Recently bought/ordered three sets from Busso last month (still waiting on delivery) when they were on sale for 850 Euros. Now they are 1150, but email they sent says after New Year, they will be 1700 Euros...
I have pre-77 engines, but all seized except one & require disassembly. Strip down for cases $175. Complete seized engines $300 & non-seized $375 (no case damage). Latter two will need rebuilding. Would offer to rebuild for you (top end our complete) but working on a build for a friend now then...
what year? 77/78's are different than 69-76 ( some internals different too). where are you? I am in Texas & have numerous seized engines & several 77/78 cases I just disassembled.
