Here it is... The Greatest Opportunity.... Honest !
I brought this motor about a year ago almost... I brought it off someone that used to rally 205's and this was his spare engine which he had stored for a few years as they are bloody solid units... no tinny cylinder liners, pure cast baby ! ! Anyway, as he never used it in his car and time got on, he decided to sell it... so I brought it off him with the idea of building my planned 350hp output unit (400hp capable block), this is easily done, and will share the details with the buyer if they are interested?!
I have in pieces a 50k mile XU10J2TE lump that I am going to recon, pistons / rods / crank / head are absolutely MINT ! So are the bores... well what else would you expect for a 50k motor. What I'm going to do, is re-shell it, new rings, complete seal kit, comp headgasket, new water pump, timing kit, even leads and plugs.
What will come with the engine, everything you will need to put it in your 406, low milage drive shafts, intermediate bearing housing, top engine mount, thermostat, auxillary belt, power steering pump, AC compressor, alternator, hell even a starter motor, loom and an ECU... but the best bit... a freshly serviced Turbo, which can be in what ever spec you want.... standard, stage 1, 2 or fully blown Stage 3.
Pictures of the stripped Lump will follow as soon as I can get in the workshop, but for now I'm open to offers.. and please keep them sensible, you will be buying a MINT set up for any conversion or upgrade.. hell, if you want to buy the parts I will build you a 400hp capable block
at a cost of course ! ! Obviously this all comes at a price and no warranty, I'm not a business I'm an enthuisiast like most of you.Only thing is I've had the same car for 6 odd years and my project plans are fading in favour of something different, a change.... so this will potentially be the first of 2 engines I will have for sale... in the near future, possibly!
