T16 turbo coupe block

Post by Dom »

I need a T16 turbo block from a coupe/GTi - literally just the block...

Have got an uprated engine only to find that the no.1 bore has a huge trench dug into it - so need to swap the block for a good one.

I am only looking for a good condition block - I have to rebuild the engine from scratch now, so have no interest in ones with less-than-perfect bores, etc...

Also - I have M16 pistons - so anything requiring oversize pistons etc will not be any good, as I am not looking to buy new pistons...

Please shout me if you have anything -

Many thanks,


Dom

Anyone else nearer to Bournemouth..?

Either is fine but packing for a courier i'd need to know about, As in would it need to be on a pallet.

Unfortunately Sy can't help me... :(

So still looking for a block...

To recap - I cannot enlarge the bore (already have pistons) - so need to get my hands on a very good condition block, with near-as-dammit perfect bores...

Can anyone help me..?

Thanks,


Dom
