Hi viewers , I've been asked for a bit more detail on the Engine:

 

here it is being used as a "mule" for measuring up - note the red top infill was swapped onto the engine I used in my car from this one, this, for sale motor,  now has a black one  . I also have a green alloy one ( needs painting) which i will throw in:

This is not the engine I eventaully fitted to my car as I'd already tarted the other one up before I bought this one ( http://homepage.ntlworld.com/hamhouse/westfield/upgrades/IMG_6633%20(Small).JPG ). I used it as a mule because i hadn't fitted the clutch and it was easy to pop it on and off the gearbox and it didn't matter if I scratched it.

 

And here wrapped for storage - bores oiled ( which you need to blow out!!)

Has "vee" type front pulley * which can be swapped without undonig the dreaded centre bolt. It had a new cam belt before i bought it, but you'd want to swap that!

* doesn't include* manifolds, alternator, associated bracketry

 

*includes*

 

Dizzy and coil, starter motor, plug leads ( and plugs!), inbuilt crank sensor ( I stole the o ring seal for my car, oil pressure switch also loose),  alloy sump ( I've a spare too if you want that for butchery) thermostat housing ( and stat)  lightweight earlier type flywheel:

For anyone sitting on the fence.... Yukspeed will sell you an inlet manifold, adapter plate, clutch ,release arm, spigot bearing etc to suit a type 9 gearbox.  The Westfield exhaust manifold fits narrow or wide cars (mine was a narrow).The engine so fitted in my car produced 164 BHP  on 45's (NMS figures) with no other mods and gives loads of torque. If you upgrade from a x/flow the hole in the bonnet lines up ok!

Hammy, Hi mate - the bonnet is a cracker - many thanks - sadly though it doesnt fit my car as I think it is for an SEi not an SE - it wont fit mine anyway - therefore can I shamelessly use the photo you posted originally and resurrect the thread to sell it to another member of the forum

The bonnet does fit an SE narrow - maybe you are not a hi line body ??? - I had it in mine - it might have relaxed a bit from hanging on the wall and be wider at the base now, , but it defo fits the narrow car!!

Ill look at post cost for the half shaft

 

 

 Bonnet fitted !!!
