[quote][i]Originally posted by corsafreak[/i] i'm sure it could be done for 1K if the engine came with a donor car,that car was broke and the parts sold. keeping the engine,box,brakes. driveshafts can be sourced and made from salvage if you know what to look for ;). engine front mount and antiroll bar spacers can also be fabricated fairly easily. the throttle body inlet adapter can also be made diy easily (i did it :D), then fit an ecotec pipe which is about £20, cheap air filter for £25. exhaust can be mated up to the existing system with a bit of welding. that just leaves the suspension which most cars will have already uprated and will handle the engine. i spent more than 1K but rebuilding of me engine and timing belt,clutch etc cost me about £700. my engines like new but if you took a runner out of the donor car and fitted nowt to it other than a timing belt i would imagine it can be done for 1K, he's probably making about £300-350 per engine.
