What sort of cash (roughly) would you have to pay to get a 4x4 rebuilt so it is strong enough to handle stage 1 reliably?

 

I've been quoted anything between Ł3k to Ł6k!

 

GGR just quoted me 5794 but said that was last years prices

 

Try Steve Tate at Swillington Auto Care(0113 2877199),good service,no bullshit. Did mine 2 years ago.
Might be a bit far for you tho,near Leeds!

 

Anything between Ł2.5K and Ł8K depending on who you speak to.

 

Stu @ MSD does great prices on rebuilds!!! It's well worth getting a quote from him!

 

Are you only looking on get the bottom end rebuilt or a full engine rebuild? as you've already got the 200 block etc....

A1 Rally sport is quite cheap for engine rebuilds

 

Is there anything wrong with your engine? How many miles has it done & has it been regularly serviced? I ask because a cossie engine should be reliable for Stage 1 at WELL over 100k miles if it's been looked after.

 

Ł4k minimum really

 

A1 would do it top to bottom for about 4k

 

Ł4k for a stage 1 cossie engine

mind you the question is about as vague as it gets , what parts are useable on the engine thats to be built??

 

As swerv said above it. Ive just blowen my 400BHP lump.
But still have loads of good bits . The head for example needs no new parts

Think a first figure then by the end it will prob be double it as u will want a few added on extras

 

Unless there is something wrong with your engine JFDI. I took my 4x4 to stage 1 when it had 130k on the clock and it ran just fine (still on it's original turbo) upto 164k when some drunk in a removals lorrry wrote it off last Thursday night.

Stage 1 is what the car was designed for and was only racked back by Ford for warranty purposes.

Thanks for the replies guys. I was basically looking towards the future so i can try my best to plan my finances.
The engine clocked 100k last weekend, has a full service history and has never been chipped or modified apart from a mongoose exhaust and a k&n filter.

 

Don't arse about getting it rebuilt then m8, just go to MSD & get it stage 1'd & it'll probably last you another 60k without any trouble as long as maintenance is kept up

 

if u do it ur self about 1-2 k for full rebuild, but i would go karl if i had a cossie

 

Thats who i was thinking about talking to for the stage 1

 

my engine was rebuilt less than 2 thousand miles ago, the price is 3K complete. by the time you sell all your old bits off you would probably get back over 2K, therefore a rebuilt stage 3 engine with t34 turbo/greens etc will cost you 1 grand. makes sense ?

I melted a piston a few months ago, initially it just looked like a set of pistons and a rebore. Erm ....NO, turned out head had taken a few knocks which couldnt be machined out and the block had a big hole in it too! By the time everything was completed ( done right )i was looking at around the 5k mark!

As mentioned if its fine just now then just chip it and see how long she lasts then you could worry about rebuilding later.
