    I have had a raised roof super race case since before I built this engine and it's nagging at me to build it into a bigger one. Most of the parts below were bought for this purpose, but at the time I didn't have the extra money for a new crank flywheel and clutch so I built this one around the case and crank of the last one. The case was inspected by our own Rob Parry and several oil delivery problems rectified. Core plugs removed and case thoroughly cleaned.

    Ali case full flowed for oil cooler/filter. Case has not been line bored.
    Wasserboxer 2.1L 76mm crank, 228mm flywheel and new clutch. Mains have had one grind and big ends just a polish since new. This was done as part of this build.
    New 5.5" SSP con rods
    New 92mm AA stroker B&P's
    New AA 40x35.5mm heads with 3 angle valve job, SS valves, single high rev springs
    New Scat C35 cam, cam followers, cam gear
    New oil pump.
    Standard push rods.
    Standard rocker gear.
    All new bearings.
    Rolling roaded at 134BHP at 4800 rpm with DRLA40 carbs (30 vents) and a vintage speed exhaust (not included). Would have produced more power with larger vents, but these are a nicer drive.

    Built up and running for about a year and less than 10K miles. [Edit: checked today and more like 3-4,000 miles] Not thrashed! This engine is reasonably sensible - it does not have or need super-strong valve springs or ratio rockers that put a great strain on the valves, cam and followers. No doubt a few more BHP could have been squeezed out of it like this but it will last a lot longer how it's built. I do have ratio rockers and steel rods but decided against fitting them for this reason.

    No end float, no smoking, no obvious wear, no funny noises. Ticks over with 20psi and runs at 42psi just as it should.

    Price £1750 ono for bare engine with flywheel and new (a few months old) clutch. Clutch was replaced as "someone" who was paid to balance it made a mess of it.

    Engine located at IP28 8DS (East Anglia). Engine is in my bus and can be experienced before purchase. It will stay in there until sold at which point it will be removed more or less then and there for you. Can be palleted or picked up.

    Some pics, though of course you can't see a lot of the long block in most of the pics.
    Too mucky in the workshop so built on the dining room table (I'm divorced. :D )

    I was conservative about the mileage until I checked today. In fact it hasn't done anywhere near 10,000 miles, it's more like 3-4,000.

    I would like to highlight that this is outright purchase, I don't want your old engine so you can sell it on ebay and make this even more of a bargain. :)

    Heads came new with perfect match port to the inlet manifolds so they have not been hacked about.
     
  9. Wow that is a bargain.

    Having paid for a similar ish spec engine myself a couple of years ago, I can tell you that this is amazing value!

    Mine is bigger cc, but much less powerful as well some how!

    I'm keen to get on with the new one and that's more important than sucking every last penny out of this one. :)

    Sorry I need all the parts really but if you're really that lazy you can have it all inc gearbox for £5K.
     
  14. Thanks but a tad high for me, will review the 911 option
    Cheers

    Can you tell I just want to sell the engine? :lol:
     
  16. Just a little bit, yeah;)
     
  17. Silly me I thought you were going to give it away lol
    Which 911 for me now?
    That is the question

    Seriously, me and Rob Parry were totting it up today and £4.5K isn't far out for the whole lot plug and play, but that doesn't allow me anything for the buggering about collecting up all this stuff - risking money on a gearbox, rolling road and muchos time.
     
  19. Respect your input but Bays aren't a profit maker, well not when you do it properly

    You are giving the impression that you think I should sell my gathered hoard of parts - parts that I want to keep - at a loss, purely for your convenience. Perhaps I've misunderstood you. :)
