I'm very tempted as I could sell the one in mine that has been rebuilt so would recoup some of the cost.

i think so considering it's an outright purchase the breakers are asking close to that for a used one when they have them.

Not a bad price surely. Isn't it about £5k for a good rebuild?

Mines was more than the cost of the engine for sale.

Aren't the late ajps down on power?
I'd have it but I have a rr and so it would always need more work and soon it costs a lot more...!?

Knowing STR8 SIX this will be an engine built to the best possible standards, Jason takes a real pride in his work.

Looks like a bit of a bargin to me.

Looks like a beauty .. no wonder why they are light.

All for the price of a rebuild.

If your engine goes bang then this is the cost but if built by someone who knows what they are doing ie. maybe this engine, then it's a good way to go. I've heard good and bad stories of engine rebuilds. If reputation precides then why not.

I wasn't interested but then I looked at the pictures and tried to think of a reason to buy it......

Thank God it has sold - it stops me asking Jason to shoe-horn it into my Tuscan. Asking price was less than an exchange S6 from Power, and a hell of a lot less than a 4.3 SP6!

Thats because there is no margin to cover a 3 yr warranty I guess.
