How much would I need to be looking at for a full 2.35 build including cdb. Sorry if this has been discussed before but I have searched and can't find an answer for a complete start to finish build. If someone has the time a shopping list would also be much appreciated. Cheers dave

 

How long is a piece of string, a decent block on standard bores is 1000-1200
Plus machining, plus components. Depends on what your building it for.
What are you building it for?
How much power would you like to run

 

got to a tuner and ask, expect 10k +

 

As above, it's a how long is a piece of string question. The engine is only the beginning, the ancillaries and turbo,ECU will also cost a small fortune.

You really need to speak to a few tuners so they can get an idea of what it is you want and come up with a spec and price it all up for you.

The three I'd be talking to are;
Scooby Clinic
Engine Tuner
API

In no particular order, but as above expect to be at the very,very least £10k lighter and more realistically £15k by the time you have a car that runs stops and goes around corners as you'd want it to.

And if you want the best of everything probably double that.

 

I priced one up about 2 years ago, nothing mad, just a nice 500hp... £17k+

 

Check this out, 35k in parts alone I believe

Personally i wouldn't use API now Davids moved on

 

I helped fud source parts for his 2.35 on his race RA, the full long engine inc worked avcs heads cost him £12k

 

guessing thats not inc ecu, turbo setup etc etc?

 

Just for the engine

 

£10-£15K on the engine itself (that's the long engine, no ancillaries) depending on overall spec, then up to £20-£30K by the time you add all the supporting mods to make full use of it, depending on the spec of the donor or project car it is all being fitted to.

 

Did that include it built Banny?

 

Yep fully built ready to drop in

 

Depends on starting point, but from standard car near 20k to get someone else to do it.

 

What are you using the car for

 

Why is that ?

 

As said chap, Now david's moved on taken his expertise with him.

 

We are building four of these right now, all welcome to call me on 01752 345880 office hours for a chat. No obligation to buy anything!

 

Is it possible to use standard avcs heads and valve train on a 2.35?

 

yes it is

 

seemed to recall i "helped" just a little also.............

 

Just a little as you built it twice

 

should have been back at the end of this season also for a refresh apart form he's now scattered the parts far and wide.............

wonder what he'll get next

 

I may consider a 2.35 next, or a 2.1

 

My next build will be a 2.35

 

Im trying my hardest not to add it all up lol... Its a lot of the small items and the things you dont think about that quickly add up too..

 

^^^That picture sure brings back some memories,and their not good ones.Good luck with your project mate.SJ.

 

Another good options a fully built trick 2.1
Built heads, cams, full mashings
I know a couple of people running them to very very good effect

 

Definitely, can attest that my 2.1 was very good! So good that I'm building another one!

I'm so excited to get it back as I had a "basic" ODB standard cams etc etc etc build on the last one, that did 535+hp for 30k miles, the new one with the all singing and dancing heads and cdb etc I have high hopes for.....

 

It's the only option for you, so that its in keeping with the rest of the build
Which to be honest I've stopped commenting on, due to sounding like a stuck record. There's only so many times I can say I love it haha. Fair play to both you and Dave mate

Sounds good J, you'll have to let us know how you get on with that?
When will it be done by?
