I have a damaged Bore so am looking for a replacement block. A complete S2 engine would also be considered. Suggestions welcome. |

If the other cylinders and all the pistons are serviceable it may be cost effective to have one Alusil liner fitted. |

I'm told it will cheaper to replace the whole engine or the block pistons. The only people who have an S2 engine are Douglas valley and they want £1200 delivered for it - with no warranty. They say it is from a car with a rear shunt - but they also have another one on their site with a front end shunt. Not sure which one I'd end up with and not keen on them due to their reputation. Too much money for no warranty anyway Was chasing a noise in my engine and had the cam olloweres etc changed - only to find noise turned out to be damaged piston and bore. I'm told you need one bore could be redone and a new piston in place. But this is apparently a bit of a compromise as all 4 bores should be done - then you have a the problem if the other 3 pistons don't fit properly due to wear or distortion. The top of the engine is fine So stuck for the moment and don't want to go the DV route... |

I don't blame you, a used engine is a bit of a lottery. There are breakers charging ridiculous prices for worn parts, and repairable cars are being broken because they are worth more in bits. Keep an eye on ebay. |
