Even though it's a very good price it's a bit beyond my needs or plans!
If I do rebuild I'm looking at a smaller turbo and faster spool, possibly a MD321T or SC46 but on a closed deck 2.5.
It all depends on the state of the engine when I take the heads off, hopefully the bores etc. are all 100% then I can reuse all the main components.
Current thinking if all is well is to get Alyn to do a closed deck insert then rebuild with new seals and bearings, Cosworth stopper HG and the Cosworth high tension 11mm head studs. Adding a head refresh and possible light port & polish if funds allow. I'd downsize the turbo as mentioned above to give a high torque fast spooling road car still around the 450 mark.
If the engine is fubar I'll probably go the 2.1 route on a CDB or break it.
