I bid on a diesel engien on E-bay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... AMEWA%3AIT
and didnt win it, but they winning bidder didnt take it so the are offering it to me I was wondering if anyone was interested in it I dont need it now I got another engine in the mean time there offering it to me for 690.00 bucks

Ive been looking more into the C240 and I was wondering if it uses the same basic motor mounts and bellhousing as the C223 if so I could use it for my S10 if it ever decides to blow up

Well things are not going well the message that the seller sent me seemed suspicous so I sent them to Ebay and now it turns out that this seller is trying to scam people there going to check into it more to make sure but it doesnt look like Im guna be getting a motor

I don't know about the C240 fitting dimensionally, but its redline is only 3000 RPM. You'd have to overdrive and/or regear the S10.

I agree with Scott, the C240 diesel engine is mainly an industrial/marine application engine that doesn't have a high reving RPM like the smaller C223. You have to look at the C223 being a more special engine given it's just about specifically designed for automotive application vehicles. If everything goes right with your S10, this engine should give you trouble free miles for a long time to come. A lot more than the factory gas powerplant that's for sure.
