My Valver ( Whats it worth please ?)

[Cableguy]

Sorry if this is the wrong section , it was the most appropriate i could find based on the headings.

Its been short lived , but i bought this car as a track car. After doing some work and getting to know the car i actually think its too good for me to stack in to a barrier :D

If people dont mind , could you tell me what its worth so i can sell it and get a less worthwhile example to track slag.

Bad bits

Sunroof was leaking and has been siliconed in , im in talks with a guy on the forum to get one delivered so should be able to sort that before a sale.

Passenger window goes up slow , needs the runners greasing which i will probably get around to this weekend

Couple of small holes from self tappers in the door cards around speaker area from large speakers being fitted.

Other than this its general age really , odd dint/scratch and the odd burn/tear in the interior but overall the car is very very straight and clean im just really honest as i hate giving false hope.

Few pics

Lots of pics sorry , lol.

Apprently the car used to run 170 bhp , persoanlly i would say 155 - 160, its not shy and feels good on power

Any input appreciated, cheers guys.

[webby]

1200-1500 maybe? a power graph would help to show its not a standard valver engine. and its not going to be to everyone's taste. pop it up on piston heads for 1500 imo.

[Cableguy]

Only thing not standard internally would be the cams. This is why i only estimated 15 bhp over stock for the exhaust, filter and chip. Being a rebuild the compression is as new aswell.

I understand the taste thing, ive tried to tone it down a lot , all thats left to do is repaint the bonnet and/or wheels imo. I have the standard steering wheel to go on this weekend.

If anybody wants to check the cams out , i would be happy for them to bring a rocker gasket and inpsect themselves, i have nothing to hide :)

Cheers for the input webby, ill prob make a proper for sale thread later this week after i get some more ideas on what to price it at.

[webby]

am sure u can read the cam profile behind the dizzy m8???

[Cableguy]

Oohhh , what am i looking for in terms of stock and kent ?

[webby]

now that i cant tell u rofl. may need someone like craig or dan who fit them to tell you. maybe take the dizzy off and if u can see a code etc, take a picture or note the code down? and pop it up on here or do a google search?
