DT 140 missing head -- it's gone.

Author Message   Doug Ma. New member Username: yqtnxnb Post Number: 1 Registered: 12-2009 Posted on Tuesday, December 29, 2009 - 08:11 pm:    Hello all. I picked up a '79 Checkmate boat with this DT 140 from about 1981. The head is missing from the engine, bolts and all. However, the entire assembly rotates freely, and I'm interested in throwing a used, good head on the engine to see if it'll run. Everything else appears to be present--to my untrained eye. Can anyone help with those specific pieces? Sounds silly to some, but with the cost of engines I thought if I could get it running fair, I can trade up with less cost.   JUST-IN-TIME Senior Member Username: justintime Post Number: 7292 Registered: 09-2006 Posted on Sunday, January 03, 2010 - 08:18 pm:    brownspoint.com   Cliff Casavant Advanced Member Username: chickenfry Post Number: 244 Registered: 05-2009 Posted on Monday, January 04, 2010 - 12:59 pm:    i have a complete 140 for parts   Doug Ma.

I think I'm looking at several missing parts. Probably the upper and lower cyl heads and covers. It looks like I need parts 1 thru 16 (top end). http://store.brownspoint.com/pdf/DT115_140%2881-82%29.pdf For new prices it looks too expensive for an unknown engine. I'd still like to piece it together with a mix of new and used if possible. Thanks for any help.   Cliff Casavant Advanced Member Username: chickenfry Post Number: 245 Registered: 05-2009 Posted on Tuesday, January 05, 2010 - 08:50 am:    let me know what you need   Doug Ma.

What's the serial number on the one you have?   Cliff Casavant Advanced Member Username: chickenfry Post Number: 256 Registered: 05-2009 Posted on Thursday, January 07, 2010 - 08:55 am:    I have a 1986 here is my email ccasavant@marineengine.com
