Anyone want a bit of engine p**n for a Sunday evening? Don't think I've seen this posted here before...

Not much love for this then

I thought it was fascinating

I came.

Very good. I do like an engine build.

This however, is a bit more “arty”, and undoubtedly nicer sounding.

I didn't know you could buy an APR crate motor. What's the retail on that then?

I doubt you’d see much change out of £5k, and you’d need to supply an engine for them to rebuild...

Not quite what I'd call a crate motor then.

I saw recently that you can now buy a 700bhp Hellcat crate engine for around $20k

****** hell, the list price of an entire challenger Hellcat is only $65k.

Stop it. Im already drooling over the Chevy and Mopar V8’s, having visions of completing my very own project binky.

The engine's the only thing of any value, the rest of it's just American pig-iron
