Fully rebuilt unit, new pistons etc. 6 long studded block, WRC metalic multi-layer head gasket, injectors, turbo, cams, Nick Waples (one of the best in the business) worked head, O ringed inlet, big wing sump, dyno mapped, etc. etc. the list goes on and on.... and reliability to boot.
The frustrating thing is the fact I paid £5,325, for my engine, identical to above, but uses std cams, NO Waples headwork and my original T34 (rebuilt), for 375 Brake, so theoretically for an extra £1.7k, I could have had a bigger turbo a modded cam (or two) and reworked head and 450 brake Which is a shame as in the grand scale of things it isnt alot more money ... But as I have said before, the line had to be drawn and I maintain I was more than happy with it when it was just stgIII
