Re: Wanted forged T16 turbo bottom end
I do forged bottom ends pretty cheap.
£300 for the build and £120 machine work.
You supply pistons and crank / gasket set.
For £1000 give or take a few pennies, it could be ready to fit.
Or for an extra couple of hundred quid I have one in my car I would sell, complete with head bolted on already and can be seen running.

Re: Wanted forged T16 turbo bottom end
I'm not promising, but I know of one that "might" be available in about 4 weeks time.
Spec was:
86mm oversize Wossner pistons
Block professionally honed and bored for pistons
Forged rods (can't remember exact brand)
Brand new crank
Brand new big end and main bearings
Brank new oil pump
Brank new gaskets
Alloy sump
Run only on millers 10/60 CFS oil
Will have done no more than 150miles since build and will have images and some receipts.
If it's available, it will be £1000.
Let me know if that's the sort of spec your looking for and i'll come back to you if it becomes available.
BTW, if it is available, I know other parts will become available which might be of interest if your looking for a good full package.

Re: Wanted forged T16 turbo bottom end
I am stumped at how £1000 for a brand new forged engine goes overlooked

Re: Wanted forged T16 turbo bottom end
Thought £1200 was good price for something never build up and still needs pistons buying for it, might be good buy at 1500 just the added cost getting it built up

Re: Wanted forged T16 turbo bottom end
Must have misread it then, odd.
Anyway, good luck keeping it all if that is the case
