I have for sale my forged EJ257 short motor

Full Spec:
EJ257 Block
Wiseco pistons
K1 H-Beam Rods
STI Crank
ACL Race Bearings
Balanced Assembly
ARP Studs,11mm used.


This was built by Alan Jeffry's just short of 3 years ago
It as only covered about 6000 miles in this time,
Over the last 12 months the engine has only covered 300 miles
I have been using the car at the PaceWard MLR sprints
Me and the car finished 2nd in class and 3rd out of the Subaru's

The engine has been running 487bhp at 1.5 bar of boost,
Engine still running strong at the last round before it was removed,
Finished 2nd at the final round,

Engine is been replaced with a new forged build, to cope with 700bhp
This is the only reason the old engine was removed, as it is only rated to about 500 to 550 bhp

You will require 2.5 heads to go with this
Or modified 2.0 heads,

£SOLD SOLD SOLD

Any questions please ask

Hmm will keep my eye on this if it doesn't go quick, my new project is based on a 500/500 motor. I'm guessing its a SCD?

Bez300

iTrader: (2)

Yes it's a scd

There was one for sale just before Christmas, that was a bit fresher than mine, that sold for about £2300

New engine is a 2.5 cdb

Well plans for mine are a little more mundane than the time attack series, just track days and the odd trip to the ring. Not to say I might enter the odd sprint or hill climb I have a budget, but just not sure I can stretch to a new build just yet so this could be a happy medium.

Bez300

iTrader: (2)

Sound like this is the engine for you,
I even have a std position GT3076 up at £800
This is just going back in for some new bearings fitting, as there is a very small amount of play in them

I'll give you a shout, I'll know more by the end of the month due to tax return time. If you have a buyer before that and it goes its cool. Don't want to mess you about with false promises.

sorry to spam your thread but how you get on with K1 Rods? they decent any issues?

I have a 2ltr blob with avcs heads can this be made to fit as thinking going down the forged 2.5 route as im looking for more torque.

Bez runs this with avcs heads mate, your heads will bolt straight on. Ideally they want the chambers machining to suit the 2.5 cylinders. It can be done with or without doing this, either way it's no big deal.
After seeing your other thread I'd say this is exactly what your after. Bargain too.

Joe

Bez300

iTrader: (2)

No issues at all, just don't go above what they are rated for and you will be fine

Hi Craig, as Joe says, just require a small amount of machining,



Joe, how's your build coming on?

Bez

It's going ok mate, just getting parts together, it should all be with Andy by end of the the month, fingers crossed! You can have a nosey if your over there.

what else would I need and cost wise to get this up and running in mine??

Bez300

iTrader: (2)

You would be able to re use my 11mm ARP Bolts, so that would save you a bit,
You would require some Cosworth head gasket
Not too many more things

what would need to be done to my heads to fit and run the avcs

scoobyboy1

iTrader: (16)

Very good price!!

Been pricing up the parts for my 2.5 forged build, and the parts alone come to around £1900 which are pretty much what you have listed, Then I got to get it built which is going to cost me $$$$$

So someone getting a bargain!!

The block been pinned/reinforced?

Bez300

iTrader: (2)

No this is not pinned or closed decked

But are good for 500

Many people running 500
Some have run over

My new block is getting closed decked
Building that to run 700

like ive said what what need to be done to fit my 2ltr blob? and price wise?

joe v3sti

iTrader: (8)

Chambers machining mate and that's it! Some people fit 2.0 heads to 2.5 blocks without doing it. So technically get the required thickness gasket to achieve your desired comp ratio. There for no work apart from fresh gaskets and fluids upon bolting it together.

Joe

fez the plodder

Do the 2.0 heads have a better flow rate than the 2.5s?
I can't believe this hasn't sold yet? Mmm I'm tempted:-)

Bez300

iTrader: (2)

Sorry Craig, I thought I had replied to your other post,
I did it on my phone, it can't of gone through,
As Joe says,
Just a bit of head machine work, on the chambers,
You would have to fit your oil pump from your engine, sump
The 2lt and 2.5lt heads flow just about the same, same size valves,
The arp 11mm head bolts are included,
Your cost would be very similar to the cost of having head gaskets changed to Cosworth ones, and the cost of the engine,

Hope this helps,

Bez

Very tempted, where is the block located?

craigyp

iTrader: (5)

thanks mate
so this will give the torque im after on mine? I know this sounds stupid but what size engine will I have if short is 2.5 and rest a 2ltr??
also do many people run set ups like this??

banny sti

iTrader: (68)

Will give you a heap of midrange torque and help spool no end, this was a friend's car 2.5, md321t+ (old version) avcs heads at 1.5 bar



Will still be a 2.5 and yes a lot of people do run this setup, as 2.5 heads do not come up for sale that often

craigyp

iTrader: (5)

thanks mate..
just trying to work out costs of all the work to be done?
can anyone roughly break it down all the cost of getting this up and running in my car

Craig
I have asked Andy, from Richard Henry Motorsport to
Let me know how much it would cost you to drive in and drive out with my engine in your car all mapped and ready
As soon as he lets me know, I will let you know


Banny, thanks for the info buddy,
