Forged bits
Ive got some forged goodies here that i need help valuing, if someone can help itll be appreciated
Brand new in box 93mm cosworth forged pistons
Used Eagle rods
Used RCM modified oil pump
Rear thrust crank (standard size)
Open deck block (rear thrust)
Theres basically everything here to build a forged short motor barr a set of bearings.
Anyone have any idea as to what its worth as a whole and individually?

If they are used, they can't be mint. Possibly in good condition.
Do you want someone to agree with you or give their own opinion?
£800 and that's if by chance someone wants all the parts. I sold off forged parts a while back and had to split all the parts. The costs I gave were in the ball park for what i got. Most won't touch used parts for the sake of saving a £'s on parts when the risk is so high with whole cost of an engine build. Unless the buyer is building the engine themselves. Most engine builders won't touch used part no matter how mint they look.

The rods are £600 to buy new i believe and the pistons sell at £700 wherever you buy them from so i figured about £1200 would be a good price, do you think a grand would be more in the ball park

the only thing really thats worth any money is the pistons as there new. i personaly wouldent use the pump or rods or crank as they probs come from a failed engine. rods will need checking and so will the crank, repolish, rods will poss need a re hone which adds to the cost so may aswel buy new. someone on a budget build may take the chance. how much you want for the pistons???
