crossflow engine - sell or split?
luke - 23/1/10 at 07:22 PM

ive got a 1300 crossflow i originally built up for my locost but then changed my mind and went for a zetec.

Ive advertised it on here, and had no interest,so i was going to put it on ebay, but i dont think i would get anywhere near what its cost me so do you think i should split it and sell it in bits?

Its a 1300 with a 1600GT head, kent BCF2 cam, with variable cog, new timing chain, oil pump, waterpump. Aluminium rocker cover.

Cheers

I recently got £280 for a standard 1600GT crossflow on ebay - not sure if 1300's are in as much demand, but mine sure got a lot of interest....

Has it got a lead-free head?

I couldn't say, I never converted it.

I got the head off billholl. He may know but I don't think it is!

Paid £39.99 for my 1.3 with a free gearbox and a log book on ebay. A 1.3 has just sold for £121 with unleaded head.

You see that's why I think I should split it all down. I recon I could get more individually for all the parts.
