Hi guys

Change of plan from a previous post, im wanting to know what my engine is worth.

Its a stripped down metro turbo engine, 90% complete.

A list of whats there:
1275 turbo block
1275 turbo pistons on con rods
Complete 1275 turbo head with valves and rockers
Crankshaft
1275 camshaft
Turbo unit with actuator
Turbo exhaust manifold and elbow
Turbo inlet and carb with plenum
Flywheel and clutch
Flywheel cover/bell housing (what some call a wok)
Turbo dizzy minus the cap
1275 dizzy
Alternator and startor
A box of miscellaneous nuts and bolts

So pretty much nearly everything you need for a turbo conversion

Any ideas?

Cheers

You'll se lots advertised on ebay for over £1k but the last one I saw sold on a auction sold for £600.

 

Their value has gone down now that people are using more moden turbos for Mini set-ups.

Yeah i was thinking that. On doing a bit of research breaking it down to the seperate components it adds to about 500ish
