quite possibly, i've seen stock rod 1.4 blocks and head assys fetch ?800! I bet it's been tweaked to get the most power out if it whilst still remaining within the cc limit.

Hmmm, lots of them do! i went with a mate to collect an engine for his, it looked a reet pile o ****e, but the guy had over ?700 worth or receipts, balanced rods, arps, pistons, headwork etc etc. However i do agree, this does look like some ebay noob.

something makes me think the very very early 1.2 had the 1.3 stuff as standard?
