Probably wouldn't hurt to post where you are and approximate price. I would love the engine but I'm betting you're not in southern Alberta

This is a very good engine for someone. Graham has had a bit of misfortune and cannot take delivery of this engine to put into his project car.

Here is the current state of the build:

The engine is only awaiting final Dyno work. It could be shipped upon my return from Lemans if it was purchased from Graham promptly.

Here are some specs...
The engine has 9.6:1 CR, RAT 9500 Cam, LE 200 heads, Deluxe cylinder and piston kit in 96mm, Ceramic lifters, RAT/SDS EFI with Jenvey 40mm T/B and stainless steel Bellcrank linkage. I could give any interested party full details of the build- no problem.

This engine is a near mirror image of the "Hot VWs Type 4 Torquer", but with EFI and more exotic components as well as better balance and blueprint. This is a good deal for someone who does not wish to hang out on my wait list for months. This same engine would cost at todays prices 17.5K (Graham had his price locked in from over a solid year of being on my wait list)

As far as the life of the engine goes- There are no guarantees of any engine's longevity. While I have many engines that are not built as well as this one that have logged many more miles than 100K, all it takes is bad fuel or mis tuning to make the engine's life come to a premature end. This is why all my engines are sold without warranty.

The engine could be shipped directly from my facility, no problems there.
