Default RS Turbo engine wanted/help tracing!"

Trying to find/buy the following RS Turbo engine:

Engine number: 69537

Ideally the entire engine or just the block if that all that available.

I'd be really greatful if you could all PLEASE check your engine numbers, even if you don't plan on selling it!" so we can atleast trace the engine down. Maybe you may sell it in the future/or need to do a rebuild, and we could swap blocks.

Cheers everyone!"

Its worth a try!" The car has very low mileage so would be nice to have the original engine in it. I've always found people on here and the RSOC to be very helpful. So although it seems a long shot, ya never know!"

Cheers, Mike

The original engine was totally standard and the owner at the time wanted more power so purchased a very good second hand item which had been extensively modded. The original engine was seriously mint though
