Theyre quite reasonably priced Fab.
I like the way theres no price on the website though, If you have to ask how much - you can't afford them

I seriously doubt it!

Not sure about reasonable Paul, once you buy the crank you have to buy the rods as standard ones dont fit after that you have to buy the special pistons to suit the rods!

well, it looks easier to make that crank to me, i'd take a stab at 1k for the crank, 800 for the rods, 500 for the piston's so about £2299.99 total.

About 1k more me thinks

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

I think i will still be sending my spare crank and rods to carl to work on

As i know i can't afford them!! with all the defence cut backs and all that. *oh well* *oh well*

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

Throw a rod and you can achieve much the same effect without the added expense *hehe!*

lol

the swifty crank, rods and pistons are a work of art but i wouldnt pay it,
now im the first person to cry about ditching the ageing aseries, its not a mini if its not got a mini engine bla bla but i would rather go for a more modern engine than put 3k more than i already have in to this one

Yes i moved to the darkside *happy*

Didn't that break a crank last year? Or are we talking about a different engine here?
