no race km, engine not tested. I purchased engine after it was taken out of car.

Just checked with my machanic who found me this engine, it wasn't out of a half cut like I thought. It was from a going R32 GTS-t. Engine purchased from another workshop who was doing some high performance stuff to the owners car and onsold this engine after it was removed. Was ensured it was a fine engine.

engine has no oil leaks, I was going to strip it and race prepare it, but I am also confident speaking with the people who I purchased it from, it's a sound engine. If I had been able to compression test the engine I probably would have listed it for $1000

:action-smiley-069: so your selling it for $690 and assuring us that its spot on and you trust your mechanic but if you were to compression test it you would want $310 more :happy:

Not trying to cause trouble just find that interesting and amusing at the same time!!!

Not at all, what i find amusing is that your stating the engine as being in excellent condition out of a running car but you dont know the compression of the engine, it hasn't had a leak down test. You said if it had been compression tested then you would ask more and that is the part i find amusing as personally dont think it helps your sale!!!

If the engine is as good as your claiming then why not ask more straight up seeing as they are harder to come by in good working order???

Oh and for the record id never buy an engine that i couldn't compression test :D

Ben, have you read all posts? I have never stated the engine is in excellent condition. I believe it a sound engine given the information from people I know and trust. So having siad that, this engine is obveiously being sold in as is condition. I could have lied to other members and said it has been tested and it's fine. So given all the facts Ben, I don't believe I could expect anyone to pay more. Does that sound logical to you?

If your not interested in buying this engine than please don't bother replying
