Clear Out (phase 2) - X-flow Engine Bits

AS I CAN'T EDIT THIS POST, I'LL TRY TO KEEP IT UP TO DATE IN SUBSEQUENT POSTS.

All items can be collected from YO30 2AA (Linton on Ouse, Yorks) or FY8 5DR (Lytham St Annes, Lancs)

More stuff for sale. If you think my prices are too high, make me an offer.

Item 1: 1300cc Cylinder head. Very good condition with standard inlet and exhaust valves fitted. Inlet threads good and exhaust studs fitted, with good threads. Spark plug threads good. Numbers stamped on the top are 1k1 37 and T11. This head is ready to go and has previously been used as a spare for a racing Locost, completing 3 or 4 races.

£80 collected (can post at cost)

Item 2: 1300cc Cylinder head. Good condition BUT there is the remains of a drill in one of the exhaust stud threads and approximately 8mm of thread remains beyond this. It was like it when I got it! No valves or studs fitted, all other threads appear good. Spark plug threads good. Numbers stamped on the top are 8E12 and 37.

£20 collected (can post at cost)

Item 3: 1300cc Cylinder head. This head will require a skim as there is some water damage. With a 2-3mm skim this would be removed (and the valves would be raised to improve the compression ratio too). Exhaust studs fitted and inlet threads good. Spark plug threads good. Numbers stamped on the top are 8E12 T15 and 37.

£30 collected (can post at cost)

Item 4: 1300cc crankshaft At 53.3mm/48.9mm = -.020"/-.020" = 20 thou re-grind on all journals. Overall OK condition for a quick polish and then to be slapped into an engine, but if I was racing it or building a 7500rpm screamer I'd take it to 30 thou.

£20 collected (can post at cost)

Item 5: Kent Cams BCF3 camshaft I think this is the biggest lift/duration you can get without having to machine the cylinder head. Great condition and hasn't been used that much.

£40 collected (can post at cost)

Item 6: AE Oil pump Been used, but not for long. Kept as a spare for racing.

£20 collected (can post at cost)

Other bits that don't need a full description (all prices collected, can post at cost):

1300cc rocker gear and 8 1300cc push rods - OK used condition - £10 collected
1300cc oil pick-ups (3 of) - £5 each collected
Timing cover (731M6059AA) includes new oil seal - £8 collected
Inlet manifold (711F9425HC) - £15 collected
Timing chain (used but seems to do the job) - £5 collected
Engine back plate (bottom half) - £5 collected (2 available)
Clutch and pressure plate. Used, but good for a spare - £6.12 collected


Things I don't know what it's worth so I'm looking for offers:

1300cc sump - a bit of light surface rust from storage
+90 thou pistons, include gudgeon pins and circlips, but no rings








8 valve washers (2.9mm thick). Fit under standard valve springs to increase effecetive spring rate

That's it for now.
