Has it been used
Who built it

Yes used it for about a year in my mk1 Forester. I built it myself about 2half years ago. ACL bearings rebore and honed no head studs It's done about 10000 miles with lots of oil changes and running a very safe 280bhp

You say you built it yourself, Id be more interested in what sort of background you have in engine building etc, as with most engines your buying into the engine builders experience and warranty they give etc , and obviously you would/or I would expect to pay more if someone like EngineTuner had built it!! :thumb:

Been in motor trade for 20 years been playing with car and engines all my life first engine I built was a mk2 escort RS2000 custom All the engineering was done by a guy in ringmer who a great engine machinist
