Default EJ20 engine built by API

I have the engine from my Type R for sale which has been built by API engines.
This was built with forged internals ,uprated oil pump ported heads etc When i
had it built i made sure that the internal could take a lot of power and this engine i was told would take 500BHP +
with the right turbo and remap. I was running a very safe just under 400BHP with no problem.

£ 3000.00 ovno

I'm asking less then half what the engine cost me and i do have all the invoices to show the work
which can be checked with David at API.

I was overtaking a skip lorry when it's load feel of the back and flattend the roof of the car for me so i wasn't happy. If you know anyone that wants the engine let me know as i only covered 1500 miles with it.

You won't need to, if it's only done 1500 miles since a rebuild and something fell on the roof of the car - it'll be fine.

The engine is out of the car now but the shell is still sat on my drive so you can see the damage it has and that it is no where near the engine bay but i can say with my hand on my heart that the engine is spot on. No smoke no knocks etc . It only ever got it's first oil change at 1000miles by API and only covered another 500 mile after that as it was always a second car. I.E Toy lol

Due to being messed around by some people who wanted the engine to fit into a kit car it is back up for sale at a new price of £2500.
