Forged ej20
Hi all, I'll have very soon a forged scdb for sale but I wanted to check the general opinion of what I should price it at.
its just been rebuilt (still at the engine place)
newage sti block
new nitrided crank
acl bearings
eagle rods
ARP2000 rod bolts
supertech Pistons (new rings)
Api modified oil pump
roger Clark 11mm head studs (rcm1635)
new seals/gaskets etc
its just the 'bottom end' so you can fit your own heads etc.

pardon my ignorance but what makes it a budget spec?
I know the stock newage 2.0 sti is supposed to be pretty capable as standard so surely a rebuilt block would be a safe 500-600bhp lump? Seems to be well known branded parts used and when I priced up forging my blob sti I got quoted £3500 for a similar spec.
Just interested in what makes it worth so little?

Hmm... maybe I'll put in the car and sell both as one.
most places sell standard long/short blocks with anywhere from 50,000 -100,000 miles for £1000-1300ish, so even if it is a so called 'budget' build it's still a fresh engine with stronger than standard parts so I was hoping to put it up for more really.
