2.0 Pinto value?
lotus_esprit_s1 - 19/12/12 at 06:59 AM

I am contemplating an engine change in my Westfield, can anyone give me a rough estimate on what I might get for my current engine if I was to sell it? Would it be better to sell it as one lump or split it up into components?

It is a 2.0 Pinto, Burton big valve head and Burton cam with vernier pulley, twin 40 Dellortos on manifold. Alloy sump (Ford RS?), Lumenition ignition. Westfield downpipes and 4-1.

Thanks.

Hi, i've just see one similar go for £145 with 40's on and a kent cam and "mild head work" (whatever that meant)

Mind you i've seen some asking stupid money for others just because they have been obviously steam cleaned to gleaming.

This is always a trickey one. One went on ebay the other week for £2000+ and another the same week failed to sell.
I would put it on piston heads rather than flee bite
