If Johnny Boat Dude doesn't want to swap powerheads has anyone got an XR2 powerhead for sale for reasonable money as I fancy a bit of F200 ? Or do you think anyone would ever notice ?!

Maybe you just need to get a set of xr2 stickers for the cowl.

I have got a XR2 powerhead that I would swop- just rebuilt and sitting at Ocean Racing- could you confirm the exact spec of your motor

Trailer Bloke,
If your powerhead is just rebuilt at Ocean Racing by Geoff Purves I could be very interested as I have known Geoff for nearly 25 Yrs !
To be fair I don't know much about my engine, I have just brought it on the back of a Frode 21 and it is ex ski race. All that I can tell you is that it starts on the button and sounds as crackly as I always remember. Its missing the flywheel cover, the head bolts are a little rusty the wiring is good, spark plugs run clean. Will swap complete with fuel pump, (Bosch type). Alternatively what sort of money are you after for your powerhead as I would consider an outright purchase?

Mines from Geoff as well! Maybe Geoff could look over yours and advise on its condition if you wanted to do a swap?
