OK guys, i've been given an oppurtunity to get what i think is a pretty cheap RB31DET bottom end (block).
What i'm asking is the maximum any of you guys would pay for this, here are the specs:
-VL RB30 NA Block, deck has been honed and the bores have been made 20 thou oversize for the bigger pistons (3.1Litre)
-Hypa-tech pistons brand new and 20 thou over size (makes it a 3060cc I believe) Their semi-forged and ceramic coated
-Rods are standard but have been shot peened and balanced to make them all the same weight etc.
-Crank is standard but has been ground and balanced.
-Block has been grub screwed for strength.
-Has all new Welch plugs etc and all new bearings
-All the oil and water galleries have been cleaned and the oil galleries have been modified for better use for turbo's? (not sure on that one either)
-ALL it needs is an oil pump, water pump, sump and head obviously which i already have to complete the bottom end, everything is together and has all been done by a reputable engine builder here in Adelaide.
So my question is how much would you pay and any other comments are more than welcome!
