As above R1 engine kit wanted 5JJ OR 5pw full kit including clocks

Is this to replace a knackered engine? You realise the 5jj and 5vy are totally different motors?
5jj and 5pw are very similar, if you already have a 5jj I think the 5pw would replace it easier
I have a 5jj engine kit spare it's a cracking motor all stuff to make it work call 07737814426
5JJ 5PW 5VY any will be ok at the point in the build where i am able to have either
think would prefer later inj type engine for the few extra pony's!
Different ways of looking at it 5pw better torque and gearing so I've heard compared to 5vy.
5pw is the first injection model

5PW sounds the way forward power commander, air filter and a good set up should be good fun! 
Don't believe them! More power and more revs wins.
Hobbsy is probably the man to ask. His car is 5PW and he rode in mine (5VY) for a few days when his broke in the Alps last year. He's probably
best placed to compare.
From what I've seen in RGB, a 30kg heavier car with 5VY engine performs the same as the lighter car with 5PY. In other words the power advantage
of the later engine is worth the same as 30kg weight advantage.

What he means is the 30kg heavier car with 5VY engine performs the same as the lighter car with 5PY. In other words the power advantage of the later engine is worth the same as 30kg weight advantage.
