Post by: physicsfool on November 13, 2014, 03:16:51 PM
Sorry about this chaps but its making way for a G conversion
Looking to sell a GT conversion;

    Polo GT engine and 5 speed close ratio box
    Ported & polished cylinder head
    Schrick 268 cam, custom PPP map
    Pipex cone filter
    S/S 4-2-1 manifold

Current mileage is 171K, P&P head and Schrick cam were fitted at 152k with new tappets & new valve stem seals, new timing belt & new water pump.

Oil and filter were done in the last 6 months.

Conversion will also be sold with petrol tank and fuel pumps as well as engine bay loom and any other sections needed.

Rolling roaded at Aldon and have the sheets to prove the 100bhp claim.

It is currently still in the mk2 shell so any serious buyers are welcome to test drive it,

Located in Malton yo17, North Yorkshire

Looking for ~£450

I think your probably keeping the rolling shell, but let me know if you ever decide to get rid, I'm only in York

Could I be cheeky and ask for a scan of the dyno sheet please? Purely because it's got one of our chips in, I'd like to see where it made peak power etc.

Any chance you would sell the gearbox on it's own?

Pretty much flogged the lot now, just waiting for someone to sort postage on the block.

So many time wasters trying to sell that engine. Price was good, i have made a good bit more breaking it which wasn't my aim but had no where to store it.

Dropping the G engine into the Mk2 today so its all go...
