Has anyone got any parts for the LC Turbo Engine for sale, Im looking for a piston and liner and a complete cylinder head. It would be nice to upgrade to some of the more reliable parts at this stage if available; forged pistons, nicosil liners and a later type or gas flowed head. Anything considered even a complete engine.

Well, I have some parts available. I blew my engine back on May 17th, so I have extra parts now. I have 2 piston/sleeve pairs that are still good. I do have the head, but the #1 piston smacked the valves, so it would need a valve job, including valve seats and guides on at least #1. Also, the #1 combustion chamber would probably need to be cleaned up, just because a loose valve was floating around in the combustion chamber. Pictures of the head (and entire engine) are at:

I normally don't watch Piston Heads too much, so feel free to email me at: opie@ameritech.net

Cheers,

Thanks, your head looks good in comparison to mine. Ill keep looking at the moment in the UK ideally for a complete head or any other options. As for the pistons I guess from your signature that yours is an SE engine which would be great if I could find some more SE bits to go with them.
