mattanna Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Just want some opinions on my Aristo, as you may have seen it needs new big end shells which will not be cheap, it is with Lucifer and i will trust his judgment, but how much would it cost to get another engine and put that in(i suppose risk of a used engine is it may go the same way?) cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could pick up another engine for around a £1k and another £300 to fit i'd say. Jezzybabes would be the one to ask for an engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Remember, if your fitting a supra enigne in place that the oil sump and some other bits will need to be changed over to the engine going in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
