Default Any one got a site that sells v8's?

Does any one have an aussie site that sells used or new old school v8's like clevelands? The only one I can find is eagle autoparts but they're full blown race engines with no pricers.

I apologize, I thought that some one being kind enough to type a link with many selections of engines for sale would be more quicker and logical than putting it in the wanted section and waiting weeks to months for one to show up.

G'day XDaaron,

I'm pretty sure Eagles would have a pretty big range of second hand stuff as well. I always used to buy my stuff from them when I was racing although I haven't been there for years. I know their website doesn't really tell you much.
Maybe you could give them a call.
Another option is get yourself a copy of Just Parts magazine. It has heaps of ads for buisnesses selling the sort of stuff your looking for including their web addresses, if they have one.

Good Luck.

trading post, ebay, just parts, even flick through the yellow pages.... try some wreckers. Theres old V8's laying around everywhere! I went to TAFE with a guy who had 6 on his farm laying around doing nothing. 4 were 253ci Holden and 2 were 400ci Ford. Look hard enough and something will turn up mate. good luck.
