hi can you guys and girls give me the details of the specs of your engines?compression,pistons,turbo etc and what you recon the engine owes you?just trying to get a rough guide and the best spec for the money.

M.A.D.RST

Why not give one of the many tuners a ring, if your seriously after a big spec engine then they can give you what your after and a price

Plus 50bhp less than your previous post isnt really going to make much difference...............................is it

thedaddie

maybe he justs wants a rough idea of different stages of tune something i was was interested in when i saw the title

450bhp is going to be £10k + VAT OUTRIGHT (dynoed, but not installed). Using your block, rods, crank etc, will reduce the price, but your engine needs to be stripped and assessed to see what CAN be used.... Could go as low as £7.5 - 8k + VAT installed, depending on spec and what is required over and above your own engine.

at least he's asking sensible questions rather than 'how do i get my heatshield off' & 'how do i jack my cossie up'

glancy2081

maybe he plans on putting the engine together himself, not ever one needs or has money to pay someone to do everything for them

are you looking for a nice road car or a track car

Won't just be the engine you'll have to spend money on for 450 brake though - brakes / suspension / gearbox / diffs will need sorting too.

I fail to see why asking how to remove the heat shield is not a sensible question? And i havent seen a post asking how to jack a cossie up

He was simply referring back to this post

Do you see the ' ' smilie?

That means its a bit of banter between me & Nick, is that ok? or should i run every reply i make by you first

Dunccoss

as said 8k to 10K for engine
other engine bits like upratted rad, intercooler, tanks,ect £1k
front diff and rear diff ? about 3k
clutch and gear box start from about 3k
brakes and shocks from 2k

so to do it right about 20 k for a standard car as a base

can be built a lot cheaper if your williing to do it yourself,

i have replaced head gasket and cams eals in my own car,
all done by myself and friends (mostly daz c)

now, i have simpply save d myself best part of probably 400 quid by doing that,

if i was to want more power now, i would simplly strip the engine myself

get the bottom end proff rebuilt annd thats it, a few of my mates are all DIY enginie builders, so now probs there,

which inc the fastest RWD cossie in UK (road legal)

Some people are going to rip into you for that comment Andy.

What you mean is the fastest 1/4 mile RWD 3 door.
