focus rs engine

i have a focus rs at work needing a new engine due to incorrect mapping and cyl 2,3 with damaged pistons.the rest is fine (block,bores etc)just a few marks in the combustion area of the head on those cylinders.replacement is costing just over 2k. (customers request) plus labour.Any interest in the old unit?

no its head,cams and block complete with internals plus sump.Two pistons req and maybe a light skim on the head and away you go a low compression zetec ready to take 300 bhp+

Indeed it would. Some hint about the likely price would too.

ST as in Focus ST not Focus ST170 which was a tuned zetec. The ST has a similar 5 pot volvo engine as the new RS.

The old RS was a 4 pot turbo, new one is now 5 pot.

Confusing?
