is a Gpw as you can see a Gp under the oil filter bracket. It will turn with a wrench on the crank start nut. With the prices on these going up This would make a good place to start for your jeep. If you priced a carb, intake/exhaust manifold, Distributor and so on you will see that this will make a good buy. This could be used also for the Ford Gpw”

Steve forwarded this ad. The motor is seized.

“This is a engine from a 1940 Willys Americar model 440, although I think it was last in a Willys Jeep because of the CJ2A motor mounts and oil pan. It has some unusually characteristics, like the head, dipstick, manifolds, carburetor etc..
IT DOES NOT RUN! It is seized from sitting. Make no mistake, this engine is for parts or rebuild only.

Nate’s Dual Carb Setup

• CATEGORIES: Builds, CJ-3A, Engine • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Nate’s simple reasoning for installing two carbs on his L-Head (I had two YF carbs and plenty of time) belies his good understanding of how why the carbs add more power (see his explanation in the thread comments). As usual, very nice work Nate!
