Thanks for your input Mark. I can't find any information on cfs cores. Have you got a link please?

I have not paid 26k, it is the previous owner who built it.

But for longevity it was a toss up, rebuild my block, oil jets, head work, cams, long studs, crank to be safe at 8k, oil system, pocketed Pistons, rods, cams, it is cheaper to sell my stock engine. Buy this one and have mark do his magic, I expect we will swap cams and my engine would detonate at 8k and it certainly will not do 600bhp, if I put that turbo on it would blow within miles at that power. If you do the head work, rebuild, cams, crank and Pistons plus the block work you would do £8-10k easy....I have weighed up all the options.

Your going for lots of power/boost so the answer to this question is easy.. buy the best you can afford. If you can afford bespoke with the garrett core go for that
Get your wallet out time dude..

Well a CSF intercooler core is on its way to me. Should be with me by the end of the month. Lord Shead rates them so they can't be that bad. Next step, look into end tanks. I'm guessing you'd go for top feed Mark?

Haha you’re not wrong mate. Why didn’t you tell me not to bother all those years ago. Mind you I’ll need something to keep my mind and body active when I get to your age.
