My whole cars up for sale with 288 bhp and 320 lbs ft torque,engines done less than 2000 miles. make an offer/swap if ya interested, or for the right money I'd sell the engine and management on its own.

2K should see you with a half decent engine.

My advise would be too look through Performance Ford mag and look for companies that sell a fully built engine, people such as Race Power Motorsport on 01322 386677.
There is a lot of work to get it all correct, like the water pump plate, belt tensioner, blanking off the oil returns, fitting turbo oil return, additional breather on the back of the engine, plugging the front breather etc

You need to consider other things such as your intercooler, management etc.

Speak to Field Mototsport 01245 320730 - they will be able to sort you out if you tell them your budget and ultimate bhp aims.

PS: They are top company
