[TR] Scrap those engine parts?

[Jim Henningsen]

Please don't scrap those parts.  They don't make blocks anymore and I
recently had one crack.  Find a local Triumph club,  post on craigslist even
if free.  They need to go to a home that will use them rather than scrap
metal.  

Just my two cents

Well if you lived in Texas I'd say DONT DO IT as I certainly would be
interested!  Ebay for big parts I think is hit and miss just because of the
shipping issue.  But rebuildable heads/blocks/cranks are surely not scap
feed.  Craigslist local ad might work if you can guard against all the
scammers.

I looked to see what TR6 crankshafts sold for on ebay - none are listed. 

After looking at what has actually sold I have come to the conclusion that I
should just scrap the head, block and crank. The cam MIGHT sell. 

Is this consistent with other's observation?

Thanks
