Im reluctently Selling my running engine KRO1234 (can be seen running and taken out) I will be keeping the alternator and starter motor and some of the turbo hoses and some coolant ones.
+1mm 205 block with 4x4 Mahle pistons with valve cut outs which have done nearly 10k. New rings and bearings 4k ago with regular oil changes from day 1. Only quality oil used.
Group a headgasket
New followers
Cam bearings replaced.
New Weber FRP in red 3.5bar.

Refurbed cam cover (correct colour)
Good cylinder head(cant rem height) with mild porting. New guides were used 10k ago.
Clutch is an LUK , handles my stg 1 nicely and has done 4k.


So the engine with turbo Im looking for £2000 or very near offer/sensible . She runs and idles very nicely when warmed up properly, On a cold crank she does the usual follwer rattle for a few seconds and settles down quickly. I could perhaps also sell the ecu/loom I just have not thought about that yet .
The engine goes sweetly and is a good torquey build. Terry timed the cams perfectly and the difference from the old engine setup is night and day. This engine pulls very well low down and continues pulling unlike before.

At the minute it has a rare sump which I have chose to keep .
So it will have standard sump by next week with a fresh oil/filter change.

Before the engine is removed it would be an ideal time to see it running and even go out in the car.
My mechanic friend is removing it next week for me but with no day set as of yet.

Any questions welcome, no doubt ive missed something out.

ok just an update and a bump, engine is still in the car as my mechanic hasnt had time and also i want it in the car to sell it easier/see it running.

to add, this is not a 'home build' (not suggesting it cant be done at home)

Terry Dolphin built this engine, an unknown name in our circle of things on here but the guy is at the top of his game. V12,s Ferrari engines is what he does best but cosworths , and all the classic and new engines he works with.

I need the ££ and fairly soon.
My thoughts are i dont want to search for another car in yrs to come i want to hold onto it but an engine can be replicated alot easier.

subject to interest i may sell it as a near complete ready to go engine. so loom/ecu may be sold aswell .

No gearbox in the deal.

cheeRS.
Mike .

 

Price drop to £1800 with an engine loom to suit.
No ECU though.
