Oi Glenn, need an engine for the next project?

certainly will be fun :D im having one of my ex's (she does transport design) sculpt me a shell with a lid , kinda black brick style. might even stretch to carbon fiber if funds are available. hopefully it will be a little more aerodynamic than the average se7en.

Now about going for the good old fashioned Bonneville drop tank stream liner style? but widened slightly so it can accomadate two people.

"It has been in storage for a number of years, and would need stripping and checking before running"

"the company has determined a reserve price of £30k on this auction"

Is that some kind of joke ?

Who would pay £30,000 for a shagged 750bhp engine, needing hourly rebuilds ?

its more of a show piece i think.... and worth it as a collectors item.

I think so, yes.

You can get a reliable 750bhp for much less money than that, if that's what you want. Although it'll be a damn-site bigger and heavier :)
