rwd sump for xe ( what's it worth )?

[BIGS]

As above ive got a rwd sump for a c20xe but havent a clue what it is worth to sell. Anyone know:confused:

[General Baxter]

plonk it on ebay with manta or something in the title

[BIGS]

Yea i was thinking about ebay. but i thought id try some websites first as dont want to pay what they charge. so see what its worth then try escort, manta and other rwd websites

[Saloony]

Pm me too... im doing a manta xe..

[Philsutton]

Should be worth a fair bit, all the manta 1.8 parts have gone up loads due everyone buildgin rwd xe's.

[BIGS]

Yea your right Phill. Ive just been on a few website/clubs and the sump on its own goes for around ?150 and with the rwd mount its around ?200. I did not expect that plus ive got the rwd mount aswell !

[Philsutton]

If you happened to have the 1.8 gearbox and flywheel ect... you would have been sitting on a small fortune.

[BIGS]

yea but unfortunately all i have are the sump, mounts and flywheels and clutch. So i know all that is worth atleast ?150

doesn't everyone just find a scrapped omega 16v?

[Philsutton]

^^ have thought the same to be honest but the ecotec sumps are very different (not sure on the rear drive ones) and most omegas Ive seen are autos. Still a omega box will fit the xe but, it might be due to the size? or something

[fearless]

I sold one on ebay years ago - fetched good money - just make sure you mention Escort, RWD, Rally and C20XE in your ebay advert and you'll be quids in !!


Last few I watched were

I've got one on a spare engine in the workshop :thumb: so guess where that will end up

I used to have an omega estate 2.0 16v with a manual box. it managed to make a big car go very quick. then the cat packed up & a mechanic sort of decatted it & it flew..... most rwd conversions need the sump to be hacked about a bit to clear a crossmember.

ah alot a lads are using omage bits now, eco sump bolts on just needs slight modding. and the box fits but the bulk head needs modding/baitinglol the manta 1.8 sump would be worth around 100 pound atleast on its own.
