mightymetros Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I am looking at selling my engine as its time to buy a house, and a deposit is needed. ☹️ ☹️ ☹️ ☹️ ☹️ The engine is still in my metro, and can be seen runnning/tested by any potential buyers. It is a 143 vvc engine which has been modified to prodice 183bhp @ 7500rpm on Emeralds rollers. This is in my metr, and im pretty sure in a Caterham application you would be looking at near on 200bhp. I will also throw in the loom that was made up for the emerald 143bhp vvc engine big valve head, fully ported and polished Piper vvc exhaust cam Emerald ECU incorporating the vvc control Jenvey DTH Throttle bodies All belts replaced 300 miles ago Pictures available etc and power graph Offers around £3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry21p Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 wassat? you're not? and I've not driven it yet... By the way - anyone looking at this - the engine is absolutely lovely, very powerful (probably too much so for a metro without limited slip...) and a good buy. Mightymetro is a top chap and this engine has been properly looked after. Edited by - Dave21P on 26 Apr 2005 10:16:44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry21p Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 but looking at the individual parts: good vvc engine from a breaker - 1000ish? big valve porting job? emerald? tb's? emerald mapping session? assembling all of the above and running it in for someone? priceless. got to be a bargain for someone..
