Used Yanmar 6LY Block with 5k hours engine or boat where never under water. Engine was pulled from head gasket failure as I wanted to have it checked. Block was sent for magna flux and no cracks where found, however cylinders walls are just over specified allowance for variance and i mean just over. My mechanic stated if you are hanging around 5 to 10 miles i would reuse this in a second. but my off shore fishing takes me over 100 miles out .He bought everything else (crank Pistons etc.) from me as it was in such good condition. Most of the main bearings are still on caps and in excellent condition for the hours and all caps are present for re-use So I just decided to go with new cummins engines in my boat instead. . want a new block? over $9k. you can have this one for a fraction of that..I have head as well no cracks in it either. can be negotiated in I coated the cylinder walls with grease and sprayed white lithium grease over everything which is why you see white in photos.

Lotus planning Electric Car
Sat, 03 Jan 2009I suppose it was inevitable that Lotus would not settle for simply supplying Tesla with the chassis for their electric car, and would look to jump on the bandwagon of electric cars (EV). Lotus CEO, Michael Kimberly, has told the Financial Times that Lotus is planning an electric car “sooner rather than later”, and went on to say that it will be an extended range battery vehicle. Extended range EVs (like the Chevy Volt) are probably the best option for a mainstream car at the moment, at least until you can buy hydrogen at the pumps other than in California.
End of the road for Mercury

But ultimately, the failure to stand alone in the Ford Motor Co.'s family of brands spelled its demise. Mercury, a brand founded by company scion Edsel Ford, will be shuttered as Ford concentrates its efforts on the core Ford brand and luxury-level Lincolns.
