Are you doing a 500+bhp build?

Tony is asking this as unless your going over the power stated a closed deck is pointless and a waste of money,put it towards the internals on the build mate

True but atleast it will give you more options
I might know someone with a CDB going for £370

Yes, he does.
It's the best/strongest you can get - so good for well over 500+ - should you go there now, or in the future...

FWIW the Classic open deck block has no problem working over 500 bhp but by comparison the semi open deck 2.5 can have block issues at that power level.

I sold mine yesterday for £400 which had low compression but the block was in good condition.
