I have a beautifully spun block at my house. Oil pumps seizes, balance shaft is welded in place, grand canyons carved out on the crank journals. Generally showing signs of running at full throttle for about 2 minutes( from what I can tell from the video of first sign to quit) without oil. Should I just through it out on a empty gravel road like I do with tyres and appliances or is there some place that will give me scrap money for it?

turn it into a coffee table or something, like the guy did with his old V8.

Coffee Table gets my vote!

If you find a place to take it, let me know. I've got a KA block I need to get rid of, as well as some old brake rotors and a couple of really messed up alloy rims. I'm trying to think of where I took my front clip. It was some place in St. Paul, and we basically just drove in, and the guy picked it up off the trailer with a huge claws of death grabber thing on one of those industrial back hoe's, and we were on our way.

i was thinking coffee table as well but for rims and brake rotors. the rims would make great bar stools but if you have a trash company that picks up the cans w/ the truck not by hand then just stuff them in the bottom of the trash can and they won't ever notice.

I know a lot of you don't exactly like honda's (ok, well everyone I know on here personally hates them) anyway, this guy on honda-tech went a little nuts.
Check this out. Del Sol Loveseat It isn't done yet, but reading some of the posts is pretty damn funny. |
I don't know why a scrap metal place wouldn't take it, and you'd probably get some money out of it.

In st. paul take 52 south off of 94 and go one or two exits past plato get off 52 and go left at the stop light and you will be at a huge scrap metal place you drive in on a scale they weigh you they take your parts and your drive out and they weigh you. paid by the pound, in the summer when i went there the scale was empty the scale said i weighed 260 and i walked over the scale going out and i weighed over 280 so it is rigged to their advantage. so if it is off 20 pounds per ever 1/8 ton imagine when a huge truck goes in there with 8000 pounds of steel. the guy looses a hundred bucks i bet
