there was an interesting thread on PF about this ebay engine and the costs around developing such a product.

One of the mods from this site has some input on this

Very diplomatically put - you feeling okay? No pithy remarks or sarcastic comments? .

Yes, my engine builder could build the EXACT same engine as the ebay one for £10k less - and that is from the horses mouth .

In fact he has been tasked with putting right an RS200 engine that came from JGs and he is extremely surprised at some of the mis-matched build spec.

Tiz the season and all that

I thought for the most part the tread went well, then it turned into the usual tuner wars.

Least you rose above it, like you normally do

One of the engine builders for JG has been rebuilding a mates engine for his Saph, and some of the things he has been suggesting to be done is really odd for a 350bhp engine.
Pushing him to go for roller bearing T38's, BD14's, silly ported heads etc.

All he wanted was an engine freshen upend a set of greens on a T3 or T34.48 at most

Maybe he's getting 350 bhp from 3k all the way to 7k

I think we're known in the trade as pikeys!!!!

I have trouble justifying it sitting in the garage as it is, without having ploughed another 15k into the engine and drivetrain. Some lovely high powered cars out there, I just couldn't bring myself to spend that kind of cash.

i didn't watch the rallycross this season but last seasons european rallycross championship winning donkey was owned by surprise surprise a Norsk Norwegian who had a Godfrey donkey in the car.

that tells me theres no one capeable of building the big hp cosworths over there anymore,in the good old days a top spec rallycross yb did practice and needed only a headgasket,the first heat and only a new turbo and if really lucky the finals without blowing up but last a season ??????????????? HaHa not on your moose
