Listed as Ford! He won't sell it to plebs with that start price or serious buyers with the shite description so has just wasted his listing fees. would be better off writing a proper parts list and also who built it.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

At a guess, JRE??
tbh, if you want info, call him. Prob saves all the nova/corsa owners wasting his time with "will it fit ma nova m8"
Looks like thats in a Mk2 Escort as well. Its a popular conversion.
Still, £9k for a 15 year old engine.............

agreed on shite description, but id just give JRE themselves a ring if serious and ask them what they've done to it. id like to see anyone get a 300bhp xe for that money tbh. so if proven then quite a fair price

JRE is local to me and has most prob put brief thing for a reason.
people in the game for an engine like that should know about JRE's work and it is top notch
he is always filled up with work and makes loads of 15k plus engines.
the workshop is awesome, i was up there speaking to him several times about my let and he sorted me a few bits on the cheap

Its a JRE engine everyone in proper rallying knows about them, there is no point in a description as people will have a good idea of the work done anyway.
