Yeah, I was offered an unused one for £1800 but didn't buy it and now he is needing it on his new build. I think a new one will be around £2k or more.

I know it wont be a cheap build but I hope I can gain a fair chunk back on my 200 block and crank as I do not believe it has ever been apart other than a metal head gasket being fitted.

As Ajamesc says, I may just find that I am happy with how it is and leave it all alone, if it ever needs a rebuild I can go for it but it kind of makes sense to sell it knowing it is a good engine.

Cams, oil pump, oil jets, rods, pistons, bearings, head work, gaskets Marks time plus the re-mapping, big wing sump, long studs and I am sure there are many other things ...to find....it all adds up very quickly but if I can buy bits as I go and then sell my engine at the end it may not be a big hit.
