I got an engine off ebay the other day. Just wondering what you lot think?

(1)The head is vmax stage5 race with 36x32mm valves, 30cc. Any good? Pistons are omega 15cc, what boost can I run?

(2)It came with a 4speed SC CR syncro box. Will it last?

(3)The crank has 12G1505 and DH38AW on it. What is it from?

(4)The rods have 12G4114/5 A 27 on them. What are they from?

I'll be happy with about 180bhp out of this if posable, will the bottom end hold up?

Thanks

Who did the 4 bolt centre main on your other engine then? I have not seen photos of any other ones done, the one on my engine looks like this-



Is yours stepped as mine is, towards the outer pair of bolts, or is it flat all the way across??

Did you get the outer caps done as well at the same time?

I am also interested in your rods, where did you source those from, I did a bit of investigation into uprated rods but could not seem to get any reliable info.

On the back of the oil pump? It is just the steel backplate?

I only got it for the head, pistons, turbo, carb and gearbox which is all unused. I striped it all down, and it a aint seized anyway, but I don't think I'll use the block as its a linned one so thats going in the skip tomorrow along with the crank.
