	Ooooh some tasty units on there! Some are a bit pricey though - 2k for that Jag lump!! Doubt it'd cost that much from a breakers (if you could find one that is!) That's what irritates me about eBay sometimes - people have silly ideas about what stuff is worth, and as the saying goes... it's only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. Maybe it's me though - perhaps I expect something for nothing ;D. But to me that's what the Bay is all about - getting stuff for peanuts!

	Highest bhp/litre for a stock n/a engine aren't they? 9000rpm too if I recall correctly... *n

	The Volvo engine would be nice in an Amazon I reckon, although the turbocharged T5 version would be even better! Anyone else think an S2000 engined MGB would be interesting? Makes a worthy alternative to the 3.5 Rover!

	Now that sounds very interesting indeed revloution, Like your style. also would sound awsome, bit pricey that motor though would be better to find a rear shunt car

	Honda s2000 2.0ltr 16v vtec 240bhp engine and gearbox c/w ancileries, wiring loom and ecu. the engine is still in the car and can be seen running if required collection is required within 7 days of the auction ending 500 sheets! I'd do it if I had the money (and an MGB ) ...Or you could go race-spec *n

	True that BGTMidget, what you want is one that's found its way into a ditch or something, but is mechanically sound. You could do with transmission as well I suppose, because I doubt the BMC gearbox would appreciate the enormous revs involved and the additional power!

	you can get a supercharger kits and turbo kits from hks for them and if you fiddle about with them you can get around 500 bhp from them then add a hundred shot of nos and youve around 600 bhp from a 2 litre see max power is good something other than boobies

	True, but I for one wouldn't get insurance for a car with 500bhp plus Nitrous oxide, even if it was a classic! ;D ;D ;D ;D (Besides, it would take some degree of talent to handle something like that on a backroad! ;D ;D ;D)
