Hi Folks,

I have been offered a race engine (hillclimb, said to deliver 160bhp :?: ) which I fancy buying, mainly because of its 8-port Weslake head.
It has been dry stored for something like 10 years and had been overholed prior to that.

Setup:
  • A+ Block w/ rod change
  • 74mm :?: pistons
  • Weslake 8-port head with custom made flat slide throttle
  • Short stroke crank to give it 1300cc pretty exactly
  • SC gears and drops
  • LSD
  • 8-port manifold, cable loom and Haltech ignition
So, now it is time to put the dust cover off your crystal balls...
  • How much should I pay for it?
  • What could I possibly get for the remainder of the engine if I stripped it of its Weslake-head?
  • I reckon the gearbox and LSD components of this A+ cannot be transfered into a remote housing, right?
Your opinions and observations would be very welcome

Well, the seller asks non-negotionable €8000,- in the German Mini forum.
