Rb30 Blocks

[Messiah]

Starting a build, and i'd prefer to avoid buying a whole r31

So who's got a r31 rb30 block or engine and wants to part with it?

and yes i tried the wtb thread

for an rb30 block??? your dreaming, i can get a whole r31 for $500

[SECURITY]

you're looking for an rb30 series 2 block out of a VL or r31 - its the same thing. it just needs to have the oil drain on the LHS (turbo side) of the motor.

There was few on ebay last time I looked

Bah! it wasnt a stupid question, it was quite straight forward really.

Thanks to all of you who offered useful responses.

Security : yup i have that noted, i'm angling for a 31 block as they're the same spec but i suspect they'd have copped less abuse than a vl.

Deano, fair call... i havent bothered contacting them yet, i was trying to avoid dealing with someone who has a commercial interest in money making, a few lads on here have had some lying around and have let them go for very low prices.

MizSxy I've never been able to bring myself to buying parts off ebay, it gives me the willies.
