Grey motor on the north the side of Brisbane - it is an EJ motor that has been in storage for 20 years

I have a reconditioned motor that I have spent less on than this one but you could be getting a bargain and with my luck I will be sucking lemons.

This one is down my way in Tassie - I am tempted to go snap it up but the project budget has run down a little lately - Bloody social life

Bids haven't started on this motor and gearbox so who knows where it will end up - pick up only Mooroolbark Vic
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Holden-Grey-Motor-/281935501372?hash=item41a4aa583c:g:urMAAOSwFNZWwDO0

Then there is this block which is well expensive but if you are desperate too rich for my money especially as the seller admits there was water in two pots.
Oh it is at Sydney somewhere

I'm guessing it's expensive because someone told him the block was special with no engine number. His claim is incorrect though. All NASCO new blocks whether for boats, cars or fork lifts were sold without engine numbers. If the motor was to go in a car then the owner was supposed to drop into the local cop shop to get it stamped (hence the VP and NP etc blocks)
Lots of owners didn't bother. ::)
I don't think there was a requirement for boats or fork lifts to get a number stamped, though I am not really sure on that detail. ???

I am a little confused with this seller as the headline - click bait says  
QuoteHolden 138 Grey and 186 Red engines
$100.00 Negotiable
There are 2 reds and a grey for sale $100 - each?  
The lot or is there a lot of negotiating to be had.
Could be worth checking out if you live in Brisbane or close because these are at the back of Toowoomba - just passed the airport - Cotwold Hills.
http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/cotswold-hills/engine-engine-parts-transmission/holden-138-grey-and-186-red-engines/1125402997

This seller says there is a grey and a red motor but I see two red motors not a red and grey, I could be wrong?  Port Sorell is on the north westerly coast of Tassie.  That account for the rust :)

This grey motor has been on Gummie for a while at $400 the with an alloy rocker cover could be good buying
(I did the math - $200 for rocker cover- $200 for head (Providing it isn't cracked ) crank say $100 bits and bobs another couple of hundred. but shipping it to Tassie from Hervey Bay)
