Presumably it has a hot cam?

(And hot pistons, a hot head, a hot block, etc. etc. )

Ideally, find some way to put it in a DB3S replica as a sort of 'modern' Lagonda V12.

Looks like it fell off the back of the Cosworth lorry. Where are the engines assembled?

Note that he won't post the engine number on eBay - that'd make it dead easy to trace...

Reminds me the guy who tried to sell a casting from an SLR. He's was delivering them to the factory but managed to "lose" one. Unfortunately for him the pictures he took of it for eBay showed the casting numbers on them which were sequential The paper trail led right back to him.

They are made in Germany now, and given the number of ' S ' engines that have been built , you would think it would be oh-so easy to trace it back to someone . If it is bent , then someone is taking a big risk to flog it on eBay .
