Hi List,
I sent the seller an email, asking what other options he had available as
far as engine rebuilds/upgrades go, and as it turns out, the seller is Ken
Morgan--He looked over my old '85 at one point (I didn't have the cash to
put in a new motor unfortunately) and I referred several friends here in
Denver to him a few years ago who got very solid work done on their Westies.
I think he moved away for a few years but I'm glad that he's back in
Denver...I might need his help very soon if the antifreeze stains are
telling me what I think they're telling me!
This was his response:
Hi Joe,
Yes, you have multiple options.... I can put you into a Remanufactured 1.9
Liter like what came in your unit for $1,500 and that includes shipping
anywhere in the continental U.S. -
You can also upgrade to a 2.1 Liter for $2,500, again that includes
shipping.... there are some cheaper engines on the market, I know, however
each of ours is hand built, one up, to ensure individual attention and all
have standard cranks.... there are some econo rebuilds available as well
from time to time but these are not typically built to run the "long haul"
There is no core charge but we are interested in your old engine depending
on its state...
Hope I have answered all your questions...
Thanks for the inquiry,
ken morgan

I think the big question would be, does anyone in Denver know who the heck
Eurocars Inc. is? They are the folks who supposedly have done the rebuild
on this engine. I am betting that I know who it is, but I want to see if
someone on the list can confirm my hypothesis.
Anyone in Denver know these folks or could check them out for us? Here is
their address from the auction:
Euro Cars Inc.
7667 E. Iliff Ave.
Unit G
Denver Co 80231
Thanks,

Just came across this on Ebay and wondered if anyone on the list can shed
more info on the builder and/or engine. Sweet! Claims to be a 2.2l with
115hp. ... and the thread continues.
