mk bec buyers help?

Right people! I'm looking at an mk indy tomorrow with a gsxr k2 engine, I'm taking a mechanic with me so the car side of things is covered but im more after a buyers guide for bec engine sevens.

Cant find anything so don't know what to look out for, engine noise wise drive train etc not a clue here so could someone give me some advice or a link to a buyers guide?

Anything is appreciated!

If you have a link to the advert or a location and description of the car it may be known to members on here.

Try and get a test drive and make sure the gearbox is ok, not jumping out of second and third gear. expect it to be quite noisy, you get a fair bit of clunking from the prop/diff... mine did anyway !!. engine wise just check it like you would a car, sludgy oil, water, leaks , knocking and rattles etc.

The car is in carnforth. Couldnt see any pics on the website, besides it would need a full rollcage for motorsport which it doesn't have.

Looks like you got that for a good price even if you didn't haggle the price down any further. Take it steady until you get used to the power and handling..... BEC's can bite........
