chris a Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Matt, What condition the dampers and ARB??, plus where are you Chris A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackbirdman Posted April 22, 2002 Author Share Posted April 22, 2002 Chris The ARB and dampers are probably 10,000 miles old. A bit worn but OK. All parts are near Ipswich, except for the Diff. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlander Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Hello Matt, I might be interested in the engine depending on price and spec. What ancillary components does it come with? Was it originally in a Caterham? Does ot come with exhaust manifold? All the Best. Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackbirdman Posted April 22, 2002 Author Share Posted April 22, 2002 Martin I paid £250 for the engine about two years ago. No carbs or alternator otherwise complete with clutch etc. Would accept £200. It was in a 7 and is standard 1700 supersprint spec. I got it as a spare but never used it. It was removed as part of a Zetec upgrade with less then 20,000 miles on it. No proof of that however. I have a complete 4:1 system with a repackable carbon silencer but the carbon tube needs replacing or repairing. I'll throw this in for another £50.

lowlander Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Hello Matt, Thanks for the reply. I'll have a good think about it and let you know. I live in Scotland and the cost of driving down to Ipswich means that it all becomes very expensive. Would you be O.K. to post the parts assuming that we can agree on price? All the Best. Martin.
