somebody wrote me a message a while back on the old forum that had any Mc available for sale. Can't remember his name but he was offering any single carb motor for 500 double was a little more. Never got into details since I found a nice mc91 on ebay. looking for something for my 61 Scorpion. a 10 or 20 would be preferred but a 6 would work. I would even consider a homelite, PP or WB (rh).
a homelite 100 LH would be nice but expect it would be too pricey.
what a horror about the old site but this new one will be nice, too

Stan Thompson had advertised a number of Macs right before the site crashed.

Bob, are you looking for a rebuildable core a ready to run used or a rebuilt motor?
a rebuildable core is about what your budget will get in the older rarer motors. the same money probably would get you a decent used motor.
rebuilt mccullochs are usually alot more. on the happy side if you get a rebuild from one of the good builders you'll be ready to run.
any core you get will typically need at least 200 worth of parts to get it squared away. unless you luck out and everything is just needing a good cleaning.

I'm involved in some big projects so a running engine would be better. the scorpion isn't ready yet so I can wait. back in the day I remember a scorpion with a mc20 so I would prefer one, but I rarely see one with good chrome.. I would want it to be nice but on the right one I will deal with the issues. 2nd choice is a mc10.
that kl100 offered.. does anyone know if they were offered in '61. i would like it on the scorpion but only if it is period correct. I believe its a 62, scorpion is a 61
my big project is a 64 corvette which I work on daily.. finally got on it after buying it 5 years ago. it was a hulk with a broken off nose and quarters gone. one day I'll pull a trailer with the scorpion in it.
