Morning everyone. I have a dilemma. I want a bit more ooomph from my MK2 2000 engine. I’m not bothered about top end, more acceleration up to around 60 mph . I suppose the easier option would be to fit a 2.5 lump, but part of me would like to keep the engine I already have, and just fit some upgrades, I already have a Chris Witor super sport exhaust, so would be looking at an extractor manifold plus a hotter camshaft, as well as getting the engine refurbished, new shells, head skim, gas flowed etc. So before I start to part with my hard earned money, does anyone have a known good 2.5 engine for sale? I’m in no rush to buy one and am willing to travel for the right one. Thanks. Adrian.

Just bought myself a 2500S engine from Andy Harrison. Now looking forward to getting it fitted along with an extractor manifold and lightened flywheel. At least I’ll be able to see off those Nissan Micras now!!
