engine rebuild costs/mileage?

[bill.]

At what age/mileage would you think a williams engine would be in need of a rebuild, and how much are you talking from a reputable company? are you looking at a grand or more?

Is 100k at lot for a williams engine, or would it still have a lot of life left in it yet? saying it has been well serviced!

I am asking as i dont want to fork out for a williams and then have to spend a shed load on rebuilding it, just been down that route with a cossie, and it has put a massive whole in my wallet, so i want to be on the safe side this time, lol

100k isnt a lot of mileage for these engines tbh


they jus keep goin if they well looked after.


id say give stan a bell for costs etc.


as a rough guide iv pretty much rebuilt one in me own time, weekends mainly in less than 2 weekends..at a leisurely pace.id say a couple days, three tops for complete strip down/rebuild of all parts, as for costs, depends how far u wanna go tbh, obviously replacing all pumps/ancilleries as well will add to the overall cost, but could save money in the long run.

Looking at around 1500+ for a rebuild.

Mine is on 93k and still going strong, as are many other f7r's!

Mine will hopefully be getting the "works" soon.

Undecided whether to keep std inlet. If i went down the ITB route id want a fully lightened and balanced bottom end with possibly forged conrods just so i could up the revs even more, and with some agressive cams be looking at some crazy power! But thats all fooking tonnes of money!

cheers for the plug 2live!

I can guarantee that i can do a full rebuild cheaper than any other business can at the moment. (possibily excluding mates/dads rates!).

i can also carry out custom work inc head flow development, itb's, cams, rods, pistons etc etc

also need to get my beast sorted

[Gav]

if you do a full rebuild for less than £300 mate then yer i guess u r cheap


but i was just letting u know my dad does awsome jobs for super cheap cuz he wants to build a portfolio..

But he has shit loads of williamsclio business on at the moment so no need to fight for the business
