I am having a complete engine build done in the US from scratch using Cosworth components. The idea being I get a complete Evo IX crate motor which we can 'rob' the parts required for the build and then I can sell the rest in the UK.
Second hand Evo IX engines in th UK are trading for around £6000.00 so you can see why I would rather buy in the US
Mitsubishi UK are not that bad they have just given me a new gearbox after 3rd gear let go
cheers

the exchange rate is about the only thing in the UK's favour just now.
Looked at doing an engine build in the UK and most quote approached £22,000
for an output of around 650bhp at the flywheel so it was a no brainer to start looking across the pond
