No oil leaks that i can remember.I haven't felt the need to open the engine up as i know the spec (it's there for everone to see in the TMD spring car magazine feature) the rocker cover was swapped for one the same colour but with the TMD logo on that was the only thing done. As opening these up can sometimes cause a leak i didn't want to open it but if someone is here with cash and they was to do that before they take it that's there call.I have not got a compression tester but happy for any buyer to come a test the engine i do however have a bore sope so happy to show the bores not tried it yet but this might also be a way through the sump plug of showing the bottom end!Can add more pictures if needed there is a few on my build thread that is linked from the first post.

shorty Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Im in the same boat, massive spec engine and no paper work but tbh dude any one who doubts the engine shouldnt buy it simple, those of us that kniw of it know its a great engine and imo priced to cheap. if the word of sevral longterm members isnt as good as paper work and the offer of a bore camera inspection then i dont know what is!! Taking a perfectly good engine apart for no reason seems silly to me.Also no biggy on the hoses ;) let me know if they dont sell for some bizzare reason. Link to post Share on other sites
