Gearbox with a day left to auction @ Rochedale South,

I think your right. EJ had that style box but a different bell houseing for the rear engine mounts and a different extension housing. You can still use them if you swap that over. Not a bad price $25/each
Here is an ej bell housing

Yeah GreyFC the one that came with my EK ute project is an EJ and I found out the difference between EJ and EH is because the EJ is still powered by a mighty grey and does not have a rear mount on the gearbox cross member. The ones in the above photo have rear mounts.
So as you say they could be good buying if your Fe Fc has a red motor on board.

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.

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)

Notice the first one has basically fallen / rusted through the bottom of the front suspension into the ground, even the remains of the K frames are still there where they have rusted off the bottom of the car. Even the steering column has basically rusted away. How bad must the rest of the car been?
The second one looks like the car was rolled over and the engine was unbolted and dropped onto the ground. Rocker cover is punched in, carb is broken, oil filter is broken (shame)

Seller says:
QuoteThis is a Holden 138 Grey Motor that came out for the EJ Holden.
The condition is unknown, however it is not seized and can turn over by hand.
It would be great for a restoration project.
At the other end we have an FJ FX motor out west - or s it as the seller does not know.
QuoteOut of my FX Holden is the grey motor we think its a 132 but could be 138. We do know it was a Repco exchange motor believed to be from a FC Holden. Doesn't turn over been the car since early 1960's sold in as is condition as pictured
