Flaminia 3C engine

I am coming to the end of a restoration and when I bought the car there was no engine. It should have a 2.5l 3C engine. I have at present put in a standard engine but would like to find the correct one. Therefore, I am looking for a complete 3C engine in any condition. Will willingly arrange transport. Can anyone help?

The 2.5 3C engine has one flaw.

The coolant guides inside the engine block are prone to rust away thus causing cooling problems. These can be replaced by stainless steel ones, but it's a hell of a job and you need a model.

Who will make a problem of a 2.8 engine? It's simply better! And guess what... I have 2 engines for sale,
one is a 2.8 sedan engine, the other a 2.8 3C engine. Both in good condition. 3C carb setup is sold separately!

Best regards,

Jean
