Photos here: https://imgur.com/a/Mi8xqKC

73.5mm bore A+ block with CMS and decent high tensile bolts
MiniSpares C-STR312 ‘Mega’ 73.5mm pistons which use Omega rings
The bores show no discernible signs of wear and there is no lip.

Very nicely worked MSPD crank & rods - excellent condition crank tail. Rod bolts are ARP.
Big ends are at STD. The one big end cap I took off shows that the bearings here are in really good order and would go again.
Mains bearings are +0.010" - do show some signs of wear and would possibly benefit from the journals having a polish.

SW5 cam (reground on KC256). No followers.

Water pump is MiniSpares Evo type.
Std A+ push rods (stored in number order to they can go back in the correct places).
Std duplex timing gears
I will provide gasket set.


SOLD

I can take some, but they'll just show an engine in a car!

About 8k overall but has been rebuilt at least once in that time - it started life with a Calver cam but the SW5 went in at about 2.5k miles.
Head was refurbed about 500 miles ago.

Having thought about it, I think I'm a bit heavy on the price so I’m dropping it to £1200. I will include in that a MiniSpares AJM100MS gasket kit.

Flywheel assembly now £200 (over £300 new)

Then, apart from carbs/exhaust you'd have the engine in the same spec as me for the 100bhp.

Everything above, now £1500 (original post edited to reflect this)

Regarding your 12.30 post saying you were reducing the price, it still looks like £1500 for the lot as in your first add

There’s no gearbox as part of what’s listed.
I could supply a rod change one as an extra, but it would need to be considered as needing a re-build.
