Another D24T gets saved!

[EvoStevo]

So I finally pulled that D24T in the junkyard. Don't know a whole lot about it yet, but it looks ok. It has 244K miles on it, turns pretty smoothly by hand, has a two-notch fiber head gasket and supposedly has a leaky injector pump. I ended up paying $258 out the door for it (or less than a dollar for every 1000 miles on the clock, lol). I'm excited that I have it in my possession now, but the hard part is yet to come. Now for a lot more reading on how to tear into this sucker and build it right. Thanks to all those who offered advice!

Cool man, Did you get the D24T bell housing from that car?

[EvoStevo]

They wanted too much for it. I think they quoted me something like $45. If somebody wants it and they're willing to pay that plus shipping, I can go back and pull it. I won't have the chance to get out there for at least another week though so no guarantees it'll still be there.

Oh Just in case anybody cares.
D24T at the pick n pull.
I took the pump, Somebody cut the timing belt.
Everything else is there. 138k on it. Perhaps a new head gasket is needed? and timing belt. I didn't grab it because I need to stop spending money at the damned junkyard. especially when I don't have any money. I'd say that it will be there another couple weeks Maybe a month before they smash it.

Well, I think last week that D24T I just mentioned did get smashed...

I wish I could have saved it. Just don't have the money/time.
