yes mate i do! but i have a customer how is desprate for one now! and i dont have a shipment coming until the middle/end next month wich is a bummer!
its more cost effective to bring 6/8 p/heads and parts over in one go than just one engine!
cheers mate.

He's got 2 260's Boath are £2000, or £3000, with new ecu. Said that he wants £4000 for a complete 280,thats just had its first rebuild, the other one wasnt his, had low hours, but didn't no what they wanted for it. No it was a long shaft offy though.
