We have a used Cosworth shortblock with Cosworth 79mm billet crankshaft. Motor could use a refresh due to some slight cylinder wall scoring. I would recommend a set of Cosworth 99.75mm pistons and a new set of bearings.

Asking price is $3500.

Hey Mike, does this come with pistons and rods or just the block case and crankshaft?

 

It's a complete assembled shortblock with rods, pistons, crankshaft etc.

Mike

 

wow great price for that block, i believe it is $6500 new.

 

Thanks, actually this model with the billet crank retails for $9200.

Mike

 

^ haha thats better then, good luck, someone pick this up!

 

Yea the Billet crank alone retails for $3995.

I need the engine stand back hence the price

Mike

 

How many miles are on this block and what kind of power did it see. Mike, you said it would need some refreshening on the cylinder walls; why, or is it just because of normal wear and tear?

 

3,000 miles on it, motor saw 480whp and has scuffing on the cylinder walls hence my recommendation to run a slightly over piston on it and replace the bearings.

Mike

 

Oh something I should add, this motor never used a drop of oil or smoked ever. It has come to every race we have done this year on my favorite engine stand as our back up motor.

I only recommend the refresh due to if it were me that is what I would do and as I stated there are some scuffing marks on the cylinder walls.

Here are some pic's,

 

Nice block..

 

mike...would it be feasible to put this in my car as a daily driver? feel free to pm me! thanks

 

I don't see any reason why not however depending on what your ultimate goals are you might not need to spend this much on this sort of block, shoot me a PM or IM with what you have planned for your car.

If anyone locally wants to take a look at the block it's sitting here on a stand ready for any inspection, I have not taken the oil pan off so would happily do that for someone so they can inspect for any shavings etc.
