think it was about 4 grand coz i bought a brand new 200 block and i had to get a crank!! the engine had spun number 4 shell bent the rod and crank
that also included the stage 3 stuff aswell 3bar map sensor,greens and chip but as always i got bored and ended up with a gt30 turbo after i killed the turbo at croft!!! carwise also done all the powder coating and polishing coz i would never do it lol

A1 Rally Sport will do a bullet proof engine for the right money. All depends on the spec you want and how much you have to spend.

Its a hard one to swallow mate when you get a bill for £3300, if your handy enough and have the time and space why not try it your self, its not as hard as you would imagine
