Yeah he just brought it as a block. He didn't have a pistons or rods. I'm just looking to build a high hp motor for my bt1

with out an engine number its not an NA or Turbo block. Its a block. And i wouldnt say it would be worth anything more then a used block, if the old block dosnt need to be bored out it would be just the same but with engine numbers, So less hassle.

But with having no engine number u can put one on it. And out could have matching numbers to a bt1 and get heaps more for it cause it would be all matching number? ---------- Post added 05-05-13 at 21:21 ---------- Thanks everyone was very helpfull

its not marked a8? you just say that because it has the lines tapped? bad news mate. all r31's and a lot of early VL's as well as the late ones had the tapped bock. I'd rather get a block honed and cleaned and blueprinted and assembled than spend dosh on that and have to provide all the internals. probably worth 500? theres still a lot of good virgin bore blocks out there.
