I have one BUT the idler pully mounting bolt is damaged (to left of crank ,got caught in a front end clout)plan is to use another block (which I have)/and build it into that engine only done 55k from a 98 uk turbo (still a phase 1 1/2 i.e non intercooler mounted dump valve)
buy it as is if you like or wait till its built into the GOOD block ,mail me if need be..jase
