Figured I'd split this out of the other thread:

I tried to crank over my 3.0L engine conversion only to hear a loud squeaking sound. Upon disassembly, I found that all the oil was sitting in the pan, and that the rest of the engine was bone dry. There are scratches on the main bearings, but the crank itself is fine.

At this point, I'm looking to replace:
- The oil pump, or at least the spring for it (apparently the 2.8L spring works, but I don't have one)
- Main bearings
- Connecting rod bearings

My searches absolutely so far have found nothing. I've been looking for:
- ~1989 Eagle Premier, 3.0L
- ~1992 Dodge Monaco, 3.0L
- Renault Z7X engine

I can find parts for the 2.5L pretty easily, but nothing for the 3.0L. I checked the usual suspects like RockAuto, NAPA, AutoZone, and bearing makers King and MAHLE, but nothing.

Does anyone know where I can buy these parts? My worst case scenario is to buy another engine, if it comes down to it, but getting new bearings and a new pump would be a lot easier, faster and probably cheaper.

Thanks
