Details

I had my 1982 BJ40 engine rebuilt and in the process I bought a spare engine from Roma042987 several years back to get the camshaft. The motor was running when he shipped it to me, but it had a blown head gasket. Unfortunately, the camshaft didn’t fit, but that’s good news for you because this motor is still sitting at my mechanic’s shop in Williamsburg, VA. I can’t make any promises about the condition that it is in because I’m not sure if the machinist put the camshaft back in it and reassembled it when he realized it wouldn’t fit. But, you can’t beat the price!

Here is a video of it running when Roma had it:



Unfortunately, I’m now in Mexico, so I can’t snap any photos. Let me know if you want it and I’ll let you know where you can pick it up.

Okay, we want it! As you say, can’t beat the price. Always looking for any excuse to come back home anyhow! We could be there as soon as Thursday.

A couple of people have asked me. This is a B engine, not a 2B. I bought my BJ40 in Colombia and it came with a B engine from the factory, so I bought this B engine to scavenge from and didn’t need it. In fact, my BJ is a 1983, but the paperwork says 1982 because that’s when the box arrived in Cartagena. Don’t try to wrap your head around it, South American cruisers are their own breed.
 
Do you still have this engine and if so are you willing to remove parts off of it?
The engine is at my mechanic’s shop in Williamsburg, VA. I currently live in Mexico. You are welcome to call Josh Wick at Wick’s Rods & Kustoms and ask if he would remove parts but you would have to work out a price with him.


If nobody comes to get this, by the end of September I’m going to tell him he can get rid of it.
