I have a friend locally that after 160k and autocrossing all summer spun a
rod bearing on his way into work the other day on his 95. He replaced the
bearings but still had a slight knock, so he found a 80k mile locally to
swap in. So later this week I get to help him swap in this "new" 3.2 after
he goes over it and gives it new seals and a set of 3.0 cams ect. 
 
I wanted to get a jump on his parts sales for him, and before he gets on
ebay I wanted to see if there was anyone looking for 3.2 engine parts. He
has another 3.2 that he picked up 2 years ago that was a spun bearing
failure on two rods. So he has a total of 9 good 3.2 pistons and rods, I've
seen a used set of 3.2 rods go for decent money on ebay but I figured I'd
mention them here.
 
He's going to have the following available if I'm not mistaken.
 
9 - 3.2L rods and pistons
1 - 3.2L crank (he's gonna check the roundness of #6 journal first)
1 - 3.2L crank (this one needed to be reground to be used)
1 - set of 3.2L heads bare with valves and buckets only
1 - 3.2L block stripped bare
1 - set of 3.2L timing covers - tells me they are in great shape 
1 - set of 3.2 cams (great for cores for +20's)
 
 
He'll prolly also have at least 1 set of the pullies and tensioners and what
not for sale, but I haven't been up there in the last few days to see what
he has and what he's gonna part with. 
 
If anyone is interested in anything he has, or is looking for something in
particular please contact me and I can check with him as to what he has.
Please put "Kevin 3.2 Parts" in the subject so that I don't miss any
requests.
 
His old engine is out and stripped, so most everything is available for
shipment pretty soon. I wanted to get this out there to get him a jump on
getting this stuff to people that might be looking.
