Just put my name to this engine, not going to say what I paid but it was a fair price for what it is....rebuilt 3600 miles ago with paperwork to prove, all receipts for work done etc...
CYLINDER HEAD IS GAS FLOWED AND PORTED
DB 10`S
BRONZE VALVE GUIDES PLUS NEW STEM SEALS
3 ANGLED CUT THROATS
MODIFIED INLET MANIFOLD MATCHED TO HEAD
WITH FUEL RAIL INJECTORS
KENT COMPETITION CAM FOLLOWERS
200 BLOCK
SUMP AND CROSS SHAFT
LOW COMP PISTONS
CLEANED AND POLISHED COMBUSTION CAMBERS
UPRATED STAGE 1 FAST ROAD CLUTCH
ENGINE REBUILT WITH GROUP A HEADGASKET AND TIMING BELT
L8 ECU & GOOD CONDITION LOOM + SENSOR PRESENT AND WORKING
What sort of power has this engine been built for do you think? I have a 5-bar map sensor and some 1000cc injectors on their way what kind of power could I acheive realistically with these cams etc.....I know its over 400bhp (which was my ballpark before this came along)...
Place your bets now!

not really mate, if i put a T90 (if there is such a thing) does that make it a 800bhp engine?
So regardless of turbo spec what is the engine capable of is the question im asking...i'm happy with 400bhp so anything else is a bonus really.

well your group a head gasket will be the point were most wouldnt push past 400 bhp you will need to be wire rung to be able to use a group a head gasket to beyound 400 bhp with out fail multy layer shim would have been better ...its not a 500 bhp engine

I know its not a 500bhp engine....if its capable of running 400 then i'm happy as I got it (full setup) for a good price.
Cheers

Which kind of makes wire ringing them pointless?
I could be wrong though?
