Fozzie Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Engines and gearboxes come up quite often on here from breakers. Gearboxes usually go for between £50 - £150ish depending on condition but it varies alot. Engines are usually £250 - £450ish without ancillaries, again depending on condition. The price difference is usually about 3-4x more for a used forged engine, but they start at about £2000 from a trader like Racetech and Tuning Developments. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5T4R7ET N/A Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 you will some people selling used forged engines for around 1000-1300, but you need to know who has done the build with what components and if it has been properly run in. most get their own built for knowing its been done the way it should be. as above getting a standard used engine £300-500 is possible, but can prove difficult as good ones are getting harder to source. whats wrong with the engine and gearbox in yours? or you doing some other type of project?
