L-134 Motor Visalia, CA **SOLD**

• CATEGORIES: Engine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $550

“I have for sale a 1950s Willys L134 Motor. The motor was mounted to a military generator. This motor is also equipped with water fording waterproofing equipment including a waterproof distributor and oil bath air cleaner specifically designed to support the air ventilation for fording as was seen on the MC-38 Military Willys Jeep. The generator and all parts other than what you see in the pictures was scrapped. The motor turns freely but I haven’t made any efforts yet to start it. This is the same motor used in the early flat fender Willys Jeeps with the exception that it has extra accessories that supported the generator function such as the governor – all of which are readily removed and it also has the waterproofing accessories which can be run in any environment or replaced with standard accessories. I’m selling it as is with the accessories you see attached for an asking price of $550. Please e-mail if interested.”

UPDATE: ****SOLD** Was $650.

“Super Hurricane flat head 6 cyl engine out of a 1954 Jeep Willys pick up – mileage is unknown

I will include the 3 speed trans and the twin stick transfer case as well as all the ignition, carb, starter, alt, etc – I am installing a diesel engine so I don’t need anything off of it

MB Engine with GPW head on eBay

• CATEGORIES: Engine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Joe forwarded this engine for sale on eBay. Local pickup only (Ohio).

“Up for your consideration is a Willys L-134 engine ser # MB334904 . I bought it just in case I was going to assemble a WW2 jeep. This engine has the Military Standard oil filter, Crank start nut, Lower Pulley guards, WW2 primer fuel pump. It has a Gpw script oil pump, original water pump with no holes (civilian has heater ports). It also has the WW2 jeep steel radiator hose sections. Was told the brown bakelite distributor cap is rare. It appears that the head is a Gpw as you can see a Gp under the oil filter bracket. It will turn with a wrench on the crank start nut. With the prices on these going up This would make a good place to start for your jeep. If you priced a carb, intake/exhaust manifold, Distributor and so on you will see that this will make a good buy. This could be used also for the Ford Gpw”

Nate’s Dual Carb Setup

• CATEGORIES: Builds, CJ-3A, Engine • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Nate’s simple reasoning for installing two carbs on his L-Head (I had two YF carbs and plenty of time) belies his good understanding of how why the carbs add more power (see his explanation in the thread comments). As usual, very nice work Nate!
