i have an engine thats possibly going in my caterham, if not just wondering what sort of money i may get for it for an elise transplant maybe

its a 1.8 engine, with vvc head.
vvc delete with piper 285h cams and piper blank plates
head is ported and polished, 4 angle valve seats, colisbro guides
piper single springs
vernier pulleys
45mm magnesium throttle bodies with emerald m3d ecu mapped by minister
port matched inlet manifold
accralite forged 11.3- 1 pistons
dva rod mod
lightened and balenced bottom end
land rover uprated oil ladder
mls steel gasket
prs thermostat system

was fully built approx 2 years ago and used in an mg zr road car, its also had the rev limit set to 7500rpm which is very conservative. minimal miles on the engine, full receipts for the rebuild

cost a fortune to build!!

rolling road of approx 200bhp at the flywheel, although rev limit set low, so more power to come with a remap. that was on a restrictive cheap janspeed manifold, and std cat.

engine is complete and ready to go, i chopped the whole loom from the bulkhead so the whole wiring loom is attached.

awsome engine, runs absolutley perfectly.

cheers
