Hi
A friend of mine has what he thinks is a a genuine XU-1 motor (186 block) with which has had some work (yella terra heads, cane manifold, high volume oil pump, triple SUs and 202 crank).
About 2k since rebuild.
I understand that it is a very good motor.
Two questions:
1. What do you guys think something like this would be worth if genuine; and
2. How can you identify that it is a genuine XU-1 motor?
Thanks again guys
Mark

I think a few early XU1 motors started with 186X. Not sure how many.

If it is an LC XU-1 block, send a PM to 3100X (look in the members section). He is looking for one.
