will I get slaughtered for thinking coffee table?

Yes, unless you are suggesting a motorised coffee table that is.

I think you would if it's working fine...
I’ve a couple of V8 alloy blocks stripped and ready for chemical treatment, to be made into tables. Not AJP btw. I did get my hands on an ex indie500 racing engine.

Snapped the crankshaft on my ajp 3 weeks ago but picked up a bell hill engine with a warranty to drop in so will be interested to see how the ebay one pans out. The heads on my old block are fine so will sell them on to recoup something at least, but at least I'll get a shiny ajpv8 coffee table as a result

If you don't mind me asking, how much did Bell Hill want for an engine? Also, please do let me know when you are selling your heads for your 4.2, as I may be interested!!

Longbow, YHM about the price I paid from bell hill for the engine. The heads are unskimmed and I'm having them pressure tested and certified next week so I'll give you 1st refusal as soon as I have them back.

I know one breaker typically asks around 4k for a early 4.2 engine and up to 6k for a late red rose 4.5 so that should give you some indications.
