All together im guessin about £4000 on engine maybe more!!! BUT that because its my second C16XE i had to buy it £500 then found out it was fucked, its had 3 re-builds, the 3rd is happenin at the mo and is the last one so decided to have everything done, and aint had the bill yet but its gonna be well over £1000, it was meant to be finished tomoz, but the new date is tuesday due to Engine development limited slacking on the engineerin side, dunno how its gonna go to be honest i will put up approx pirces of stuff new but i got my chip and manifold second hand
Mantzel power box £595
Mantzel chip about £300
Manifold £335
Exhaust system about £280
Viper induction £250
leads £80
ARP's £75
SBD idler pulleys £110
then everything else i carnt accurately price

yeah i know matey, it was a hard decision to make with the C20XE sitting there, i thought i have started so i will finish i didnt want to pay a load of money for an engine i wernt gonna use, if the C20XE had its gear box and shafts i think the storey might have been different lol
