there's a bloke from Germany selling the GK inlet manifold in the engine parts sale section i think. think his username is GuddiG40...

there's an ashley 4 branch on ebay atm, has a lambda hole which you won't need but u can just put a bolt in to seal it

GT camshafts come up frequently, keep you are eyes peeled :)

hmmmm, i think my head gasket is on its way out!

loads of oil leaking from there and the coolant is brown, so yeah!

I'm going on holiday from the 1st of july till the 16th, but i will need mainly just the engine for when i get back and then i can do the rest gradually over the summer. car should hopfully last till then!

so priority is now ABD engine!

cheers

I've got the top half of an abd if you are interested I'm having the bottom end to put a gt top end on it :-p

i would, but i really just want a whole engine!

preferably two...

lol

one to put in my car and get it running, then one to put the GT cam in and port polish it with the trusty old Dremel...

then sell the unmodified one.

but yeah, ill settle for one!

how much am i realistically looking at to get an alright ABD engine?

cheers

got a golf mk3 1.4, on the road, taxed and tested,

you can have for £150, strip what you need and

weigh in what's left ?

reliable runner, recently done nott'm to leeds

and a mate has been using it as a daily, now

surplus to requirements.

ng14 6pe, near nottingham.

oh and i have a g40 inlet somewhere

you can have for £25.

i cant help with what you need but pricewise, i paid £150 for my ABD lump, 50k miles generally good nick. for GK manilfold i paid 60, my DMTL carb came with the car. pretty similar engines coming along here!

Ahhhh, man!

how many miles on the clock?

I'm seriously considering this!

but i already have 2 rover 200's on the drive in bits, plus my golf and a whole load of bikes and bmxs in the garage! so i dont really have the space for another car

if theres anyone who wants the rest of this car ill buy it, take the engine and you can have whats left for £50 (or less!)

cheers

tbh i can't remember the mileage,

i bought it off here a couple of months

ago as a spare motor when me or my mates

needed something, if you do a search its

the satin black one with a flame job.

its a cracking lil runner though, think i've

had it past 80 on B roads, and for a big-ish

car and a lil lump it pulls well.

t+t to september iirc.

hmmmm, I'm pretty tempted

depends on the milage though

does it have a 4 or 5 speed box?

cheers

i'll have a look tomorrow night,

5 speed box.

  • Author

would the 5 speed box fit straight onto my 4 speed mounts?

again, depends on the milage, but i would happily buy the engine and bits off you! i just dont want/need the whole car.

ill speak to a couple of my mates and see if they want the rest of the car for spare bits.

cheers

TBH £150 is a good price there, altho i live near sanburns in coventry, they do mail order and i picked up an abd for £95+vat
